He will be be delivered by betrayal to the nations, and will be ridiculed, and insulted, and spit upon,
Luke 18:32
Jesus is very specific, and everything He says here would shortly take place. A normal human being in His position would not be able to know exactly what might happen. The mock trial and crucifixion He was about to ensure was more impromptu from man’s perspective. To be sure the Jewish leaders had it in for Him. But they themselves could not have been this specific as to what would actually happen.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the sufficiency of Christ! We are so flawed and proud, but You have made a way for us to be forgiven. And when we think we are worthless You remind us that it was for us that Jesus died. How amazing! We will praise You forever! In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
