The Word Became Flesh

The hand extended was our remedy, death being everyone’s curse. Adonai, making expiation, furnishing life eternal, sacrified himself. ————— expiation - removal of sin Adonai - literally, ‘Lord’, one of many names for the Godhead for the Christmas Poetry Contest sponsored by Bobby May written on 12/15/22

Beautiful acrostic, I like to call these types a narrative acrostic b/c they tell a story as well as using the first letters of each word as a line starter. Lovely spiritual piece.
