In this passage we see the unlikely combination of exaltation and suffering. The Servant is crushed but is victorious. He suffers according to God's will. This was no accident. The Servant Himself was a guilt offering. He would die at Passover as the lamb sacrifice. However, the Servant will be exalted. He will have a people for Himself, He will dwell with His people forever, and He does not live in perpetual suffering but lives victoriously, sitting at the right hand of the Father, in glory and honor. This should be a comfort to us today, that Jesus has defeated death and lives to intercede for us!
