But how were they to know that this glorious destiny was reserved for Israel, since Yahweh's wonderworking power had not before been revealed to them? And while they had received no intimation of this splendid reverse of fortune that awaited him, the previous career of the Servant amply excused their failure to forecast his future. His origin was poor and contemptible, he grew up before his fellownations like a dwarfed plant in a barren soil. They found nothing attrac...
