Throughout the pages of the Bible, we read that Jesus committed no sin; that no deceit was found in His mouth; that He did do no violence; that He came into sinful flesh, becoming sin for us; and that He was numbered with the transgressors for our sakes. It is clear that He did not transgress God’s law — He never sinned even once. But what about man’s law? Was He properly sentenced to death according to the Jewish and Roman law that was in effect at His time?
Some have erroneously concluded that He was, neither knowing the law of man nor the Scriptures. Others have rightly pointed out that Jesus’ execution was nothing more than premeditated murder. The Bible, as well as the relevant provisions of the applicable human law, make this fact very obvious.
