The Gospel of Mark - Pt. 29: Hail, King of the Jews
In Mark 15, Jesus stands trial before Pilate, silently enduring false accusations and injustice as the true “King of the Jews.” While Pilate recognizes His innocence, he yields to the pressure of the crowd, releasing Barabbas, a guilty man, in place of the sinless Savior. Jesus is mocked, beaten, and crucified, fulfilling Psalm 22 with remarkable precision as He suffers rejection, scorn, and physical torment. His death is accompanied by divine signs, the tearing of the temple curtain and the confession of a Roman centurion who declares Jesus to be the Son of God. Amid widespread fear and betrayal, a few faithful followers, including Joseph of Arimathea and the women who had ministered to Jesus, demonstrate courage and devotion by caring for His body. This passage exposes the contrasting human responses to Jesus, fear, unbelief, and faith and invites reflection on how we respond to the crucified King.
