A CROWN, BUT OF THORNS, 27-aL ' IerreoeucTIoN -- After his arrest, Jesus was brought before the supreme reljgious coi urt of the Jewsh people, , This court, the Sanhedrin, composed Of remsentatives of the priests, the seribee, and the eiders of the people,gave Jesus a hurried trial. Camphas,' who presided, after the preliminary citation of witnesses, whose evidence was apparently coetradictory, put to ' Jesus the point-blank question: "Art) thou the Christ, the Son of the Bless - d?" Jesus, who up to this moment' had preserved absolute silence, ans- wered "I am; and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of:, heaven," Mark 14: 61-62. This was ' adjudged blasphemy by a court which; did not accept his religious. authority, I and Jesus was sentenced to death. I But the Sanhedrin, while entrusted: with jurisdiction in the sphere of the Jewish religion, did not possess the i power of life and death. It might hue•) se a sentence of death, but only the i Boman authoisity could give the nec- essary confirmation, Since A.D. 6, Judea had been under. a Roman pro - 'curator, holding officelrom Rome, and capital sentence of the Jewish court ;tad to be referred to this officer for eanction. Consequently, Jesus is new led by the Jews before the tribunal of Pilate, who had been procurator since A.D. 26, and Pilate is obliged to go into the case before giving his verdict. To understand the trial of Jesus by Pilate, it is necessary to observe that the Jews,' in order to get the dbath- sentence confirmed by Pilate, put 'a political complexion upon the charge against Jesus. They know that Pilate would not concern himself with mat- ters of a purely religious or spiritual kind. Therefore, they misrepresented the Mossialiship of Jesus as a claim of political kingship, and said that Jesus was a menace to the Roman power. Here lies the deepest and 'blackest guilt of the Jewish accusers. They put a false eonstruction on the religious claims of Jesus. Jesus knew himself to be called by God to the highest religious office in the nation, namely, to the supreme task of bring- ing the nation at last to God. It has been made plain to him in spiritual experience that he was the "anointed" or Christ of God for this redemptive task. But all through his ministry he had refused to allow this office to be confused with any political el: woilsily dreams. In the wilderness, and afterwards in Gahiee, he had de- clined the crown of earthly kingship. But, Jewish hatred for its . own pur- poses now invests. him -with the very attributes he had disclaimed, and ar- raigns the sinless one as a politically dangerous person. I. ART THOU THE ICING? 11-14. V. 11. The question which Pilate asks Jesus has been put into his mouth by the Jewish accusers. He had been "instructed" by Jewish lawyers,' and conceives his duty to be confined , to probing the truth of the particular , charge that Jesus claimed to be the king of the Jews. Jesus answers, simply: "Thou sayest." This means' that he is indeed the king of the Jews,' but that he will not explain. Pilate must himself accept the responsibility i for any conclusions which • he rna,y1 come to. No! Jesus cannot discuss his claims with a heathen magistrate. I Pilate cannot, the Jews will not under- stand. As the Gospel according to John explains, Pilate and the Jews have before thern the sufficient evi-, demo of jests' holy life and his p.urel spiritual teaching. Jesus' has lived. He will not defend hfinself by argu- ment. • Vs. 12-14. The majest3r of Jesus' reserve, continued even when the Jew- ish authorities break in again with the accusation, astonishes Pilate, and sets him thinking. Conscience, a cer- tain perception of the real of the • case, is not dead in Pilate. He sus- pects that the Jews are acting from erealicious motives. But,. besides con- scieriee, ether forces are at work to save him from an unjust consent to. Jesus' death.' It JESUS OR BARAM3AS? 15-26. . Vs, 15-18. At the Passover, it seems to have been the custom of the procur- ator to release some Jewish prisoner of note as an act of grace to the Jews. Very possiblyPilateehineself had insti- tuted this ,custom as a means of keep- ing favor with the people. If so, he had here an tipportunity of declaring Jefeis absolved. The door seemed pro- videntially opened for ,the re.eaee of Jesus. Thus, not only conscience, but the fortunate eircurnstanceeof this cus- tom was on Pilateei side, had he chosen to. de the right. . V. 10, Not only so, bat Nate had been specially advlsed •by his wie, as the, reealt of a 'dream, to eake z ae- tion against. :kens a Nazareth. God often makes hie wtL., knOW11 tG threugh those who love us, and wish, to shieid us from harm. Vs. 20-23. In spite a nu, hewever, as the multitude, inatructed. by the prieste and eiders, clamor for Barab- bas•inetead of Jesus, and demand that Jesus be erucified Pilate even though knowing that Jesus was guiltless, weekly eoneents. Appoieted to ad- minister justice, he prefers pepular- , ity, and infamouslydisgraces his name. Vs. 24-26. Pilate may ostentatious- ly wash his hands, and declare he is innocent, but he is really guiltrof the blackest of sins. Thie remains, even though the Jewish people encourage him, and say that they take all the responsibility for Jeaas' 'death. III. A CROWN, BUT OF THORNS, 27-31. Vs. 27-31. This closing scene, though due to the malice '4nd cruelty of the Roman soldiers, 'Serves to show Jesus to us in the real nature of his kingehip. His sovereignty, his maj- esty is the sovereignty, the majesty of sacrifice, of suffering. The Roman soldiers dislike the Jews, and it is their hatred of the Jew . that conies out in this mockery of the sinless Son of God. They do r,ot know, as they hand hini the crown' and sceptre of their mockery, that they are shoWing Jesus to the world in that character in which he will rule and govern .ite Yet it is even so. Jesus saves us by his sacrifice, by wearing for us the crown of thorns. PILATE'S POLICE. . About this time, the Roman military forces were organized in 30 legions of about 6,000 men each. Every legeon was made up of 10 cohorts, and every cohort (of about 600 men)! ewes vided into 6 centuries (that is, groups of 100 men). The army of occupation in Palestine consisted of half a legion of five cohorts, that is, about 3,000 soldiers. Some were kept at Cmsarea, the usual residence of the procurator or Roman governor, but most were scattered through the country towns. For example, there was a company at Capernaum. A considerable force was kept at Jerusalem all the time; but at the Passover season, when large crowds gathered in the holy city and the religious temper became pe- culiarly inflammable, the Jerusalem. garrison and police were reinforced. The chief officers of the legion wene tribunes and eentueions. Of tribunes, there were six in every legion, and they were associated in command of the legion, though sometimes, in addi- tion, h tribune is found in separate command of a cohort. Each century was under the command of -a cen- turion. The "hancl".of verse 27 was a "cohort," but could hardly be a whole cohort. • • How to Kill Ox Warbles. The grubs so commonly found in "boils" on the backs of cattle during winter and spring are the larv cef the ex warble -fly developed from eggs de- posited by the fly when cattle are grazing. They are the source of much misery to their hosts, and may reduce milk...yield or prevent normal growth and development, besides causing 'tre- mendous economic less by the damage they *do to the hides for leather. In time this menace and mischief might greatly be lessened, or possibly elimin- ated, were every owner of cattle in - It -variably to protect his animals from flies by free and frequent spraying with a reliable repellent, and by 1 squeezing out and destroying every grub he can find. The extra.ction of a. Igrub from a mature boil may readily be accomplished by pressing down , hard on it .with the open mouth of a I I large bottle. .4: mixture of one part • of iodoform and five .parts of lard should then be applied to the boil, j and to immature ones, to induce heal - ling or destroy forming grubs.
