This book is regarding the Lord's everlasting kingdom. He, unlike the human king, does not conquer property to enlarge his territory. The Lord's aim is to capture hearts with his love. Isaiah 53 states, "He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces; he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds, we are healed."
