But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed.

About This Quote

When Jesus was crucified by the Romans, he endured great suffering. He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. The verse above speaks of the healing that comes to us through Jesus’s sufferings. It shows that when we suffer, God promises to bring peace.

But because of the extent of Jesus’s suffering, it seems like all of humanity was healed by his crucifixion. The passage suggests how God uses our suffering to bring healing to our world.
