Day 67 – November 12, 2026 – Luke 23

We have the trial and the resurrection of Jesus. It is so interesting that Pilate says to the people that all of the charges that you have brought before me about this man, not one of them has proved to be true. But I’ll beat him and then let him go, just to make you happy. But that was not good enough for the people, they cried out that he wold crucify Jesus. This is not the type of justice that we expect. The man is innocenent, but a good beating should make the people happy. When it doesn’t make them happy then how about a crucifixion.

We have two instances of the bystanders, in one case women and in another case random bystander, beating their breasts and wailing after Jesus. One as he is carring his cross and one when he dies and they return home. It was a death and a scene that would remember for the rest of history.
