What does it mean that Jesus purged our sins?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus purging our sins means that He removed the guilt and penalty of sin for those He represented, achieving complete redemption.

When we speak of Jesus purging our sins, we refer to His sacrificial work on the cross, through which He bore the penalty for sin on behalf of the elect. Hebrews 2:3 indicates that He did this by Himself, emphasizing that it was His sacrifice alone that satisfied God's justice. This doctrine underscores the completeness of our salvation; because He purged our sins, believers stand justified before God without any lingering guilt or condemnation. In Christ, all the sins of those He died for are completely dealt with, enabling them to enter into a relationship with God free from the penalty of sin.
