Hoko ko e tangata
ke lau Ia ko e tangata
(
So He might identify with us )
Fehu‘i #21
Ko e Huhu‘i fē fē
‘oku fiema‘u ke ne fakafoki kitautolu ki he ‘Otuá ?
( What sort of
Redeemer is needed to bring us back to God?)
Ko ha Tokotaha
‘oku tangata mo‘oni pea toe ‘Otua mo‘oni.
( One who is truly
human and also truly God.)
‘Aisea 9:6
He kuo ‘alo‘i mai ha Tama, Kuo tuku mai ha Foha: Pea
‘e ‘i hono uma ‘a e pule‘anga. Pea ko e huafa ‘e ui‘aki Ko Fakaofo -
‘ene-fale‘i, ko e Helo-‘Otua, Ko e Tamai Ta‘engata, ko e ‘Eiki ‘o e Melino.
ISAIAH 9:6
For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And
His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.
Commentary - BRYAN CHAPELL
Why do
we need a Redeemer who is truly human? One reason is so that
he can identify with us. The Bible says he was "in every respect…tempted
as we are, yet without sin" (Heb. 4:15). He went through
our experience, so he understands what we go through. He is our
High Priest. He understands how we suffer. We understand that
God can identify with us, but even as he identified with us - by having
lived a hard life, by having been humiliated, and by having gone
through humble circumstances - he did it with perfect obedience, not doubting the
love of his Father and not wavering from his Father's path.
