Today we are going to look at the passage in Isaiah 52:13—53:12. This section has been referred to as the Holy of Holies of the Old Testament because in it we see the ultimate Truth that lies behind the whole sacrificial system that God gave to Israel.
It is easy for people in the modern world to take “pot shots” at God in regards to the “senseless” killing of so many animals. Yet, even the Bible itself tells us that God did not take pleasure in the killing of animals. No, animals are not equivalent to humans. They were not made in the image of God; with the ability to reflect God’s nature. However, neither was God pleased by their mere deaths. We might ask ourselves the question, “If God wanted to communicate with man then what would the problems be?” Think about it.
