Jesus' Crucifixion Beatings and the Book of Proverbs

Meer over het boek

Exploring the theological significance of Jesus' sufferings, David Wenkel examines the reasons behind his beatings prior to the crucifixion. He argues that these sufferings illustrate God's wisdom in providing a substitute for sinners, drawing connections to the language of Proverbs. By contextualizing Jesus' experiences within the broader biblical narrative, from Eden to Israel's history, Wenkel highlights the fulfillment of God's loving plan of salvation through Jesus, who endured humiliation despite being without fault.
