Well, it’s sure true that there’s a lot that we don’t absolutely know. There are seeming paradoxes or discrepancies among the four Gospel accounts, and it’s not like every detail even needs to be ironed out. It started out with “Blasphemy, He says He’s God” and ended up with, “He’s fomenting opposition to Caesar.” The false witnesses couldn’t even get their own stories straight, as the Gospel says.
After all, they had no evidence of wrong-doing. It was a kangaroo court and a travesty of justice. Malice and lies.
I am particularly struck by the way Jesus said, “Nobody takies my life from Me. I lay down my life.”
Thank you, Jesus my Savior.
