The verses around 1 Peter 2:24.
22Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
Verse explanation
The phrase “by whose stripes ye were healed” echoes a passage from Isaiah 53 about a suffering servant, an Old Testament text the early Christians associated with Jesus’ death — here applied directly to describe the spiritual healing brought by the cross.
From the 1 Peter 2 study in Bible in Stories.
