How does God's wrath relate to Christ's suffering?

Answered in 1 source

God's wrath was poured out on Christ as He bore the sins of His people, fulfilling justice.

The concept of God's wrath is directly connected to Christ's suffering on the cross. Lamentations 1:12 draws attention to the fierce anger of God, which Jesus experienced as He was afflicted for the sins He bore. This was not merely a physical suffering; it served as the judicial response to sin, reflecting God’s justice. Christ's willingness to absorb such wrath demonstrates both His love for rebellious sinners and God's commitment to perfect justice. This understanding assures believers that their sins have been dealt with completely, encouraging them to trust solely in Christ for salvation.
