How do we know that Christ's death justified many?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's death justified many because it serves as the foundation for the forgiveness of sins for those He represented, fulfilling God's justice.

In Isaiah 53:11, we read, 'By His knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many, for he shall bear their iniquities.' This illustrates that the basis of justification is directly linked to Christ's redemptive work and His bearing the sins of the elect. His death satisfies divine justice and secures forgiveness for those He represents. As Paul states in Romans 5:9, 'Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God's wrath through him?' This doctrine underscores the assurance that all for whom Christ died will indeed be justified, emphasizing the particular redemption aspect of sovereign grace theology.
