Isaiah 53:6 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

All we All mankind; like sheep Which are exceedingly apt to go astray, and lose themselves; have gone astray From God, and from the way of truth and duty; of wisdom, piety, and virtue; of holiness and happiness. We have turned every one to his own way In general, to the way of sin, which may well be called a man's own way, because sin is natural to us, inherent in us, born with us; and, in particular, to those several paths which several men choose, according to their different opinions and circumstances. And the Lord hath laid Hebrew, hath made to meet on him, as all the rivers meet in the sea. The iniquity of us all

Not properly, for he knew no sin; but the punishment of iniquity, as the word עון is frequently used. That which was due for all the sins of all mankind, which must needs be so heavy a load, that if he had not been God as well as man he must have sunk under the burden.

Isaiah 53:6

6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laidb on him the iniquity of us all.
