Vss. 7-9. He, the Lamb, has eternal companionship—His beloved bride; yet He bore the cross alone, forsaken of God (Matt. 27:4646And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? (Matthew 27:46)).
Vs. 13. His vesture is dipped in the blood of His enemies, but on the cross He shed His own blood for His enemies (John 19:3434But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water. (John 19:34)).
Vs. 16. His glorious title is “King of kings and Lord of lords.” On the cross Pilate wrote His title, “Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews” (John 19:1919And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS. (John 19:19)).
Vs. 21. The Lord’s enemies are slain by His Word. But when on the cross He said, “Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do” (Luke 23:3434Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. (Luke 23:34)).
