Iz 53,1 - V nasledujúcich veršoch hovorí o Pánovom služobníkovi prorok, a to v mene celého národa, preto hovorí v množnom počte. Od verša 7 hovorí zase Boh. Verš 1 rozumej: Prorok bude hovoriť neuveriteľnú vec, ale kto by pochopil, čo Božia moc ("Pánovo rameno") koná?
Iz 53,2 - Ľudia by si mysleli, že Pánov služobník bude aj svojím pôvodom veľký. No vyrástol pred Bohom ako nezbadaná ratoliestka, ako zaznávaný koreň, ktorý okrem toho vyrástol zo zeme suchej, nie je teda veľmi mocný. Takto označuje prorok chudobný pôvod Mesiášov, ktorého už 11,1.10 volá "ratolesť", "výhonok", "koreň", a aj tam pripomína jeho pôvod z bezvýznamnej rodiny Jesseho.
Iz 53,4-6 - Tieto verše hovoria o zástupnom utrpení Mesiáša. Bol nevinný, trpel za nás.
Iz 53,7 - Slová Vulgáty "obetovaný bol" ani prekladateľ, sv. Hieronym, nerozumel o obete na kríži, o tej je reč až vo verši 10. Vyslovuje sa tu len ochota Pánovho služobníka, ako prijíma utrpenie a nesie ho ako tichý baránok.
Iz 53,8 - Z úzkosti, ktorú pretrpel už pred odsúdením, a zo súdneho pokračovania vliekli ho na smrť, ktorú podstúpil pre hriechy svojho ľudu. Počínanie mučiteľov naplňuje proroka úžasom, že volá: "Kto pomyslí na jeho pokolenie?", na pokolenie, ktoré ho vydalo na smrť. Kto by toto pokolenie pochopil a dostatočne odsúdil?
Iz 53,9 - Toto sa doslovne splnilo pri smrti Kristovej. Spasiteľ zomrel medzi zločincami, bolo by sa zdalo ako zrejmé, že aj pohreb bude mať nečestný, medzi zločincami. Predsa, čo nik nečakal, boháč Jozef z Arimatey prepustil mu vlastný hrob (Mt 27,57).
Iz 53,10 - Spasiteľ bude mať potomstvo, veriacich, až do skončenia sveta, ba i vo večnosti budú mu ľudia vďační za dielo vykúpenia.
Iz 53,11 - Tento ťažký verš treba rozumieť tak, že Pánov služobník bude hľadieť na veľké výsledky svojho utrpenia.
Iz 53,12 - Boh mu dal moc nad hriešnikmi, ktorých vykúpil, keď sa dal pripočítať medzi hriešnikov, hoci sám bol nevinný a trpel len za viny iných. Hriešnikmi boli tí, čo ho umučili, on sa však za nich modlil. Aj mimovoľne sa nám tu zjaví pred duševným zrakom Kalvária, kde medzi lotrami krváca Kristus a modlí sa: "Otče, odpusť im…" Kto číta evanjelium a iné novozákonné spisy, tomu netreba dokazovať, ako sa predpovede tejto Izaiášovej piesne splnili na Ježišovi Nazaretskom. Umučenie Ježišovo, zakrvavenú jeho postavu, jeho tichosť by ani očitý svedok nebol opísal živšie.
