Clean : How the Jewish Roots of Atonement Unlock the Meaning of Christ's Sacrifice
Overview
The mechanism of Christ's atonement continues to be a source of controversy and confusion in the church. While some Christians intuitively sense injustice and/or incoherence in their understanding of atonement, other believers simply lack clarity regarding how Christ's life, death, resurrection, ascension, blood, and priesthood all somehow work together to save us from sin. This book explores the Torah's framework of atonement to elucidate how the Jewish apostles would have understood the mechanism of removing sin through Christ's sacrifice and priestly ministry. Concise and to the point, CLEAN offers a fresh biblical perspective of Christ's atonement that helps connect the Old and New Testament into one unified story. Contents I.
