Jesus (Yeshua‘) came as the Holy Servant of His Father on a mission to show the world what He is like and to reconcile the world to Him. This name indicates a fulfillment of the prophetic and messianic name, the “servant of the Lord.”
“Holy Servant” occurs in two verses in Acts. The Greek word pais can mean either, “child,” or “servant” depending on the context. Evidence for it being “servant” in these passages is that the Hebrew word ‘eved (servant) in Greek translations of the Old Testament is translated pais as often as it is doulos. Ben (son or child) is translated pais only once, while hyios (Greek for “son”) is used 4000 times.
