CAN THE DEATH OF A TZADDIK BRING ATONEMENT?

CAN THE DEATH OF A TZADDIK BRING ATONEMENT?

Shalom,

Can the death of a tzaddik (righteous person) bring atonement? Can the death of Yeshua MiNatzeret bring atonement?

What does chazal (Sages) say?

INDONESIAN:
Dapatkah kematian seorang tzaddik memberikan pendamaian dengan HaShem? Dapatkah kematian Yeshua dari Natzeret, seorang tzaddik, membawa pendamaian dengan HaShem?

Apa kata chazal (Sages) tentang hal ini?

Talmud Bavli, Mo'ed Katan 28a
"Said R' Ammi, 'Wherefore is the account of Miriam's death
placed next to the [laws of the] red heifer? To inform you that even as the red heifer afforded atonement [by the ritual use of its ashes],
so does the death of tie righteous afford atonement [for the living they have left behind].'

R' Eleazar said, 'Wherefore is [the account of] Aharon's death closely followed by [the account of the disposal of] the priestly vestments? [To inform you] that just as the priest's vestments were
[means] to effect atonement, so is the death of the righteous [conducive to procuring] atonement.'"
