I’m live nationwide with my annual Good Friday Show. Click the button below to listen. Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked. 7 And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas.
Great message. He paid a debt He didn't owe, because we owed a debt we couldn't pay. Erick, can you recommend a local medical reporter for a story I have (2 siblings, age 5 & 7 with MLD - Metachromatic Leukodystrophy) in Suwanee, GA (Forsyth Co)?
Thank you for the show today. I appreciate it every year. Anything preventing you from sharing the books and people you talked with today as a reference and every year going forward?
I find this situation with Pilot quite interesting. While many appreciate the significance spiritually of the Bible I am very much interested in the historical aspect.
Here you have Pilate who is put in a predicament that he doesn’t fully understand as he wasn’t a Jew.
The key line “why what evil has he done?”
Is very telling.
A man in complete authority faced with crucifying someone who was by his own admission innocent and who’s own people wanted him dead.
Yikes. I think in that instance I might have just said “you want to kill him you deal with it.” but it was predicted to happen that way and it did and Pilate given his history was all too happy to execute a Jewish citizen as he had been known to persecute the Jews on several occasions.
Pilote was an interesting figure in history. He was known to be ruthless and unjust. He was also an antisemite who routinely insulted and persecuted the Jewish people. The fact that the leaders of the Jewish temple went to him to kill their prophet just further highlights the ridiculous nature of it.
But maybe it’s poetic justice as Pilate would later face his own trial and ordered to kill himself in disgrace due to his actions in Samaria. As ruthless as the Roman’s were even they had rules and limits.
In fact Pilate was the perfect match for the situation to fulfill the prophecy. Any other Roman leader would have followed the rules and put him to a proper trial and judicial process. But Mr Pilate had been known at that time to routinely try people without process and put his political rivals to death for simple transgressions.

Something that ultimately got him killed.
