However, the contexts of Isaiah 53 and 1 Peter 2 make it clear that it is speaking of spiritual healing. “He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed” (1 Peter 2:24).
Ingawa katika mukhtadha wa Isaya 53 na 1 Petero 2 waifanya wazi kuwa inazungumzia juu ya uponyaji wa kiroho. “Yeye mwenyewe alizichukua dhambi zetu katika mwili wake juu ya mti, tukiwa wafu kwa mambo ya dhambi, tuwe hai kwa mambo ya haki; na kwa kupigwa kwake mliponywa” (1 Petero 2:24).
