Paul said,
For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. Gal.3:10, Deut.27:26
We all know that our Savior never violated the law in any way, so he could not be cursed by the law, but then Paul says,
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree Gal.3:13, Deut.21:23
Does God truly curse an innocent man by a method of execution? Paul was citing a passage that qualifies being cursed by the law which says,
And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: Deut.21:22
So it isn't being hanged on a tree, but committing sin that brings the curse on an individual. What Paul is teaching here, is that Jesus was falsely accused, wronfully thought of as accursed of God by the people who condemned him and others passing by the cross.
