What do the prophets say about Christ's suffering?

Answered in 1 source

The prophets foretold of Christ's suffering as essential for our salvation.

The prophets of the Old Testament clearly foretold the suffering of Christ as a crucial part of God’s plan for redemption. Isaiah 53 presents a vivid picture of the suffering servant who would bear the sins of many. This suffering was necessary for our salvation, as it fulfilled God's justice and demonstrated His love. In 1 Peter 1:11, it is mentioned that the Spirit of Christ in the prophets testified beforehand of His sufferings. Thus, Christ's suffering is central to the gospel, showing that our salvation was secured through His pain and agony on the cross.
