On Pascha · §2.8

The taking and the keeping

For his death did not come from sin, but he himself bears our sins and is in pain for us, and by his bruise we all were healed.

Greek

Καὶ γὰρ οὐκ ἐξ ἁμαρτίας ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ ὁ θάνατος, ἀλλὰ αὐτὸς τὰς ἁμαρτίας ἡμῶν φέρει καὶ περὶ ἡμῶν ὀδυνᾶται, καὶ τῷ μώλωπι αὐτοῦ πάντες ἡμεῖς ἰάθημεν.
