Lesson 2395

(Lesson 2395)(07-06-18) Matthew 27:27-31
    “ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers. And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe. And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head. And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.”

   Today’s lesson relates how Jesus was further tortured and humiliated at the hands of the Roman soldiers before He was taken out to be crucified.
    Again, it is important to note that the things that occurred in today’s quote, although emotionally horrible for us and physically horrible for our Savior, were a part of God’s overall plan to redeem those of us who will believe in Jesus.~
