He became "a man of sorrows," that we might be made partakers of everlasting joy. God permitted His beloved Son, full of grace and truth, to come from a world of indescribable glory, to a world marred and blighted by sin, darkened with the shadow of death and the curse.
Pinahintulutan ng Diyos na ang kanyang sinisintang Anak, puspos ng biyaya at katotohanan, buhat sa isang sanlibutang hindi mailarawan ang kaluwalhatian, ay pumarito sa isang sanlibutang dinungisan ng kasalanan, at pinadilim ng kamatayan at ng sumpa.
