Those two things aren't related. The amount of suffering of the sacrifice isn't as important as the quality of the sacrifice.
Remember, this came during a time when they were sacrificing bulls and goats under the law. Animal sacrifices didn't forgive sins no matter how fat or spotless it was.
The perfect Son of God, sinless in every way, became the sacrifice to do what bulls and goats never could.
Hebrews 10:14 "For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified."
If you study this topic, you would see that the suffering of the sacrifice isn't related to suffering of those who reject the sacrifice of Christ.

Now go back to Genesis 1:1 of the Hebrew, and see what John read.Wrong again. If we are going to have this conversation maybe you need to have some prerequisite knowledge first. See below.
Hebrews 10:5-7
5Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said:
“Sacrifice and offering You did not desire,
but a body You prepared for Me.
6In burnt offerings and sin offerings
You took no delight.
7Then I said, ‘Here I am, it is written about Me in the scroll:
I have come to do Your will, O God.’”

The fact they did not return the money is a misplaced faith, you still had faith.
Many people place their faith in the wrong object/person on a daily basis.
However, when you place your faith in Jesus believing what He stated is true, it will not be misplaced because He is True to His word and promises.

Sure. Jesus wasnt guilty of anything, but was condemned anyway. Being completely innocent, he is the greatest example of unjust suffering.
As far as "eternal" torment, the suffering is in regard to being tormented by having all of pnes sins exposed, which were committed ("forever", meaning the sum of) in this life. In other words, "forever " doesnt always mean never ending (like God is eternal). It can easily mean the entire life of someone, from birth to death, like this,
he shall be his slave forever. Exo.21:6
