Hebrews 10:5 (KJV)
Commentary on Hebrews 10:5
Quoting Psalm 40:6-8 (LXX), Christ says to the Father: 'Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You have prepared for Me.' This reveals God's ultimate purpose - not endless animal sacrifices but the incarnation. The body prepared is Christ's human nature, fitted for obedience and sacrifice. Reformed Christology emphasizes the incarnation's necessity - Christ needed genuine humanity to obey as our representative and die as our substitute.
