excuse unedited cell phone grammar that has errors
why did jesus regard both herod and pilate as powerless?
judging by* jesus' demeanor in the prescence of both herod and pilate, one can infer that jesus didnt regard their authority, even though they had the power to free him
prior to being in the presence of both pilate and herod, jesus disregarded the forewarning of the pharisees in these verses:
Luke 13:31-32 (WBS)
31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to him, Go out, and depart hence; for Herod will kill thee.
32 And he said to them, Go ye and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out demons, and I do cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.
do you think that this teaching prior to the crucifixtion was a predictor of his demeanor toward pilate and herod?
Luke 12:4 (WBS)* And I say to you, my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.
jesus taught that overcoming the world was the premise of our existence . he stated this in this verse:
John 16:33 (WBS)* These things I have spoken to you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye will have tribulation, but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world.
what do you think of jesus' demeanor* in the prescense of both pilate and herod?
i think jesus' demeanor toward pilate and herod illustrated that this world is just s small part of a bigger existence and purpose.
what is your opinion of jesus demeanor?
How Jesus acted wasn't about him or what he had decided, everything he did was to fulfill prophesy.
