Symbolic or Factual?
Q: You write of 1 Pe. 2:24 “…by whose stripes ye were healed” to mean physical healing, whereas I have always understood it as symbolic of Christ healing our wounded souls. After all, it’s a quote from Isaiah 53 which speaks allegorically of the lost as sheep gone astray. Am I missing something?
A: Lovely question! There will be joy in your heart when you discover the answer.
Ask the LORD to open your spiritual eyes to perceive what He wants you to see in this scripture.
