Isaiah 53 SERIES - Verse 9

 Commentary of Charles Spurgeon, Adam Clarke & Matthew Henry
 
And he made his grave with the wicked, 

and with the rich in his death; 
because he had done no violence, 
neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Vs.9 
 
He was stricken to death, to the grave which he made with the wicked
---for he was crucified between two thieves, as if he had been the worst of the three 
---and yet with the rich, for he was buried in a sepulchre that
belonged to Joseph, an honorable counsellor. 
 
Though he died with the wicked, and according to the common course of dealing with criminals should have been buried with them in the place where he was crucified, yet God here foretold, and Providence so ordered it, that he should make his grave with the innocent, with the rich, as a mark of distinction put between him and those that really deserved to die, even in his sufferings. 
 
And, whereas he was called that deceiver, he never deserved that character; for there was no deceit in his mouth,....He did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth. 
He never offended either in word or deed....The judge that condemned owned he found no fault in him, and the centurion that executed him professed that certainly he was a righteous man. 
 
How clearly you have before you here our blessed Redeemer.
