Answered in 3 sources

In Luke 22:37 and Isaiah 53:12, Christ is referred to as being numbered with the transgressors, signifying His role as the sinless substitute who bore the sins of many.

The Bible reveals that Christ, though sinless and perfect, was numbered with the transgressors to fulfill God's plan of substitutionary atonement. Luke 22:37 states that this prophecy must come to pass in Him. Isaiah 53:12 further clarifies this, indicating that He bore the sins of many and was placed among those who sinned. This act exemplifies God's profound love and justice, as He provided a way for sinners to be reconciled through the sinless Savior who fully bore their iniquities.
