Isaiah 53:5-6: But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—everyone—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

The phrase “with His stripes we are healed” Of what are we healed from? Is it a physical healing? Is that it? Let us let Scriptures interpret Scriptures. 1Pe_2:24 says, “Who his own self bares our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.” Healed of what? Peter makes it quite clear that we are healed of our trespasses and sins. Now notice that marvelous sixth verse. It begins with “all” and ends with “all.” “All we like sheep have gone astray”—not some of us, but all of us. What is the problem with mankind? What is your basic and my basic problem? It is stated in this clause: “We have turned everyone to his own way.” That is our problem. Man has gone his way, neglecting God's way. Living life on his own.  The Scripture further says: “There is a way which seemed right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death” (Pro_14:12). Another proverb admonishes: “In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths” (Pro_3:6). Although our Lord Jesus said, “… I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (Joh_14:6), we have turned everyone to his own way.

Beloved he suffered the chastisement of God in order to obtain the believer's peace with God. By His stripes, we are healed. The stripe that caused His death has brought salvation to those for whose sins He died.
