The Tree Of Love April 4, 2015
[Jesus] bore our sins in His own body on the tree.
1 Peter 2:24
The corkscrew willow tree stood vigil over our backyard for more than 20 years. It shaded all four of our children as they played in the yard, and it provided shelter for the neighborhood squirrels. But when springtime came and the tree didnt awaken from its winter slumber, it was time to bring it down.
Every day for a week I worked on that treefirst to fell it and then to chop two decades of growth into manageable pieces. It gave me a lot of time to think about trees.
I thought about the first treethe one on which hung the forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve just couldnt resist (Gen. 3:6). God used that tree to test their loyalty and trust. Then theres the tree in Psalm 1 that reminds us of the fruitfulness of godly living. And in Proverbs 3:18, wisdom is personified as a tree of life.
But it is a transplanted tree that is most importantthe crude cross of Calvary that was hewn from a sturdy tree. There our Savior hung between heaven and earth to bear every sin of every generation on His shoulders. It stands above all trees as a symbol of love, sacrifice, and salvation.
At Calvary, Gods only Son suffered a horrible death on a cross. Thats the tree of life for us.
Father, on this day between Good Friday and Easter Sunday, were grateful for the cross and for Your Son who gave His life so that we might have life. Thank You.
The cross of Christ reveals mans sin at its worst and Gods love at its best.
: The garrison of Roman troops mentioned in verse 27 is a detail that adds to our understanding of the events surrounding Christs death. Marks account of the same event translates the word as cohort (15:16 NASB). Garrison or cohort was a Roman military term that described a company of soldiers consisting of at least 200 and perhaps as many as 600 men. The same Greek word is used in John 18:3 when a detachment of troops comes to arrest Jesus in the garden. Imagine, possibly hundreds of men were sent to arrest Jesus and hundreds gathered around Him when He was tormented.
