The Problems of Life Involve Sorrow
Isaiah 53:3-7
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him…


Nevertheless, when all these caveats have been entered and gladness of heart eulogized to the fullest extent, authorized by multitudinous expressions occurring throughout the entire Scriptures, it still remains beyond dispute that our Lord's life was lived in shadow, and that He died at last less because of the nails and the spear-wounds, than He did of a broken heart.

(C. H. Parkhurst, D. D.)
