Title: Pilate's Dilemma (Pt. 1 & 2)
Author: Marvin Patterson
Text: John 19:1-17
An old man was wondering if his wife had a hearing problem. So one night, he stood behind her while she was sitting in her lounge chair. He spoke softly to her, "Honey, can you hear me?"

Finally he moved right behind her and said, "Honey, can you hear me?" She replied, "For the third time, Yes!"

Now Pilate wants to release Jesus to the Jews because of the custom of the Passover to release one prisoner to the people! The Jews would have none of that, and asked instead of Jesus for Barnabus to be released! With that in mind, we will jump in and see what we can learn this morning!

Pilate allowed the soldiers to whip Jesus with a cat of nine tails, which meant that it had nine strands of leather; each strand had a sharp object on the end of it to rip the body to shreds. There would be bone, metal, or glass on the end of each whip. By the time the Roman soldier finished whipping his victim, the prisoner usually was dead with his body ripped to shreds, and His organs honing out! Now Pilate allows this to happen to Jesus, so He is guilty of putting Jesus to death, even though he had tried to wash his hands from the whole situation! The word for "Scourged: means,
mas-tig-o'-o
From G3148; to flog (literally or figuratively): - scourge.
This process must have left Jesus looking horrible, with all the blood, sweat, and ...
