Realiz ing that Pilate would not recognize blasphemy as a cause for death, the charge against Jesus, before Pilate, was a totally different one, namely. that Jesus was a seditionist and raiser of disturbance; that he claimed to be a king and that his freedom was in imical to the interests of the Roman Empire.

King Herod. the coverilr of Galilee, should have the iurisieliont of the case, which he was 1d to :ret ild ol. I Je:::s 3eicro King Herod f, This was an unespected .difficulty, t] but Herod's palace was not far dis- fj ant. He was glad of te opportunity to see Jesus, of whose miracles he had heard much. As he looked-at the Mas er's noble features and beheld in him prity and gentle dignity, it must have seemed ridiculous that such a person should be arraigned as a seditionist nd a man dangerous to the interests f the peace of the country. After a few taunting words and jests, the pal ce guards took a hand with the one hom their master treated flippantly. hey put upon him a purple robe and t crown of thorns and mocked at his mnkngly appearance. Then Herod de ~lined to act in the case and sent thp risoner back to Pilate, perhaps fe l ng that he had had a sufficiency of rouble in connection with the behead ng of John the Baptist a year or so efore. The matter was a joke be ween Herod and :Pilate-dealing with :he case of a man claimed to be so langerous that he must die thus, when e manifestly was so pure and inno ent that the weakest would be safe with him. Pj!ate's Perplexity Increased Pilate was disappointed when Jesus , as brought back to his court. The t ~ase was an unpleasant one to settle. he prisoner manifestly was innocent f any crime, yet his accusers were he most prominent men in the nation ad city over which he had charge. I Their good will must be preserved, if possible, and they were evidently bent n the murder of their innocent cap- k te under the form of legality. What I pity it is that religion has been so ften misrepresented by her votaries 1 In every age of the world: A lesson whicb we all should learn is to search he motives and intentions of our own e rts. that we be not led into the error of the wicked-into violating the rights of others and thus fighting against God. Pilate heard the accusations, realized that there was no truth in them, and | then gave his decision: I lind no fault - in Jesus. out, seeing that such a com motion has been created, I consider it necessary in the interests of peace to satisfy the unrighteous demands of the clamoring multitude. I will there fore have the prisoner whipped, al though 1 acknowledge he is not de serving of punishment. The whip ping will d~e in his own interest, as well as in the interests of the peace of the city, for by satisfying the clam or of the multitude the life of Jesus will be spared. As political decisions go, this was a very fair decree. Magis trates recognize that absolute justice is not always possible in dealing with imperfect conditions. But the rulers would not be satisfied wihs anything short of Jesus- qientl. The rabble was exhorted to sIou., Crucify him! Crucify himn: it se~e impossible for late to gyppreciate that such a frenzy could be arousa. against so iunocent a 1,erson. So lie inquired, What evii nath Le done2? But the answer was, Crucify hima Alas, how human passion can ignore every principle of righteousness! To add to Pilate's perplexity, his wife now sent him word, Have nothing to: do with this just person, for I have had" a horrible dream which connects itself witi him.
