How do we know Jesus endured suffering?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus endured suffering through scripture that details His life, particularly His trials and crucifixion as recorded in the Gospels.

The suffering of Jesus is well-documented throughout the New Testament, particularly in the Gospels, which chronicle his life from birth to crucifixion. From the outset of His life, as recorded in Luke 2:7, He faced rejection, having 'no room' for Him in the inn. This theme of suffering continues as Jesus carries out His ministry, facing constant opposition, mockery, and ultimately brutal execution on the cross. Isaiah 53:3 aptly describes Him as 'a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief,' capturing the essence of His rejection and pain.

Moreover, during His trial and crucifixion, Jesus was mocked and scorned, revealing the extreme hostility directed towards Him by sinners. As He endured the irreversible weight of sin and the shame of the cross, He did so without complaint, embodying the ultimate act of obedience and sacrifice. Thus, His endurance of suffering is not only a historical account but signifies the depth of His love and the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan.
