What does the Bible say about Christ being hated by the world?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that the world hates Christ because He testifies that its works are evil (John 7:7).

In John 7:7, Jesus says, 'The world cannot hate you, but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.' This verse illustrates the profound contrast between the world's response to Christ and its response to His followers. Jesus identifies Himself as a witness to the evil works of the world, and because He exposes sin, He is met with hatred. This reflects the total depravity of humanity, where people by nature reject the truth of God and love sin instead. The hatred directed toward Christ is emblematic of the broader spiritual opposition that exists against Him and His followers.
