Le but de notre Dieu saint et juste était de sauver son Église, mais leur péché ne pouvait rester impuni. Il était donc nécessaire que la punition de ce péché soit transférée de ceux qui la méritaient mais ne pouvaient la supporter, à celui qui ne la méritait pas mais pouvait la supporter.
John Owen, Meditation on the Glory of Christ, 1684, ch. 9.
The purpose of our holy and righteous God was to save His church, but their sin could not go unpunished. It was, therefore, necessary that the punishment for that sin be transferred from those who deserved it but could not bear it, to one who did not deserve it but was able to bear it.
John Owen, Meditation on the Glory of Christ, 1684, ch. 9.
