Matt 27:45 . . At noon, darkness fell across the whole land until three o'clock.

To me, those three hours were the most important during Christ's ordeal because that's when God laid into him.

Isa 53:6 . . All of us like sheep have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; but The Lord has caused the iniquity of us all to fall on Him.

Isa 53:10 . . It was Yhvh's will to crush him and cause him to suffer.

When the light returned, people saw Christ in a condition like you will probably never hear described in an Easter Sunday sermon.

The Romans whipped Jesus to within an inch of his life, slapped him around, crowned him with thorns, and drove nails into his palms and his feet. But that was child's play compared to what God did. By the time those hours of darkness lifted; the Lord's own mother would have trouble recognizing him.

Luke 23:48 . .When all the people who had gathered to witness this sight saw what took place, they beat their breasts and went away.

Yes, of course they beat their breasts; you know why? Because they were having trouble catching their breath. The extent of the Christ's injuries were so horrific that they could scarcely tell he was the same man.

Isa 52:14-15 . . There were many who were appalled at him-- his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any man and his form marred beyond human likeness --thus will he sprinkle many nations

The below is an impassioned plea heard from the cross.

Matt 27:46 . . My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Here it is again; this time with some parts that were missing.

Ps 22:1 . . My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

The Hebrew word for "roaring" is sheagah (sheh-aw-gaw') which means: a rumbling or moan.

In other words: people standing around the cross that day during those three hours of inky dark couldn't see anything, but they could sure hear: and what they heard were the dreadful screams of a man in extreme discomfort.

You need to go back and read Isaiah 53. God did not crush Jesus or place any sin on Him as Jesus knew no sin. This was God's plan of salvation before the foundation of the world that He would give us His only begotten son that would lay down His own life that whosoever believes in Him will have eternal life with the Father.

The only part you did have right was that Jesus was unrecognizable from the beatings He took for as He was was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. The chastisement He took for us out of a great love for all should have been our own, but through the free gift of God's grace we are saved by faith that is Christ Jesus and His fulfillment on the cross.

I'm not sure where you are learning this stuff from, but I would suggest reading that which has already been written.

If God would do that to His own son, would He do any less to mockers?

Heb 10:29-30 . .Think how much more terrible the punishment will be for those who have trampled on the Son of God and have treated the blood of the covenant as if it were common and unholy. Such people have insulted and enraged the Holy Spirit who brings God's mercy to His people. For we know the one who said: I will take vengeance. I will repay those who deserve it. . . . It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

God didn't do anything to His Son Jesus other than giving us the greatest gift of Love. It was our iniquity that caused Jesus to be beaten, nailed to the cross as He suffered and died so whosoever will believe in Him can have eternal life with the Father through the sacrifice Jesus made for His great love for all of us.
