Footnote
f Jesus “committed no sin” and thus did not forfeit his life. (1 Peter 2:22) Instead, he gave it for us, paying the penalty for our sins and redeeming us from death’s grip. Thus, Jesus’ death is called a “ransom” sacrifice. (Matthew 20:28) For more information on this topic, see the book What Does the Bible Really Teach? accessible at the Web site www.pr2711.com.
