But he was.
Isa. 53:6‑8,11‑12• 6All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned every one to his own way; and Jehovah hath laid upon him the iniquity of us all.
 7He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, but he opened not his mouth; he was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and was as a sheep dumb before her shearers, and he opened not his mouth.
 8He was taken from oppression and from judgment; and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living; for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
 11He shall see of the fruit of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant instruct many in righteousness; and *he* shall bear their iniquities.
 12Therefore will I assign 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 was reckoned with the transgressors; and he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors. (Isa. 53:6‑8,11‑12)
;
Dan. 9:24• 24Seventy weeks are apportioned out upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make expiation for iniquity, and to bring in the righteousness of the ages, and to seal the vision and prophet, and to anoint the holy of holies. (Dan. 9:24)
;
Zech. 13:7• 7Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, even against the man that is my fellow, saith Jehovah of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered, and I will turn my hand upon the little ones. (Zech. 13:7)

;
Rom. 3:24‑26• 24being justified freely by his grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus;
 25whom God has set forth a mercy-seat, through faith in his blood, for the shewing forth of his righteousness, in respect of the passing by the sins that had taken place before, through the forbearance of God;
 26for the shewing forth of his righteousness in the present time, so that he should be just, and justify him that is of the faith of Jesus. (Rom. 3:24‑26)
;
Rom. 4:25• 25who has been delivered for our offences and has been raised for our justification, it will be reckoned. (Rom. 4:25)
;
Rom. 5:6‑10,15‑21• 6for we being still without strength, in the due time Christ has died for the ungodly.
 7For scarcely for the just man will one die, for perhaps for the good man some one might also dare to die;
 8but God commends *his* love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us.
 9Much rather therefore, having been now justified in the power of his blood, we shall be saved by him from wrath.
 10For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in the power of his life.
 15But shall not the act of favour be as the offence? For if by the offence of one the many have died, much rather has the grace of God, and the free gift in grace, which is by the one man Jesus Christ, abounded unto the many.
 16And shall not as by one that has sinned be the gift? For the judgment was of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification.
 17For if by the offence of the one death reigned by the one, much rather shall those who receive the abundance of grace, and of the free gift of righteousness, reign in life by the one Jesus Christ:)
 18so then as it was by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life.
 19For as indeed by the disobedience of the one man the many have been constituted sinners, so also by the obedience of the one the many will be constituted righteous.
 20But law came in, in order that the offence might abound; but where sin abounded grace has overabounded,
 21in order that, even as sin has reigned in the power of death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Rom. 5:6‑10,15‑21)

Heb. 9:12‑15• 12nor by blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, has entered in once for all into the holy of holies, having found an eternal redemption.
 13For if the blood of goats and bulls, and a heifer's ashes sprinkling the defiled, sanctifies for the purity of the flesh,
 14how much rather shall the blood of the Christ, who by the eternal Spirit offered himself spotless to God, purify your conscience from dead works to worship the living God?

• If verse 4 is their confession of the truth concerning His wonderful life of sympathetic and sorrowful service, verse 5 gives the confession they will make as the true meaning of His death dawns upon them. They discover that He died as a Substitute, and it was even for themselves. (“Isaiah 53” by F.B. Hole)
• Verse 5 is the central verse of this chapter, which really begins with verse 13 of chapter 52. It is therefore the central verse of the central chapter of the central section of this latter part of Isaiah. And without a doubt it predicts truth which is absolutely central to our soul’s salvation and in our soul’s experience. The transgressions, the iniquities were mine, each of us has to say, but the wounding, the bruising were not mine but His. The peace, the healing are mine, but the chastisement, the stripes that procured them, were not mine but His. In all this He was my Substitute. (“Isaiah 53” by F.B. Hole)
