Theology of the Body Lenten Series Part IV of IV: Redemptive Suffering: Offering Christ Crucified in our own Flesh



Since I didn't make any notes there aren't any to share.

From Isaiah 53:2-12
He had no form or comeliness that we should look 
at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. 
He was despised and rejected by men;
a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief;
and as one from whom men hide their faces 
he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows;
yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions,
he was bruised for our iniquities; 
upon him was the chastisement that made us whole, 
and with his stripes we are healed. 
All we like sheep have gone astray 
we have turned every one to his own way; 
and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted,
yet he opened not his mouth;
like a lamb that is led to the slaughter,
and like a sheep that before its shearers is dumb,
so he opened not his mouth.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away;
and as for his generation, who considered that
he was cut off out of the land of the living,
stricken for the transgression of my people?
And they made his grave with the wicked
and with a rich man in his death,
although he had done no violence,
and there was no deceit in his mouth
