Text Information:

Since apostolic times (see Acts 8:26–39), Christians have seen parallels between the Fourth Servant Song (Isaiah 52:13–53:12) and Christ’s Passion. This reflection on that passage reminds us how the suffering Christ continues to be present in the victimized people of our own day.
