I can think of some people who claimed to be divine (e.g. Akhenaton), I can think of some who were sacrificed for others (the ANZACS), and so on.

But I can’t think of anyone who was all of these things, and that’s what you seem to be suggesting.

Furthermore, I cna’t think of anyone who suffered an ignominious and humiliating death to demonstrate Gods acceptance of the weak over the strong.

That message is unique, AFAIK.
