Context of Matthew 12:16
14But the Pharisees went out and conspired against Him, as to how they might destroy Him. 15But Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. Many followed Him, and He healed them all, and warned them not to tell who He was. 17This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: 18“Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen; My Beloved in whom My soul is well-pleased; I will put My Spirit upon Him, And He shall proclaim justice to the Gentiles.
