Jules,

A sacrifice is offered, the buffetings of Satan are something you are subjected to. Smile

What I'm seeing, is this:

"for I will justify him;" - The Savior will "declare innocent or guiltless; absolve; or acquit..." . So He will declare Joseph clean...

"for he shall do" - FOR, or "seeing that; since; or because...". So He is saying BECAUSE he will do this....

"he shall do the sacrifice" - he SHALL DO, or he doesn't have a choice in the matter....

"the sacrifice which I require at his hands" - The Savior is REQUIRING a sacrifice, (to make a sacrifice or offering of, to surrender or give up, or permit injury or disadvantage to, for the sake of something else, to dispose of goods, property, etc. regardless of profit), from Joseph...

"for his transgressions" - FOR or BECAUSE OF his transgressions.

Then this:

Quote:
and shall be delivered unto the buffetings of Satan unto the day of redemption


...is talking about the same thing - someone having received their C&E will be required to sacrifice because of their transgressions, in order to be justified.
