25 whom God displayed publicly [before the eyes of the world] as a [life-giving]
[b]sacrifice of atonement and reconciliation (propitiation) by His blood [to be received]
through faith.This was to demonstrate His righteousness [which demands punishment for sin],
because in His forbearance [His deliberate restraint] He passed over the sins
previously committed [before Jesus’ crucifixion].
26 It was to demonstrate His righteousness at the present time, so that
He would be just and the One who justifies those who have faith in Jesus [and rely confidently on Him as Savior].
