THE PRINCE OF LIFE CRUCIFIED
Matthew 27:33-60 Deoember 11
"He vat icoundr for Mr trantffn Hon, he
ton bruited for our iniquities. - 2,0. s.1.
r,HE trial of Jesus really took
place shortly after his arrest
but on account of the Law re- I
quiring a death sentence to be passed
in daylight a morning meeting of the
" uyviuicu, waica, in a
perfunctory manner, confirmed the
high priest's decision of the night be
fore, that Jesus had blasphemed the
Creator when he claimed that be bad
come Into the world in accord with the
Creator's long-promised plan that he
anouia redeem Israel and the world
from the death sentence, that in God's
due time he might establish the Mes
sianic Kingdom for the blessing of Is
rael and all the families of the earth.
The matter was rushed through lest
the gathered multitudes, who had
shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of Da
vid." when Jesus rode upon the ass
five days before, should undertake
again to proclaim him king. No exe
cution could take place during the
Passover week. And if Jesus were
held a prisoner they knew not what
might happen to him or to them. They
had, therefore, but a few hours in
which to carry out the plan which they
believed would rid their country of a
fate nefustnc fo sentence Je3vs vnustty
gn ortpng Am fc go before Stevd ' Ar tn
man w'iom they considered a deceiver
and one likely to get them Into trou
ble with the Government at Rome.
The Sanhedrin had authority to Judge
the people along the lines of their reli
gion, but was prohibited from execut
ing the death penalty. Hence It was
necessary, after the condemnation of
the Sanhedrin, to take the case before
Pilate, the Roman Governor. Realiz
ing that Pilate would not recognize
blasphemy as a cause for death, the
charge against Jesus, before Pilate,
was a totally different one, namely.
that Jesus was a seditlonist and raiser
of disturbance; that he claimed to be
a king and that his freedom was in
imical to the interests of the Roman
Empire. The foolishness and the hy
pocrisy of such a charge were too
transparent to need assertion. Pilate
perceived that for envy they were de
livering htm because be and his teach
ings were having more Influence with
the common people than could be exer
cised by the chief priests and scribes.
Pilate relieved himself of responsibili
ty by declaring that since the home of
Jesus was in Galilee, King Herod, the
Governor of Galilee, should have the
Jurisdiction of the case, which be waa
glad to get rid of.
Jeeus Before King Herod
This was an unexpected difficulty.
but Herod's palace was not far dis
tant He was glad of the opportunity
to see Jesus, of whose miracles he had
heard much. As he looked at the Mas
ter's noble features and beheld in him
purity and gentle dignity, it must have
seemed ridiculous ghat such a person
should be arraigned as a seaitionisi
and a man dangerous to the interests
of the peace of the country. After a
few taunting words and Jest. tv al
ace guards took a hand with the one
whom their master treated flippantly.
They put upon him a purple robe an1
a crown of thorns and mocked at his
onkingly appearance. Then Herod de
clined to act in the case and sent the
prisoner back to Pilate, perhaps feel
ing that he had had a sufficiency of
trouble? in connection with the behead
ing of John the Baptist a year or so
before. The matter was a Joke be
tween Herod and Pilate dealing with
the case of a man claimed to be so
dangerous that he must die thus, when
he manifestly was so pure and Inno
cent that the weakest would be safe
with him
Pilate's Perplexity Increased
Pilate was disappointed when Jesus
was brought back to his court. The
case was an unpleasant one to settle.
The prisoner manifestly was innocent
of any crime, yet his accusers were
the most prominent men in the nation
and city over which he had charge.
THfcir good will must be preserved, if
possible, and they were evidently bent
on the murder of their Innocent cap
ttre under the form of legality. What
a pity it is that religion has been so
often misrepresented by her votaries
In every age of the world! A lesson
which we all should learn is to search
the motJv58 and intentions of our owi
hearts, that we be not led into the

against God.
Pilate heard the accusation, realised
that there waa no truth In them, and
then gave bis decision : I find no fault
in Jesus, bat, seeing that such a com
motion has been created, I consider it
necessary In the Interests of peace to
satisfy the unrighteous "nils ef
me clamoring multitude. 1 will there
fore have the prisoner whipped, al
though I acknowledge he Is not de
serving of punishment The whip
ping will be in his own interest, as
well as in the interests of the peace
01 tne city, for by satisfying the clam
or of the multitude the life of Jesus
wiu be spared. As political decisions
go, this was a Very fair decree. Magis
trates recognize that absolute Justice
Is not always possible la dealing with
imperfect conditions.
But the rulers would not be satisfied
with anything short of Jesus' death.
The rabble was exhorted to suout.
Crucify him! Crucify bin! It seeiued
Impossible for Pilate to appreciate
that such a frenzy could be arvuaed
against so Innocent a person. 80 he
inquired. What evil hath he done?
But the answer waa. Crucify him:
Alas, how human paaalon can ignore
every principle of righteousness: To
add to Pilate's perplexity, his wife
now sent him word. Have, nothing to
do with this Just person, for I have
had a horrible dream which connects
itself with him
As a last resort Pilate caused Jesus
to be brought to a prominent place
where the multitude could all- see him
and then he cried out to them. "Behold
the Man!" See the character at tin
man you are willing to crucify. Note
that he has most kingly features, such
as none of your race poasess nor oth
ers. Would you crucify the very best
sample of your race? Consider; be
reasonable Behold the Man! It has
for years been a custom with you that
the Government at this season release
a prisoner. So, then, consider that
Jesus has been condemned and that
your conception of Justice has been
satisfied and that now I release him to
you. But the multitude cried out so
much the more. Crucify him! Release
unto us Barabbas (a robber and dan
gerous character).
Thou Art Not Caesar's Friend
The Jewish leaders were shrewd.
They knew that treason to Rome was
one of the most serious offenses and
tn the fact that Jesus had spoken of
himself as a king they had the lever
wherewith to compel his crucifixion.
They used it assuring Pilate that if be
let the prisoner go they would report
him to the Emperor. Pilate knew that
he would have difficulty la explaining
such a case and that the Roman Gov
ernment would agree with the decision
of Oslaphss that one man should die
rather than have any commotion in
their dominion. Thus compelled. Pi
