A Prophetic Paradox
Commentators see a stunningly precise prophecy in this verse. Humans intended the ultimate disgrace for the Servant, assigning him a grave "with the wicked." However, God's sovereign plan intervened, and he was buried "with a rich man in his death." This was fulfilled when Jesus, crucified with criminals, was buried in the new tomb of the wealthy Joseph of Arimathea.
