Behold the Man John 19:1-16

Jesus was despised and rejected by His own people just as Isaiah had prophesied: Isaiah 53:3 (ESV) He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Jesus is on trial before Pilate and they are given multiple opportunities to repent.  Pilate declares Jesus innocent three times.  However, their hearts are hard and full of hate.  They have no compassion but just want Jesus to die.
