"This was to
fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “Here is my servant,
whom I have chosen, my beloved, with home, my soul is well pleased. I will put
my Spirit upon him and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles… He will not
break a bruised reed or quench a smoldering with wick until he brings justice
to victory and in his name, the Gentiles will hope."
Father Patrick Fitzpatrick said that the
persons who gave Jesus the most trouble are the Romans, Pilate, religious
leaders like Sadducees, High Priest and temple people. Jesus was homeless, had
no permanent place to stay, and depended on welcome and hospitality of the people. He
was gentle, different, and unique and annoyed by the priests because of his
motto “people first before rules and regulations”. Compassion and not power
over others is His trademark. God made
Jesus as his chosen servant.
