It is used to describe physical injury, emotional distress, and spiritual brokenness, often in the context of God's redemptive work. Old Testament Usage In the Old Testament, the concept of being bruised is introduced early in the narrative of Scripture. <a href="/genesis/3-15.htm">Genesis 3:15</a> is a foundational verse where God speaks to the serpent after the fall of man: "And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel" . Here, the term "strike" is often interpreted as "bruise" in other translations, indicating a prophetic reference to the coming Messiah who would be bruised by Satan but ultimately triumph over him. <a href="/isaiah/53-5.htm">Isaiah 53:5</a> is another critical passage where the suffering servant is described: "But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed" . The word "crushed" here is synonymous with being bruised, highlighting the Messiah's suffering for the sins of humanity. This passage is pivotal in understanding the sacrificial role of Christ, who bore the physical and spiritual bruises of sin on behalf of mankind. New Testament Fulfillment In the New Testament, the fulfillment of these Old Testament prophecies is seen in the life and work of Jesus Christ. <a href="/matthew/12-20.htm">Matthew 12:20</a> quotes <a href="/isaiah/42-3.htm">Isaiah 42:3</a>, saying, "A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not extinguish, till He leads justice to victory" . This passage emphasizes Christ's gentle and compassionate nature, showing His care for the weak and downtrodden. The imagery of a bruised reed symbolizes those who are fragile and vulnerable, whom Christ came to restore rather than destroy. <a href="/luke/4-18.htm">Luke 4:18</a> records Jesus reading from the scroll of Isaiah in the synagogue: "The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed" . The term "oppressed" can be understood as those who are bruised by life's hardships and sin. Jesus' mission includes healing and liberation for those who are spiritually and emotionally bruised. Theological Implications The concept of being bruised in Scripture is deeply connected to the themes of sin, suffering, and redemption. It underscores the reality of human brokenness and the need for divine intervention. The bruising of Christ is central to the Christian understanding of atonement, where His suffering and sacrifice provide the means for healing and reconciliation with God. Moreover, the imagery of a bruised reed not being broken reflects God's grace and mercy towards humanity. It reassures believers of God's compassion and His desire to restore and uphold those who are weak and struggling. This theme is a source of comfort and hope, encouraging believers to trust in God's redemptive power and His ability to bring healing to their lives.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(imp. & p. p.) of Bruise.<a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div>BRUISE; BRUISEDbrooz, broozd: The noun occurs in <a href="/isaiah/1-6.htm">Isaiah 1:6</a> the King James Version, "bruises and putrifying sores," as the translation of chabbarah.
