2 | Is this related to propitiation? | Ex 21:30 | BradK | 173507 | ||
Dear amazing, Propitiation can be explained by looking at 1 John 2:2, "and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world." To be "propitiated" basically means to be satisfied. God is satisfied with Jesus' death on the cross as the payment of our sins. Exodus 21:30 is dealing with the laws about slaves. The Commentary Critical offers this insight on the verse: "If there be laid on him a sum of money, etc.—Blood fines are common among the Arabs as they were once general throughout the East. This is the only case where a money compensation, instead of capital punishment, was expressly allowed in the Mosaic law." [Jamieson, Robert, A. R. Fausset, A. R. Fausset ;. A Commentary, Critical and Explanatory] I hope this helps, BradK |
