Isaiah: The Beauty And Character Of Jesus

In this paper, I will be illustrating through Isaiah the beauty and character of Jesus. I will be doing this by looking at the aspects of Jesus ' beauty as the Bridegroom, King, and Jesus beauty as the Servant of all, and Anointed Conqueror. "In that day the Branch of the LORD shall be beautiful and glorious…" Isaiah 4:2. The clearest Old Testament narrative of the revelation of the messianic redeemer as Bridegroom, King, and Judge is found in Isaiah 61-63. "For Jerusalem 's sake, I will not rest until her righteousness goes forth as brightness… You shall also be a Crown of glory...and a royal diadem in the hand of your God…you shall be called Hephzibah… for the Lord delights in you…as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall your God rejoice over you… The Lord has sworn by His right…"Surely I will no longer give your grain as food for your enemies…prepare the way for the people… Build up the highway!...the Lord has proclaimed to the end of the world…Your salvation is coming; Behold, His reward is with Him." …show more content…
32:24-32). The name Israel literally means "Prince with God." Jesus ' servanthood is the perfect embodiment of that, all that God called Israel and the nations to be like. The Father ordained that Jesus is a servant of the people who hated and detested Him. Jesus was not affronted at Israel 's rejection but continued to be a servant to them. In the millennial kingdom, He will rule over all nations as the Servant of all the rulers of the nations. "Thus says the Lord (the Father)…to Him (Jesus) whom man despises, to Him whom the nation (Israel) abhors, to the Servant of rulers: "Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the Lord (the Father) who is faithful…has chosen You."
