Jesus has been judged worthy of death. Because the Sanhedrin was limited in its power to pronounce the death penalty, they got the Roman Empire involved. The Roman governor would much rather release the King of the Jews. Not only did the Jewish mob choose a notorious criminal instead, but they cried out for the most gruesome punishment available.  

The brutality inflicted on a human through crucifixion was incredibly painful. But Jesus also endured disgusting beatings, slapping, and mockery. He endured it all without protesting. He endured it all with patience. He endured it all.
