You see, the Jews looked at Him with that simplistic point of view and thought: if He is the Son of God, He neither looks the part nor does He act as one.Yes, I agree. The Jews were expecting a warrior Prince who would slay His enemies with a mighty sword. Instead, Christ prayed for His enemies. This bewildered many Jews.
