Vicarious: Taking the place of another
person; endured, suffered, by one person in place of another.
(New World Dictionary)
Christ suffered, God's sinless Son,
taking our place in judgment. Though the word is not in the Bible,
the idea is.
The Vicarious Suffering Of
Christ:
Isaiah 53:4-6;12 KJV
4 Surely He hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of
God, and afflicted.
5 But He was wounded for our
transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement
of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.
6 All we like sheep have gone
astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and The Lord hath
laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
12 Therefore will I divide Him a
portion with the great, and He shall divide the spoil with the
strong; because He hath poured out His soul unto death: and He was
numbered with the transgressors; and He bare the sin of many, and
made intercession for the transgressors.
