Quest. But why was Christs body broken? What was the cause of his suffering?
Answ. Surely not for any desert of his own. Dan. 9. 26. The Messiah shall be cut off, but not for himself. In the Original it is, He shall be cut off, and there is nothing in him*. There is no cause in him, why he should suffer. The high Priest when he went into the Tabernacle, offered first, for himself, Heb. 9. 7. Though he had his Mitre or golden Plate, and did wear holy Garments; yet he was not pure and innocent; he must offer sacrifice for himself, as well as for the people. But Jesus Christ that great High Priest, though he offered a bloody Sacrifice, yet not for himself.
