propitiate: win or regain the favor of (a god, spirit, or person) by doing something that pleases the god, spirit, or person.

forbearance: patient self-control; restraint and tolerance; refraining from exercising a legal right

“God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood–to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished”

“God hath set forth Christ Jesus to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God”

Paul and Paul’s God stopped honoring Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement for sins) once Jesus became a sacrifice of atonement before the destruction of the Temple?

God’s forgiveness on Yom Kippur years 30-69 did not take away punishment because Jesus’ sacrifice was substituted?

God wins over himself by his presenting Jesus as a sacrifice(?) or

God made those in need of winning Him over, those with sins, call for Jesus’ crucifixion(?) or

Caiaphas and those who sought to turn Jesus over to the Romans for crucifixion won over God
by presenting Jesus as a sacrifice?
