1 | Did Jesus Need to Become Perfect? | Heb 2:10 | Kat | 11541 | ||
I do agree that we need to be careful about how we interpret the Word. In the Hebrew 2:10 that is posted, I understand it to mean; The concept of a suffering Messiah was a real stumbling block to the Jews. The problem must be tackled by declaring that the sufferings of the Cross were an integral part of God's redemptive plan. In fact, Christ was made perfect through the suffering of death. Not that His deity lacks perfection but His humanity was vocationally perfected. That is, as Man, Jesus was enabled through suffering to become the captain of man's salvation; suffering allows Him to experientially empathize with us (v.18), and death was the means of His destroying Satan (v. 14) and securing our redemption (9:12). It is so easy to read a scripture and take it to mean something other than what it is really talking about. I am not saying that this is what you did, I am agreeing that one really has to focus on the Word very carefully. Didn't mean to suggest anything other than just adding my opinion. Kat |
