How Should We Look at the Suffering of Jesus?

"Here in the twelfth chapter of John, Jesus, facing his crucifixion, does not say, 'save me from this hour,' but says rather, 'glorify Your name.' And in that, I think it’s very important that we understand that there is something-although horrible and grisly-there is something glorious about Good Friday."
In his Holy Week message, Bishop Alex encourages us not to turn away from the suffering of Jesus, but to notice what God is stirring within us as we commemorate his intervention into this world.

    The Romans crucified thousands of their opponents in the day.when they ruled the area. Extremely cruel and barbaric form of death by torture. Even so, Jesus did zero to stop such barbaric conduct and worse, set up his own torture chamber many times worse back in heaven..Can anyone see contradictions ?
