Q.49. How did Christ humble himself in his death?

A. Christ humbled himself in his death by being betrayed by Judas,[1] forsaken by his disciples,[2] scorned and rejected by the world,[3] condemned by Pilate, and tormented with physical persecution.[4] He struggled with the terrors of death and the powers of darkness; he felt and bore the weight of God’s anger.[5] Finally, enduring the painful, shameful, and cursed death on the cross,[6] he laid down his life as an offering for sin.[7]
