| Résumé: | Isaiah 42:1–9 is not only a songabout the redemptive servant but a text rich with linguistic and thematic echoes of temple themes. The servant was a representative who would transform Israel into a holy nation by inviting the people back to the temple to reestablish a covenantal relationship with YHWH. Viewing Isaiah’s servant songs as temple texts adds to our understanding of the identity and role of Isaiah’s servant. As we analyze the ritual and liturgical aspects, it becomes clear that the servant functions as a priest. Isaiah 42 describes the servant’s call and outlines aspects of his commission. The priest’s commission parallels the role of the high priest functioning in his capacity within the sanctuary.(pp. 7–32) |
