spacerspacerLuke 23-24

spacerQuestions for Discussion

  1. Why does Pilate only inquire whether Jesus claims to be "King of the Jews"? Why does Jesus not answer Pilate's question "Are you the King of the Jews?" directly?
  2. What does it mean that the "chief priests and the rulers and the people" demanded Jesus' death in opposition to Pilate's judgment?
  3. Why do the people ask for the release of Barabbas rather than Jesus?
  4. Why, after Jesus departs from his disciples after traveling to Bethany, are the disciples filled with joy?
