THE MEANING OF 'HILASTERION' FROM "PIERCED FOR OUR TRANSGRESSIONS"
"As we have seen, God's wrath at human sin is prominent in Romans generally, central in the section that immediately precedes Romans 3:21-26, and absent from God's justified people in the section that immediately follows. It is by setting forth his Son as 'a sacrifice of atonement' that God has turned his wrath aside, leaving his people justified before him. That hilasterion here means 'propitiation' could hardly be clearer."
