For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
All Commentaries on Isaiah 9:6 Go To Isaiah 9
Justin Martyr
AD 165
“A child is born to us, and a son is given to us, and the government is upon his shoulders.” This signifies the power of the cross, which, at his crucifixion, he placed on his shoulders, as shall be demonstrated more clearly as we proceed in this discourse.
