Reading Isaiah 53 had inspired me to paint this painting.

"Who has believed our message?
...
He has no stately form or majesty
That we should look upon Him,
...
He was despised and forsaken of men,
A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief
...
Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
...
But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities
...
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him
...
He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He did not open His mouth
...
Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great,
And He will divide the booty with the strong;
Because He poured out Himself to death,
And was numbered with the transgressors;
Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the transgressors."
