Hebrews teaches that Christ's suffering was necessary for our salvation and served to perfect Him as our Mediator.

The book of Hebrews portrays Christ's suffering as a vital aspect of His ministry. In Hebrews 2:10, it is articulated that it was fitting for Him, as the Captain of our salvation, to be made perfect through sufferings.
