The last day up to the crucifixion

  • PER347 The various abuses and the flogging

    PER347 analyzes the scourging and the abuse inflicted on Jesus in the praetorium of Pontius Pilate, on the Friday morning of the Passion. A standardized Roman practice preceding crucifixion, this punishment is accompanied by the soldiers’ mockery (crown of thorns, purple robe). The article compares the accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in a synoptic approach, highlighting Roman institutional violence and the dignity Jesus retained despite the outrages.

    John 18.39-40 (King James Version) :
    But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

  • PER350 The way to Mount Golgotha, help from Simon of Cyrene

    PER350 examines Jesus’ journey to Mount Golgotha, from Pilate’s praetorium. Weakened by the scourging, Jesus can no longer carry his cross alone. Simon of Cyrene is pressed into service by the soldiers. Luke mentions weeping women in the crowd, while Matthew reports Jesus’ refusal of a drink meant to dull the pain. Mark identifies Simon as the father of Alexander and Rufus, figures known to the early Christian communities. A synopsis of Matthew, Mark and Luke sheds light on this episode, which immediately precedes the crucifixion, dated to Friday morning around 9 o’clock.

    Matthew 27.34 (King James Version) :
    They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

Pierre's Ministry

  • ADA024 The Apostles' Surprising Reaction

    Après leur flagellation par le Sanhédrin, les apôtres réagissent de manière surprenante en se réjouissant d'avoir été jugés dignes de souffrir pour le nom de Jésus. Loin d'être découragés, ils poursuivent chaque jour leur ministère dans le Temple et dans les maisons, enseignant et annonçant la bonne nouvelle. Luc montre que les persécutions, loin d'arrêter l'Évangile, contribuent paradoxalement à sa progression.

    Acts 5.41 (King James Version) :
    And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
