1 | Did the Romans kill Jesus or did the Jew | NT general | Bob Phelan | 223174 | ||
Thanks Tim for your answer. When looking into it very deeply, I believe you are correct but although Jesus (and all Christians now) know that is what he was doing at the time nobody knew on that first Easter, not even the disciples. That doesn't effect your answer however. Does anyone else have a viewpoint ... hard to beat Tim's I know but what about from another angle. I am not a Jew basher, I recently had an argumwent with our priest over this subject and he will not sway from 'the Romans killed Jesus and that is it'. | ||||||
2 | Did the Romans kill Jesus or did the Jew | NT general | lightedsteps | 223176 | ||
Hi Bob The technical side of your question is answered by saying, because the Jewish nation, was at that time, under the control of Rome, they had to petition the Roman Governor Pilate to execute Jesus, because according to them (the Jewish leaders) He had committed blasphemy, which was punishable by death, they were not allowed by Roman law to execute Him. So even though the Romans carried out the actual execution, it was because the Jews had asked for Him to be executed, not because He had broken any Roman law. Luk 23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man. Mat 27:24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.Mat 27:25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. But it was done in such a manner so that Jew, and Gentile took part in the Crucifixion of Jesus. His death was not for anything He did, it was because of "OUR ISN" for which He was the sacrificed. As Moran has said, we are all responsible for His death. Grace be unto you lightedsteps |
