CORRECTING TRANSLATIONS: By SpiritualDictionary.com
Jesus died for our sins. Jesus showed us the right way to live (which was what he preached) and he was crucified because of his beliefs, therefore he “died” (Crucified) for OUR sins (We did not support him)
Forgive them for they know not what they do…………means they do not understand the correct way to live, and because they truly BELIEVE what they are doing is right then they can be forgiven.
