What does the Bible say about God's pleasure in the death of Christ?

Answered in 1 source

God’s pleasure in the death of Christ is highlighted in Isaiah 53:10, showing that it pleased the Lord to bruise Him for our sins.

Isaiah 53:10 illustrates that it pleased the Lord to bruise His Son, expressing God's delight in the redemptive work accomplished through Christ's suffering. This pleasure stems from God's attributes being honored at the cross, which serves as the ultimate display of His glory. In this context, God's pleasure is not rooted in arbitrary cruelty but in the fulfillment of His divine purpose, which was essential for the salvation of sinners. As such, understanding God's pleasure in Christ's death helps us comprehend the significance of the cross as pivotal for both God's glory and our redemption.
