Isaiah 53 SERIES - Verse 12

 Commentary of Charles Spurgeon, Adam Clarke & Matthew Henry
 

Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, 
and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; *because he hath poured out his soul unto death: *and he was numbered with the transgressors; *and he bare the sin of many, *and made intercession for the transgressors.
Vs.12
 
Because he has done all these good services, therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and, according to the will of the Father, he shall divide the spoil with the strong, as a great general, when he has driven the enemy out of the field, takes the plunder of it for himself and his army, which is both an
unquestionable evidence of the victory and a recompense for all the toils and perils of the battle.
 
Christ comes at his glory by conquest. He has set upon the strong man armed,.... and divided the spoil. He has vanquished principalities and powers, sin and Satan, death, the world and the flesh... 
 
He made intercession for the transgressors. - This was literally fulfilled at his death, "Father, forgive them; they know not what they do!" Luke 23:34. And to make intercession for transgressors is one part of his mediatorial offlce. Hebrews 7:25, and Hebrews 9:24.
 
 He has divided the spoils, the fruits of his conquest, to all that are his: let us therefore cast in our lot among them.
