In God’s Plan, He provided His Son to be judged and to provide the Perfect Sacrifice for the penalty of sin.

Jesus Christ was only the 2nd person in all human history who had remained sinless up until His death. All others are born dead spiritually to God the Father from the consequences of Original Sin in mankind from the Garden.

The penalty of sin was death, which is a state of existence involving separation. In this case, a separation from God the Father, was the most violent death imaginable.

This is manifest by our Lord on the Cross, when He exclaimed, (Matt 24:36)`ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?’ (prophecied in Psalms 22:1 ELI ELI LAMA AZABTANI)(My God, My God (God the Father singular male), why have You(God the Father male singular) forsaken Me ?(first masculine singular suffix refers to God the Son uniquely)

The opposite of love is not hate, rather it is fear. God the Son loved God the Father and feared the consequences of sin imputed to Him and being judged on the Cross.

Since God the Father is Perfectly Holy, comprised of Perfect Righteousness and Perfect Justice, anytime He is exposed to sin, His Perfect Righteousness demands He Judge the Sin in Perfect Justice.

In His humanity, the soul of our Lord Christ Jesus was Judged on the Cross for the imputed sins of all humanity.

2Co 5:21
(21) For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
