Isaiah 42
YHWH introduces His Servant who will bring justice to the nations with gentleness and compassion, opening the eyes of the blind and freeing prisoners.[1][2] YHWH then declares His power to overcome all obstacles and judgment against those who trust in idols, while Israel, despite receiving signs and laws, remains spiritually blind and deaf due to disobedience.[1][2]
