'Despised And Rejected.'

Chris.
When we see the life span on Earth of Jesus on the Earth we can see His Life recorded from His Infanthood right up to His Ascension. This fact helps me to understand that Jesus understands fully the 'growing pains' of young people and also the persecution of young people who love Him. It also means that He understands when young people feel 'misunderstood.
