How do we know Jesus was made sin for us?

Answered in 2 sources

We know Jesus was made sin for us from 2 Corinthians 5:21, which states that God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us.

The doctrine that Jesus was made sin is rooted in 2 Corinthians 5:21, where it declares that God the Father made Christ, who knew no sin, to be sin for us so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. This profound exchange signifies the gravity of what Christ endured — He took upon Himself the complete burden of sin, experiencing its full shame and guilt, despite having never sinned Himself. This substitution is central to the gospel and showcases God's love and justice, enabling sinful humans to be reconciled to a holy God.
