The Sin-Bearer

John 1:19-51.
The sin of the world.

'Taketh' (29) = 'beareth'.
Lamb of God is Son of God (29,34).
Sin borne by Him (29).
Dove abides on Him (32).
He bare our sins, but He knew no sin.

1 Peter 2.
He bare our sins.


He 'did no sin' (22).
He 'bare our sins' (24).
Note 'sin' in John 1:29, 'sins' in 1 Pet. 2:24.
'Own Body' (24). See Heb. 2:14,15; 10:5,10;
'The Tree' (1 Pet. 2:24) see Gal. 3:13.
Isaiah 53:11-12.
Justify many ...
bare sin of many.
'Borne griefs', 'carried sorrows','laid on Him iniquity'.
'He shall bear their iniquities',
'He bare the sin of many'.
2 Corinthians 5.
The sinless One.
The Sin -Bearer.

'Not imputing their trespasses unto them ...
For He hath made Him ...' (19,21).
'He knew no sin'. Note again how justification is
associated with the bearing of sin (21) (ref. to Isa. 53).
