  • Mark 15:21-47 "The Covenant Ratified"
    2024/11/22

    In keeping with the theme of covenant, we are going to see today what I’m calling the covenant ratified through the death and burial of Jesus. In his book, The Roman Empire Colin Wells states, “The Romans had a highly developed and theatrical sense of the public ceremonial.” They loved the triumphal parade. You could say, “Everyone loves a parade.” What is happening here with Jesus is a mock triumph. Instead of a parade with the victorious king or general leading the line, the soldiers are marching Jesus to His crucifixion. There were 2 purposes for such a horrible execution. First, as we’ve already seen, the crucifixion meant to prolong the pain, and force the victim to linger on the cross possibly for days until they slowly died from asphyxiation brought on by muscle fatigue. Second, the public exposure served as a warning and a deterrent. The victim would be marched through the streets with a placard announcing the crime, and the cross would be placed near a well-traveled road, so that a passers-by would see.

    According to the historian Josephus, when Jerusalem was besieged, anyone caught outside the wall attempting to forage for food were crucified next to the wall of the city. The Roman general Titus, “hoped that the spectacle might perhaps induce the Jews to surrender, for fear that continued resistance might involve them in a similar fate. The soldiers out of rage and hatred amused themselves by nailing their prisoners in different postures; and so great was their number, that space could not be found for the crosses nor crosses for the bodies.”

  • Mark 15:1-20 "The Covenant Acknowledged Part 3"
    2024/11/11

    We are continuing on with the theme of the acknowledged covenant as the arrest and trial of Jesus comes to an end. Lord willing, next week up to the first week of Advent, we will see the covenant ratified through Christ’s death and burial, and we will see it vindicated in His resurrection. That will get us through Mark 16:1-8, and we will finish with Christ’s victory as we consider verses 9-20. We have seen the acknowledgment of Jesus by the counsel of Jews, and now we are going to see the acknowledgment by Pilate. Based on their trumped-up charges, they now seek Rome’s involvement.

  • Mark 14:60-72 "The Covenant Acknowledged Part 2"
    2024/11/04

    Last week I gave us part 1 of what I’m calling “The Covenant Acknowledged.” What I mean by this is that the enemies of Christ have gathered around Him now to basically ask Him how He pleads to the charges they are bringing against Him, and in so doing they are in a way, acknowledging His teachings, miracles, and all other activities.

    One of the things which I have emphasized is that Christians are covenant people. The Church is a covenant body. When we become Christians, we enter into this sacred covenant with God through Christ. When we become confessional members of a church, we are saying that we believe in what this church stands for, and we enter into covenant with each other. Covenant is what we actively do, and it is actively who we are. So, please keep this in mind as we continue to examine what our Lord goes through here.
