Abstract
Many Christians profess that Jesus died as a sacrifice for sins. The Catholic Mass is even understood as a “sacrifice.” Some take issue with this language, for it seems to put forward an idea of God that is implicated in vengeance and violence. Why would God accept the murder of an innocent man as a sacrifice for sin? As important as this question is, there is a more fundamental question: What does it mean to say that Jesus dies as a sacrifice for sin?
