... holy city, and the house of the Lord. For thenceforth God’s grace desisted (from working) among them. And “the clouds were commanded not to rain a shower upon the vineyard of Sorek,” —the clouds being celestial benefits, which were commanded not to be forthcoming to the house of Israel; for it “had borne thorns ”—whereof that house of Israel had wrought a crown for Christ—and not “ righteousness, but a clamour,”—the clamour whereby it had extorted His surrender to the cross.[Luke 23:13-25] And thus, the former gifts of grace being withdrawn, “the law and the prophets were until John,” and the fishpool of Bethsaida until the advent of Christ: thereafter it ceased curatively to remove from Israel infirmities of health; since, as the ...

[10, 11] And Pilate called the chief priests and the rulers of the people, and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as the perverter of your people: and I have tried him before you, and have not found in this man any cause of all that ye [12] seek against him:[Luke 23:15] nor yet Herod: for I sent him unto him; and he hath done [13] nothing for which he should deserve death. So now I will chastise him, and let [14, 15] him go. The multitude all cried out and said, Take him from us, take him. And [16] the chief priests and the elders accused him of many things. And during their [17] accusation he answered not a word. Then Pilate ...

But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him and let him go. And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that He might be crucified; and the voices of them prevailed.”[Luke 23:15-23] The repeated effort which Pilate, in his desire to accomplish the release of Jesus, thus made to gain the people’s consent, is satisfactorily attested by Matthew, although in a very few words, when he says, “But when Pilate saw that he could prevail ...
