Luke 24:25-26
Out of all the suffering written in the Bible, Jesus's suffering was the worst. Why is that? Because He was sinless and didn’t deserve it. The people were mad that Jesus was not following THEIR rules. God had given the 10 Commandments, but the Pharisees added over 600 more things.
In the Bible Recap part we are currently reading, I have noticed that Jesus heals a lot on the Sabbath. Keeping the Sabbath holy & resting is one of the 10, but they had put limits like you could only walk a mile. I don’t see how they justify Him speaking healing as “work” but they do. It’s a way for them to trap Him.
Jesus was SEVERELY beaten before He ever went to the cross. He was barely recognizable. It was so brutal! I can’t imagine the pain He endured. He did it all for us! Yes, you and me! I’m so grateful for that though, aren’t you?
