NASB | Romans 8:3 For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 8:3 For what the Law could not do [that is, overcome sin and remove its penalty, its power] being weakened by the flesh [man's nature without the Holy Spirit], God did: He sent His own Son in the likeness of sinful man as an offering for sin. And He condemned sin in the flesh [subdued it and overcame it in the person of His own Son], [Lev 7:37] |
Subject: Why is 'offering' in italics |
Bible Note: Hank, thanks from a visually impaired person. My reading software picked up your answer quite nicely. I would ask why the word 'offering' was not added to @ Corinthians second occurance of the word 'sin'. People who are not familiar with the Old Testament 'type' or who wish to ignore that part of the Holy Scripture would not say Jesus became sin or a sinner or unholy on the cross? |
