The scroll of Isaiah, a significant prophetic book, was given to Jesus, indicating the high regard for Isaiah's writings. Isaiah is often quoted in the New Testament, highlighting its messianic prophecies. The act of handing the scroll to Jesus signifies His authority and the fulfillment of prophecy. Isaiah's prophecies, written around 700 years before Christ, contain numerous references to the coming Messiah, which Jesus fulfills. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written: Persons / Places / Events 1.

The Mission of Christ Jesus' mission is to bring spiritual freedom and healing, a message that remains relevant for believers today. The Rejection of Jesus The initial rejection by His hometown serves as a reminder of the challenges believers may face when sharing the Gospel. The Importance of Scripture in Worship The setting in the synagogue highlights the role of Scripture in worship and teaching, encouraging believers to prioritize it in their spiritual lives.(17) The book of the prophet Esaias.--The Law--i.e., the Pentateuch--was commonly written on one long roll. The other books, in like manner--singly or combined, according to their length--were written on rolls of parchment, and were unrolled from the cylinder to which they were fastened. Here, it is clear, Isaiah formed a roll by itself. It is a natural inference from the fact that it was given to Him, that it contained the prophetic lesson for the day. In the calendar of modern Jews, the lessons from Isaiah run parallel with those from Deuteronomy. The chapter which He read stands as the second lesson for the day of Atonement. We cannot prove that the existing order obtained in the time of our Lord's ministry, but everything in Judaism rests mainly on old traditions; and there is therefore nothing extravagant in the belief that it was on the day of Atonement that the great Atoner thus struck what was the key-note of His whole work. When he had opened the book.--Better, when He had unrolled. Verse 17. - And there was delivered unto him the Book of the Prophet Esaias. In the sabbath service there were two lessons read. The first was always taken from the Pentateuch (the Law). The five books of Moses were written on parchment, (usually) between two rollers, and the day's lesson was left unrolled for the reader's convenience. The Prophets were on single rollers, no special portion being left open. It has been suggested that the great and famous Messianic passage read by our Lord was the lesson for the day. This is quite uncertain; indeed, it is more probable that Jesus, when the roll of Isaiah was handed to him by the ruler of the synagogue, specially selected the section containing this passage.Parallel Commentaries ...
