The Nations vs Jesus (Luke 22:63-23:25)

from Christ Church Balham Talks · host Andy Palmer

As we consider the ‘Problem of Evil’, this passage may not give a complete answer, but it does give us the beginning of an answer. NOTES: Trial 1: Jewish Council - prejudiced but powerless (vv63-71) Trial 2: Pilate - savvy but spineless (vv1-7) Trial 3: Herod - curious but callous (vv8-12) Trial 4: Crowd - cruel and capricious (vv13-25) What does this passage reveal about... ...us? ...Jesus? ...God's plan?
