What does the Bible say about Jesus being cut off?

Answered in 1 source

Isaiah 53:8 states that Jesus was cut off from the land of the living for the transgressions of His people.

The phrase 'cut off' in Isaiah 53:8 indicates that Jesus was violently separated from those who were living, which signifies His death. He was stricken not for His own sins, for He had none, but for the transgressions of His people. This death was foreordained by God as the penalty for sin, highlighting Jesus' role as a penal substitute who took upon Himself the punishment His people deserved. Thus, Isaiah vividly portrays both the agony of Christ and the purpose of His sacrificial death, clearly indicating that His suffering and death were necessary for the redemption of His chosen ones.
