NASB | 1 Peter 2:24 and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Peter 2:24 He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross [willingly offering Himself on it, as on an altar of sacrifice], so that we might die to sin [becoming immune from the penalty and power of sin] and live for righteousness; for by His wounds you [who believe] have been healed. |
Subject: did Jesus die for our sins or sickness |
Bible Note: (1) I agree, healing is not guaranteed. However, it is a provision in the atonement. (2) I agree that the word for healing refers to the physical and spiritual, that is, the whole man. (3) I do not think that limiting Isaiah 53:4 it to spiritual healing is upheld by the text. See my previous posting to BradK. (4) It seems v.4 (as better rendered in the Tanakh) should also be included as setting the context. If so, then both physical and spiritual healing is included. |
