As we've been seeing in chapters 41-48, Israel, God's Servant, needed to be redeemed. But at the end of chapter 48, we discover that the redemption of the servant from Babylon does not solve the problem. The redemption from Babylon has no more power to change the people of God than the redemption from Egypt did.
And so Yahweh, the Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says, "Oh that you had paid attention to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea..."
But because the Servant is still blind and deaf, "There is no peace for the wicked."
