ISB ~ 1 John 2 v2

sins of the whole world:The redeeming work of Christ embraces all times, all places, and all peoples (Jn 1:29). Not a single individual has lived or will live for whom Christ did not die (2 Cor 5:15; CCC 605). See note on 1 Tim 2:4.

• One makes satisfaction for an offense when he offers the person offended something of equal or greater value. Christ, by suffering in a spirit of love and obedience, offered to God more than the recompense required for all the offenses of the human race. His Passion was not only sufficient but superabundant satisfaction for the world’s sins (St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae, III, 48, 2).
