Lenten Devotional for March 30


Ghent Altarpiece (center panel) - Jan van Eyck 
Songs of the Suffering Servant. The fourth song proclaims the salvific value of the Servant’s innocent suffering that will justify many and blot out their offenses. 

Isaiah 52:13-53:12: See, my servant shall prosper, he shall be raised high and greatly exalted. Even as many were amazed at him— so marred were his features, beyond that of mortals his appearance, beyond that of human beings— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall stand speechless; For those who have not been told shall see, those who have not heard shall ponder it.
