The Humility of Christ: Exhibited in His: Exposing Himself to Reproach and Contempt

But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people.

…because zeal for Your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult You have fallen on me.

For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The insults of those who insult You have fallen on Me.”

He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief. Like one from whom men hide their faces, He was despised, and we esteemed Him not.
