Why did Jesus? penalty for sin need to include physical and emotional pain - why not just spiritual separation from God?
I think Jesus needed the physical and emotional pain so we as humans could see for real that Jesus died for our sins. Humans would doubt if they don`t see. Like St. Thomas. Jesus physical death was the fullment of all the prophecy.
