The verse in its chapter

1 Peter 2:22-25

  1. 22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
  2. 23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
  3. 24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
  4. 25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.

2:24 He personally carried our sins: This phrase alludes to Isa 53:4, 11-12. • By his wounds you are healed: The physical suffering of Christ has freed us from slavery to sin (cp. Isa 53:5). Matthew applies similar language from Isa 53:4 to the physical healings performed by Jesus (Matt 8:17).
