In verse 11 of this chapter, we are called to turn away from evil and do good, and we are assured that the eyes of the Lord are upon those who are righteous. But how is this supposed to be a comfort to us when not one of us can dare to claim any righteousness of our own?
Verse 18 brings us hope because it reminds us that Christ suffered for our sins. Unlike us, He was just and perfectly righteous and never sinned. We are Law-breakers, but He is the great Law-Keeper. He suffered for us who are unjust, so that He might bring us near to God.
The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus are the onlu reason that we can have hope and comfort in this life!
