How could Jesus Christ attract and influence thousands upon thousands of people as a mortal if he was weak and frail and unappealing? I believe that as a man, he was the opposite, that not only was he humble, full of love and joy, that Christ was fully majestic, strong, commanding, beautiful and inspiring to behold. I believe that Sean 's comment is right on the mark and is inspired "...when the Lord was crucified he had no beauty in him. His face was disfigured, bloody and bruised. " This is what Isaiah was speaking about. Isaiah was not saying that our Lord and Master was not our ideal in every way as he went about doing good, day by day. Isaiah was referring to how our Lord appeared during the horrific events at the conclusion of his mortal life the atonement, the scourging, the carrying of the cross and the awful crucifixion. Otherwise, the manhood of Jesus Christ 's was inspiring, motivating and thrilling to behold. And I know that he still is!
