One sentence socked me in the gut: <i>Under the guidance of the chief priests, the crowd asks for Barabbas...</i><br /><br />Not justice. Barabbas. Indeed, they foil justice; had the decision be left to Pilate and Herod, Jesus would have finished the holiday and continued His ministry.<br /><br />All of this sounds unsettlingly too familiar to our times. But then again, a Jesus Who survived would not be the risen Christ. So, as I flinch at realizing some things never change, I'm also reminded the misdeeds of the chief priests ultimately made the hope for change possible.<br /><br />Thank you for this--and the terrific insights about crucifixion in the previous post. Have a most blessed Easter!<br /><br />TimTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01271248501086241494noreply@blogger.com
