Second: Is the speaker The Gentile Kings of the Earth? The speaker cannot be the Gentile Kings for several reasons. To begin with the chiastic structure in 52:7, 10; 53:1 reveals the speaker is the same as the individual on the mountains in 52:7 which NO ONE claims is the Gentile Kings. Is. 52:7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that brings goodnews, that publishes peace; that brings goodnews of good, that publishes salvation, that says to Zion: "Your God reigns!" Is. 52:10 A. YHWH B. has made bare his holy arm C. in the eyes of all the nations C. and all the ends of the earth B. shall see the salvation A. of our Elohim. Is. 53:1 Who has believed our report? And to whom is the arm of YHWH revealed? Clearly the "arm of YHWH" in 53:1 is the "report" of 53:1 Clearly the "arm of YHWH" in 53:1 is "his holy arm" in 52:10 Clearly "see the salvation" of 52:10 is "bare his holy arm" of 52:10 Clearly the "publishes salvation" of 52:7 = "see the salvation" of 52:10 Therefore the "report" of 53:1f is being given by the figure on the mountains who is certainly NOT the Gentile Kings. The text of 52:15 specificly tells us that the Gentile kings are silent they have nothing to say, they are NOT delivering a report. If it was 51 www.servantofmessiah.org
