What does the Bible say about the condemnation of Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes Jesus' condemnation as unjust, affirming that He was innocent and fulfilled the prophecies of silent suffering.

The Bible portrays the trial and condemnation of Jesus as deeply unjust, highlighting His innocence and the fulfillment of prophecy regarding His silent suffering. In Isaiah 53:9, it states that He had done no violence, and in Isaiah 53:7, it illustrates how He opened not His mouth during His trial. Despite Pilate's initial recognition of Jesus' righteousness, he ultimately succumbed to the pressure of the crowd and condemned Him. This condemnation, rooted in envy and fear, reveals the depravity of human nature and the often perilous consequences of valuing the approval of man over divine justice.
