NASB | John 19:11 Jesus answered, "You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above; for this reason he who delivered Me to you has the greater sin." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 19:11 Jesus answered, "You would have no authority over Me at all if it had not been given to you from above. For this reason the sin and guilt of the one who handed Me over to you is greater [than your own]." |
Bible Question: What is meant by the greater sin? |
Bible Answer: (Luke 12:48) But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. In the above verse, you can see that 'to whom much is given is much required!' Sin can be either Single or Plural. "All unrighteousness is Sin, [1John 5:17]. (James 4:17) Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. The Pharassees, the Religious RULLERS, knew the Word, but rejected it, because they said: (John 11:48-52) If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on Him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.(John 11:49) And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all, (John 11:50) Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. (John 11:51) And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; (John 11:52) And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. They were religious, but had no interest in the Redemption offered by Jesus! They had the "GREATER SIN" because they 'knew better and still did Wrong!' Thank you! |
