Publisher's Synopsis
Delve into the profound theological inquiry surrounding the cry of dereliction uttered by the Lord Jesus on the cross with this focused project. Instead of addressing broader theological questions, the study centers on the penal aspect of penal substitutionary atonement (PSA), specifically probing the question: Was Jesus punished by God the Father on the cross?
This research staunchly defends a robust interpretation of PSA, asserting that Jesus not only bore the divine punishment deserving of sinners but was actively punished by God the Father in alignment with biblical notions of divine punishment within the context of the crucifixion.
