EXPLANATION:

Mat 12:17 This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:

Mat 12:18 “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

Mat 12:19 He will not wrangle or cry aloud, nor will any one hear his voice in the streets;

Mat 12:20 he will not break a bruised reed or quench a smoldering wick, till he brings justice to victory;

Mat 12:21 and in his name will the Gentiles hope.”
