What does the Bible say about Christ as a servant?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible describes Christ as the 'servant' whom God upholds, demonstrating His mission to bring good tidings and salvation to His people.

In Isaiah 42:1-4, Christ is portrayed as the servant of God, elected and dearly beloved by Him. He is empowered by the Spirit to bring judgment and truth to the Gentiles. Unlike mere human servants, who may fail or grow weary, Jesus is declared to not fail nor be discouraged. His mission is characterized by gentleness and compassion, indicated by phrases like 'a bruised reed shall He not break,' which highlights His purpose to restore rather than to destroy. Therefore, the embodiment of the servant in Christ signifies God's ultimate plan for salvation and the fulfillment of His promises.
