Part III: Prophecies in the Tanach תנך
That Were Fulfilled
At the First Coming of the Messiah המשיח
The Rejection of the Messiah המשיח
The Messiah המשיח is the most important person in Jewish history and in world history. He is the redeemer הגואל of Israel, and of all mankind, therefore he must be described specifically and in detail by the prophets of Israel. This is one of the tenets of the thirteen declarations or principles of the Jewish faith שלשה עשר עקרים. The sixth principle, or declaration, states: “I believe with perfect faith that all of the words of the prophets are truth.”
דברי הנבאים אמת אני מאמין באמונה שלמה שכל
Messiah המשיח is referenced by the Prophets of Israel, the Torah תורה, and in the Writings כתובים , that is, in the entire Tanach.
The following is a detailed delineation by some of the prophets of Israel, and also throughout the entire Tanach תנך of the life of the Messiah המשיח in the different stages תקופות from birth to his maturity. This includes some of his accomplishments. His primary objective or mitzvah מצוה from HASHEM was the Redemption of Israel, and through extension, the rest of the human race. In light of this fact, these Hebrew Scriptures are revealed with magnificent importance and significance.
Bless HASHEM.
ברוך השם
Let the NAME of the HASHEM be blessed from now and forever.
יהי שם הי מבורך מעתה ועד עולם
The Messiah המשיח is ordained by G-d to sit on the throne of David and to rule over Israel forever.
In order for this to happen, the Messiah המשיח had to solve the problem caused by the sin of Adam.
This sin of Adam or the Yetzer Ha Ra יצר הרע rules by death. Death had to be destroyed by the Messiah of Israel המשיח של ישראל in order for him to reign on the throne of David forever. Because all of Israel and the entire human race was under the power of death, the Messiah was sent to be the redeemer – ha Goel הגואל of His people Israel and then, by extension to the rest of the nations גוים on earth.
This is according to what is written in the Scripture:
He sent redemption to His people;
He commanded His covenant forever;
His name is holy and awesome.
פְּדוּת שָׁלַח לְעַמּוֹ
צִוָּה לְעוֹלָם בְּרִיתוֹ
קָדוֹשׁ וְנוֹרָא שְׁמוֹ
Psalm 111:9 תהלים קיא:ט
This prophecy gives the order in which HASHEM works in order to establish the kingdom of the Messiah המשיח. The first thing that HASHEM must do is to send redemption. The Messiah המשיח must redeem Israel. In order to accomplish this redemption the Messiah המשיח must be without spot or blemish. First He must keep all the 613 commandments given by HASHEM, and He can never break any one of them. Second, the Messiah המשיח must become the sacrifice or the Korban קורבן for iniquity. He must fulfill all the Korbanot קרבנות given by HASHEM through Moses as written in the third book of the Torah, the book of Leviticus ויקרא.
Only then could the Messiah המשיח destroy the government השלטון of sin and the yetzer ha ra יצר הרע which was ruling through the bondage of the power of death, and liberate His people Israel into the freedom of everlasting righteousness and eternal life.
This was foretold by Daniel’s prophecy:
the anointed one will be cut off, and he will be no more
יִכָּרֵת מָשִׁיחַ וְאֵין לוֹ
to terminate the transgression
and to end sin,
and to expiate iniquity,
and to bring eternal righteousness
לְכַלֵּא הַפֶּשַׁע
וּלְהָתֵם חַטָּאוֹת
וּלְכַפֵּר עָוֹן
וּלְהָבִיא צֶדֶק עֹלָמִים
Daniel 9:26,24 דניאל ט:כו,כד
This is also prophesied by Isaiah the Prophet:
And He shall destroy on this mountain the face of the covering that covers all the peoples and the kingdom that rules over all the nations.
He will swallow up death in victory (forever), and the Lord God shall wipe the tears off every face, and the shame of His people He shall remove from upon the entire earth, for the Lord has spoken.
And they shall say on that day, “Behold, this is our God: we hoped for Him that He would save us; this is the Lord for Whom we hoped; let us rejoice and be happy with His salvation-Yeshua.” .
וּבִלַּע בָּהָר הַזֶּה פְּנֵי הַלּוֹט הַלּוֹט עַל כָּל הָעַמִּים וְהַמַּסֵּכָה הַנְּסוּכָה עַל כָּל הַגּוֹיִם
בִּלַּע הַמָּוֶת לָנֶצַח וּמָחָה אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה דִּמְעָה מֵעַל כָּל פָּנִים וְחֶרְפַּת עַמּוֹ יָסִיר מֵעַל כָּל הָאָרֶץ כִּי יְהֹוָה דִּבֵּר
וְאָמַר בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא הִנֵּה אֱלֹהֵינוּ זֶה קִוִּינוּ לוֹ וְיוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ זֶה יְהֹוָה קִוִּינוּ לוֹ נָגִילָה וְנִשְׂמְחָה בִּישׁוּעָתוֹ
Isaiah 25:7-9 ישעיה כה:ז-ט
To accomplish this the Messiah המשיח had to fulfill all that was written about him in the Torah, and also that was written about him in the Writings and the Prophets, that is the Tanach התנך.
The Torah lays out these rules for the Passover sacrifice, so the Messiah המשיח had to accomplish this redemption at the feast of the Passover according to these rules.
First: the Messiah המשיח must be without blemish or perfect (Tamim) תמים
You shall have a perfect (tamim) male lamb in its [first] year; you may take it either from the sheep or from the goats.
שֶׂה תָמִים זָכָר בֶּן שָׁנָה יִהְיֶה לָכֶם מִן הַכְּבָשִׂים וּמִן הָעִזִּים תִּקָּחוּ
Second: the Messiah המשיח must be inspected until the fourteenth day:
And you shall keep it for inspection until the fourteenth day of this month
וְהָיָה לָכֶם לְמִשְׁמֶרֶת עַד אַרְבָּעָה עָשָׂר יוֹם לַחֹדֶשׁ הַזֶּה
Third: the Messiah המשיח must be a Korban קרבן, or sacrificed:
and the entire congregation of the community of Israel shall slaughter it in the afternoon.
וְשָׁחֲטוּ אֹתוֹ כֹּל קְהַל עֲדַת יִשְׂרָאֵל בֵּין הָעַרְבָּיִם
Fourth: the blood of the Messiah המשיח must be applied to the doorposts (the mazuzot) המזוזות and lintel משקוף of each house in order to be delivered from the power of death:
And they shall take [some] of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel, on the houses in which they will eat it.
And the blood will be for you for a sign upon the houses where you will be, and I will see the blood and skip over you, and there will be no plague to destroy [you]
וְלָקְחוּ מִן הַדָּם וְנָתְנוּ עַל שְׁתֵּי הַמְּזוּזֹת וְעַל הַמַּשְׁקוֹף עַל הַבָּתִּים אֲשֶׁר יֹאכְלוּ אֹתוֹ בָּהֶם
וְהָיָה הַדָּם לָכֶם לְאֹת עַל הַבָּתִּים אֲשֶׁר אַתֶּם שָׁם וְרָאִיתִי אֶת הַדָּם וּפָסַחְתִּי עֲלֵכֶם וְלֹא יִהְיֶה בָכֶם נֶגֶף לְמַשְׁחִית
Exodus 12:5,6,7,13
In order for the Messiah המשיח to become the sacrifice (the Korban) קרבן for the redemption of Israel, he has to be rejected by the rulers of Israel.
The stone that the builders rejected became a cornerstone.
This was from the Lord; it is wondrous in our eyes.
אֶבֶן מָאֲסוּ הַבּוֹנִים הָיְתָה לְרֹאשׁ פִּנָּה
מֵאֵת יְהֹוָה הָיְתָה זֹּאת הִיא נִפְלָאת בְּעֵינֵינוּ
Psalm 118:22-23 תהלים קיח:כב-כג
The Prophets of Israel give very extensive and exhaustive descriptions of the rejection of the Messiah המשיח of Israel, and the consequent pain and suffering that he felt.
First the Messiah המשיח was betrayed and attacked by one of his closest friends:
Even my own familiar friend
in whom I trusted, who eats my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.
גַּם אִישׁ שְׁלוֹמִי
אֲשֶׁר בָּטַחְתִּי בוֹ אוֹכֵל לַחְמִי הִגְדִּיל עָלַי עָקֵב
Psalm 41:9 תהלים מא:ט
For it was not an enemy who reproached me; then I could bear it. It was not someone who hated me who magnified himself against me; I would have hid myself from him.
But it was you whom I valued as my equal, prince with me, and my esteemed friend.
Together we would devise sweet counsel; in the house of God we would walk with a multitude.
כִּי לֹא אוֹיֵב יְחָרְפֵנִי וְאֶשָּׂא לֹא מְשַׂנְאִי עָלַי הִגְדִּיל וְאֶסָּתֵר מִמֶּנּוּ
וְאַתָּה אֱנוֹשׁ כְּעֶרְכִּי אַלּוּפִי וּמְיֻדָּעִי
אֲשֶׁר יַחְדָּו נַמְתִּיק סוֹד בְּבֵית אֱלֹהִים נְהַלֵּךְ בְּרָגֶשׁ
Psalm 55:13-15 תהלים נה:יג-טו
But, as for me, when they were ill, my attire was sackcloth; I afflicted myself with fasting, and may my prayer return upon my bosom. I walked about as though it were a friend or as though it were my own brother; I was bowed with gloom as the mourning of a mother.
וַאֲנִי בַּחֲלוֹתָם לְבוּשִׁי שָׂק עִנֵּיתִי בַצּוֹם נַפְשִׁי וּתְפִלָּתִי עַל חֵיקִי תָשׁוּב
כְּרֵעַ כְּאָח לִי הִתְהַלָּכְתִּי כַּאֲבֶל אֵם קֹדֵר שַׁחֹתִי
Psalm 35:13-14 תהלים לה:יג-יד
You have estranged from me lover and friend;
my acquaintances are in a place of darkness
הִרְחַקְתָּ מִמֶּנִּי אֹהֵב וָרֵעַ מְיֻדָּעַי מַחְשָׁךְ
Psalm 88:13 תהלים פח:יג
You have estranged my friends from me. You have made me an abomination to them. I am imprisoned and cannot go out.
הִרְחַקְתָּ מְיֻדָּעַי מִמֶּנִּי שַׁתַּנִי תוֹעֵבוֹת לָמוֹ כָּלֻא וְלֹא אֵצֵא
Psalm 88:9 תהלים פח:ט
The Messiah המשיח was sold by this friend for a price of 30 pieces of silver. The friend, when he realized that he was condemned, took the pieces of silver and cast them down upon the floor of the Temple. The chief priests took the money, because they said it was blood money, and instead of putting it back into the treasury, they bought a potter’s field with it.
And I said to them: “If it pleases you, give me my price, and if not, forbear.” And they weighed out My price: thirty pieces of silver.
And the Lord said to me: Cast it to the house of the potter, for the value of the price that I was valued at by them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and I cast them to the potter from the treasury in the House of HASHEM..
וָאֹמַר אֲלֵיהֶם אִם טוֹב בְּעֵינֵיכֶם הָבוּ שְׂכָרִי וְאִם לֹא חֲדָלוּ
וַיִּשְׁקְלוּ אֶת שְׂכָרִי שְׁלֹשִׁים כָּסֶף
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהֹוָה אֵלַי הַשְׁלִיכֵהוּ אֶל הַיּוֹצֵר אֶדֶר הַיְקָר אֲשֶׁר יָקַרְתִּי מֵעֲלֵיהֶם
וָאֶקְחָה שְׁלֹשִׁים הַכֶּסֶף וָאַשְׁלִיךְ אֹתוֹ בֵּית יְהֹוָה אֶל הַיּוֹצֵר
Zechariah 11:12-13 זכריה יא:יב-יג
The Messiah המשיח is rejected, cast aside, reproached, and gazed upon by family and friends and acquaintances. He is abandoned by them.
For I have borne humiliation and reproach because of You; disgrace has covered my face.
I was strange to my brothers, and alien to the sons of my mother.
כִּי עָלֶיךָ נָשָׂאתִי חֶרְפָּה כִּסְּתָה כְלִמָּה פָנָי
מוּזָר הָיִיתִי לְאֶחָי וְנָכְרִי לִבְנֵי אִמִּי
Psalm 69:8-9 תהלים סט:ח-ט
As a result of the work of all my tormentors I have become a reproach-and even more to my neighbors. I am an object of fear to my acquaintances; those who see me outside avoid me.
I was forgotten like a dead person, out of mind; I was cast away like a utensil that was no longer useful.
For I heard the gossip, whispering slander of many, terror is all around me. When they take counsel together against me; they plotted to take my soul.
מִכָּל צֹרְרַי הָיִיתִי חֶרְפָּה
וְלִשְׁכֵנַי מְאֹד וּפַחַד לִמְיֻדָּעָ
י רֹאַי בַּחוּץ נָדְדוּ מִמֶּנִּי
נִשְׁכַּחְתִּי כְּמֵת מִלֵּב הָיִיתִי כִּכְלִי אֹבֵד
כִּי שָׁמַעְתִּי דִּבַּת רַבִּים מָגוֹר מִסָּבִיב
בְּהִוָּסְדָם יַחַד עָלַי לָקַחַת נַפְשִׁי זָמָמוּ
Psalm 31:12-14 תהלים לא:יב-יד
All who pass by have plundered him; he was a disgrace to his neighbors.
שַׁסֻּהוּ כָּל עֹבְרֵי דָרֶךְ הָיָה חֶרְפָּה לִשְׁכֵנָיו
Psalm 89:42 תהלים פט:מב
Those who sit in the gate talk about me.. I am the song of drunkards.
יָשִׂיחוּ בִי ישְׁבֵי שָׁעַר וּנְגִינוֹת שׁוֹתֵי שֵׁכָר
Psalm 69:12 תהלים סט:יב
I was a disgrace to them. When they would see me, they would shake their heads.
וַאֲנִי הָיִיתִי חֶרְפָּה לָהֶם יִרְאוּנִי יְנִיעוּן רֹאשָׁם
Psalm 109:25 תהלים קט:כה
The Messiah המשיח is plotted against by his enemies.
O G-d, willful transgressors (proud, haughty) have risen against me, and a company of mighty ones have sought my life, and they did not place You before themselves.
אֱלֹהִים זֵדִים קָמוּ עָלַי וַעֲדַת עָרִיצִים בִּקְשׁוּ נַפְשִׁי וְלֹא שָׂמוּךָ לְנֶגְדָּם
Psalm 86:14 תהלים פו:יד
For my enemies said of me, and those who watch for my soul took counsel together,
Saying, “G-d has forsaken him; pursue and seize him, for there is no rescuer.”
כִּי אָמְרוּ אוֹיְבַי לִי וְשֹׁמְרֵי נַפְשִׁי נוֹעֲצוּ יַחְדָּו
לֵאמֹר אֱלֹהִים עֲזָבוֹ רִדְפוּ וְתִפְשׂוּהוּ כִּי אֵין מַצִּיל
Psalm 71:10-11 תהלים עא:י-יא
All day long they wrest my words. All their thoughts about me are for evil.
They gather themselves together, they hide, and they watch my steps, when they wait to take my life.
כָּל הַיּוֹם דְּבָרַי יְעַצֵּבוּ עָלַי כָּל מַחְשְׁבֹתָם לָרָע
יָגוּרוּ יִצְפּוֹנוּ הֵמָּה עֲקֵבַי יִשְׁמֹרוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר קִוּוּ נַפְשִׁי
Psalm 56:5-6 תהלים נו:ה-ו
Save me from workers of iniquity, and rescue me from bloodthirsty men.
For behold, they lurked for my soul; strong men lodge against me, but not for my transgression nor for my sin, O Lord.
I am without iniquity, yet they run and prepare themselves; awaken towards me and see.
הַצִּילֵנִי מִפֹּעֲלֵי אָוֶן וּמֵאַנְשֵׁי דָמִים הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי
כִּי הִנֵּה אָרְבוּ לְנַפְשִׁי יָגוּרוּ עָלַי עַזִּים לֹא פִשְׁעִי וְלֹא חַטָּאתִי יְהֹוָה
בְּלִי עָוֹן יְרֻצוּן וְיִכּוֹנָנוּ עוּרָה לִקְרָאתִי וּרְאֵה
Psalm 59:3-5 תהלם נט:ג-ה
The Messiah המשיח is hated WITHOUT A CAUSE.
For without cause they have hidden for me a pit, yea a net; without cause they have dug it for my soul.
כִּי חִנָּם טָמְנוּ לִי שַׁחַת רִשְׁתָּם חִנָּם חָפְרוּ לְנַפְשִׁי
Psalm 35:7 תהלים גה:ז
Those who hate me without a cause are more numerous than the hairs of my head; mighty are those who would cut me off, who are my enemies because of lies; I even returned that which I did not steal.
רַבּוּ מִשַּׂעֲרוֹת רֹאשִׁי שׂנְאַי חִנָּם עָצְמוּ מַצְמִיתַי אֹיְבַי שֶׁקֶר אֲשֶׁר לֹא גָזַלְתִּי אָז אָשִׁיב
Psalm 69:4 תהלים סט:ד
Let them not rejoice over me, those who are my enemies without a cause; those who hate me without a cause wink their eyes.
אַל יִשְׂמְחוּ לִי אֹיְבַי שֶׁקֶר שׂנְאַי חִנָּם יִקְרְצוּ עָיִן
Psalm 35:19 תהלים לה:יט
May the willful sinners be shamed for they condemned me falsely; I shall converse about Your precepts.
יֵבֹשׁוּ זֵדִים כִּי שֶׁקֶר עִוְּתוּנִי אֲנִי אָשִׂיחַ בְּפִקּוּדֶיךָ
Psalm 119:78 תהלים קיט:עח
For the mouth of a wicked man and the mouth of a deceitful man have opened upon me; they spoke with me with a lying tongue.
And with words of hatred they have surrounded me, and they have fought with me without cause.
Instead of my love, they persecute me, but I am at prayer.
They have imposed upon me evil instead of good and hatred instead of my love.
כִּי פִי רָשָׁע וּפִי מִרְמָה עָלַי פָּתָחוּ דִּבְּרוּ אִתִּי לְשׁוֹן שָׁקֶר
וְדִבְרֵי שִׂנְאָה סְבָבוּנִי וַיִּלָּחֲמוּנִי חִנָּם
תַּחַת אַהֲבָתִי יִשְֹטְנוּנִי וַאֲנִי תְפִלָּה
וַיָּשִׂימוּ עָלַי רָעָה תַּחַת טוֹבָה וְשִׂנְאָה תַּחַת אַהֲבָתִי
Psalm 109:2-5 תהלים קט:ב-ה
The Messiah המשיח experiences the depths of despair, and the fear and horrors of death.
Hearken to me and answer me; I lament in my speech and I moan,
From the voice of the enemy, because of the distress of the wicked; for they accuse me of iniquity and they hate me with a vengeance.
My heart shudders within me, and terrors of death have fallen upon me.
Fear and trembling come upon me, and horror overcomes me.
הַקְשִׁיבָה לִּי וַעֲנֵנִי אָרִיד בְּשִׂיחִי וְאָהִימָה
מִקּוֹל אוֹיֵב מִפְּנֵי עָקַת רָשָׁע כִּי יָמִיטוּ עָלַי אָוֶן וּבְאַף יִשְׂטְמוּנִי
לִבִּי יָחִיל בְּקִרְבִּי וְאֵימוֹת מָוֶת נָפְלוּ עָלָי
יִרְאָה וָרַעַד יָבֹא בִי וַתְּכַסֵּנִי פַּלָּצוּת
Psalm 55:2-6 תהלים נה:ב-ו
I have sunk in muddy depths and there is no place to stand; I have come into the deep water, and the current has swept me away.
I have become weary from calling out; my throat has become parched; my eyes fail while I wait for my God.
טָבַעְתִּי בִּיוֵן מְצוּלָה וְאֵין מָעֳמָד בָּאתִי בְמַעֲמַקֵּי מַיִם וְשִׁבֹּלֶת שְׁטָפָתְנִי
יָגַעְתִּי בְקָרְאִי נִחַר גְּרוֹנִי כָּלוּ עֵינָי מְיַחֵל לֵאלֹהָי
Psalm 69:3-4 תהלים סט:ג-ד
Humiliation has broken my heart and I have become debased; I hoped for sympathy but there was none, and for comforters but I found none.
חֶרְפָּה שָׁבְרָה לִבִּי וָאָנוּשָׁה וָאֲקַוֶּה לָנוּד וָאַיִן וְלַמְנַחֲמִים וְלֹא מָצָאתִי
Psalm 69:21 תהלים סט:כא
The disciples-talmudim תלמודים and the friends of the Messiah המשיח are scattered.
O sword, awaken against My shepherd and against the man who is associated with Me! says the Lord of Hosts. Smite the shepherd, and the flock shall scatter, and I will return My hand upon the little ones.
חֶרֶב עוּרִי עַל רֹעִי וְעַל גֶּבֶר עֲמִיתִי נְאֻם יְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת הַךְ אֶת הָרֹעֶה וּתְפוּצֶיןָ הַצֹּאן וַהֲשִׁבֹתִי יָדִי עַל הַצֹּעֲרִים

Psalm 119:161 תהלים קיט:קסא
False witnesses rise up; they ask me of things that I know not.
They recompense me with evil instead of good, death to my soul.
יְקוּמוּן עֵדֵי חָמָס אֲשֶׁר לֹא יָדַעְתִּי יִשְׁאָלוּנִי
יְשַׁלְּמוּנִי רָעָה תַּחַת טוֹבָה שְׁכוֹל לְנַפְשִׁי
Psalm 35:11 תהלים לה:יא
And I was like a lamb and a bull, [that is] brought to the slaughter, and I did not know that they had devised plans about me, “Let us destroy his bread with a tree (cross), and let us cut him off from the land of the living, and let his name no longer be remembered.”
וַאֲנִי כְּכֶבֶשׂ אַלּוּף יוּבַל לִטְבּוֹחַ וְלֹא יָדַעְתִּי כִּי עָלַי חָשְׁבוּ מַחֲשָׁבוֹת נַשְׁחִיתָה עֵץ בְּלַחְמוֹ וְנִכְרְתֶנּוּ מֵאֶרֶץ חַיִּים וּשְׁמוֹ לֹא יִזָּכֵר עוֹד
Jeremiah 11:19 ירמיה יא:יט
The Messiah המשיח is silent before his accusers. He does not open his mouth to defend himself.
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he would not open his mouth; like a lamb to the slaughter he would be brought, and like a ewe that is mute before her shearers, and he would not open his mouth.
נִגַּשׂ וְהוּא נַעֲנֶה וְלֹא יִפְתַּח פִּיו
כַּשֶּׂה לַטֶּבַח יוּבָל וּכְרָחֵל לִפְנֵי גֹזְזֶיהָ נֶאֱלָמָה וְלֹא יִפְתַּח פִּיו
Isaiah 53:7 ישעיה נג:ז
But I am as a deaf person, I do not hear, and like a mute, who does not open his mouth.
וַאֲנִי כְחֵרֵשׁ לֹא אֶשְׁמָע וּכְאִלֵּם לֹא יִפְתַּח פִּיו
Psalm 38:14 תהלים לח:יד
I said, “I will guard my ways from sinning with my tongue; I will guard my mouth [as with] a muzzle while the wicked man is still before me.
I made myself dumb in silence; I was silent from good although my pain was intense.
אָמַרְתִּי אֶשְׁמְרָה דְרָכַי מֵחֲטוֹא בִלְשׁוֹנִי אֶשְׁמְרָה לְפִי מַחְסוֹם בְּעֹד רָשָׁע לְנֶגְדִּי
נֶאֱלַמְתִּי דוּמִיָּה הֶחֱשֵׁיתִי מִטּוֹב וּכְאֵבִי נֶעְכָּר
Psalm 39:2-3 תהלים לט:ב-ג
I have become mute; I will not open my mouth because You have done it.
נֶאֱלַמְתִּי לֹא אֶפְתַּח פִּי כִּי אַתָּה עָשִׂיתָ
Psalm 39:9 תהלים לט:ט
You raised the right hand of his adversaries; You caused all his enemies to rejoice.
You even turned back the sharp edge of his sword, and You did not raise him up in battle.
You have brought an end to his shining, and his throne You have cast down to earth.
You have shortened the days of his youth; You have enwrapped him with shame. Selah
הֲרִימוֹתָ יְמִין צָרָיו הִשְׂמַחְתָּ כָּל אוֹיְבָיו

הִקְצַרְתָּ יְמֵי עֲלוּמָיו הֶעֱטִיתָ עָלָיו בּוּשָׁה סֶלָה
Psalm 89:43-46 תהלים פט:מג-מו
From imprisonment and from judgment he is taken, and his generation who shall tell? For he was cut off from the land of the living; because of the transgression of my people was he altogether stricken.
מֵעֹצֶר וּמִמִּשְׁפָּט לֻקָּח וְאֶת דּוֹרוֹ מִי יְשׂוֹחֵחַ כִּי נִגְזַר מֵאֶרֶץ חַיִּים מִפֶּשַׁע עַמִּי נֶגַע לָמוֹ
Isaiah 53:8 ישעיה נג:ח
