What does the Bible say about Jesus being condemned without a cause?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible indicates that Jesus was falsely accused and condemned, specifically in Matthew 26:59-66.
In Matthew 26:59-66, we see that the chief priests and elders sought false witnesses against Jesus to put Him to death but could not find any credible evidence to support their accusations. This event highlights the profound injustice that was perpetrated against Christ, fulfilling the prophetic words of David in Psalm 109, where he speaks of being wrongfully attacked by enemies without a cause. The silence of Jesus in the face of these accusations underscores His willingness to embrace suffering for the sake of our salvation, showing that His condemnation was the result of sinful humanity's rebellion rather than any fault of His own.
