The Meekness and Patience of his Spirit amidst injuries and provocations, is excellently set forth in 1 Pet. 2.22, 23. Who did no Sin, neither was guile found in his mouth. Who when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not, but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously.
