SCRIPTURE

"who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:" — 1 Peter 2:22 (ASV)

Who did no sin (ος αμαρτιαν ουκ εποιησεν). Quotation from Isa 53:9. He has already expressed the sinlessness of Christ in 1:19. The next clause is a combination of Isa 53:9; Zephaniah 3:13. For "guile" (δολος) see verse 1.

Was found (ευρεθη). First aorist passive indicative of ευρισκω. Christ's guilelessness stood the test of scrutiny (Vincent), as Peter knew (Matthew 26:60; John 18:38; 19:4,6).
