AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations, but One who has been tempted [knowing exactly how it feels to be human] in every respect as we are, yet without [committing any] sin. |
Subject: Can He sympathize with EVERY weakness? |
Bible Note: Cheryl One more thought. Some will say "how can Jesus be a sympathetic high priest since he never sinned etc. How can he sympathize with the immoral person etc. What we must remember that although Jesus never sinned and could not sin, that upon Calvarys cross, he was made sin for us, and as such he experience the punishment on the cross for those sins. He knows the consequences of sins, because he bore them upon the cross. Praise his name. Robert |
