C.H. Spurgeon emphasizes the profound significance of Jesus being made 'sin for us' through the symbolic act of transferring sin to the burnt offering. He explains that the act of laying hands on the sacrifice represents a deep, burdensome faith that leans heavily on Christ as our Substitute. Each believer is invited to personally engage in this covenant act, recognizing the joy of realizing their sins are laid upon Jesus, who bears them away. Spurgeon reflects on the transformative moment of realizing one's pardon through Christ, leading to a life of gratitude and assurance in salvation. The sermon concludes with a celebration of the eternal solace found in the atoning blood of Jesus.

Thomas Brooks emphasizes the profound depth of God's wrath against sin, illustrated by the extreme suffering inflicted upon His beloved Son, Jesus Christ. He argues that while God has shown His hatred for sin through various judgments throughout history, the ultimate demonstration of this hatred is seen in the crucifixion of Christ, where all the weight of sin's curse was placed upon Him. Brooks compares this act to a father punishing his innocent son, highlighting the unimaginable severity of God's justice and the love behind it. The sermon calls believers to recognize the gravity of sin and the immense sacrifice made for their salvation.
