He was Beaten For Me
The men who were holding Jesus started mocking and beating Him. After blindfolding Him, they kept asking. "Prophesy! Who hit You?" And they were saying many other blasphemous things against Him. Luke 22:63-65
When I was driving on the motorway in Brisbane last weekend I was driving along behaving and suddenly a truck with two wild looking characters pulled out from and on- ramp, pull in front of me and slowed down and gave me 'the finger'. Now in the mind of the driver I was something he imagined me to be and he reacted accordingly.
Dogs when they get into a pack behave differently and are more prone to attack.
A group of men who have been led to believe a man in their custody is a deceiver of the masses, treat that man as fair game.
Even in today's times we see brutality get out of hand when minds are filled with imagined wrongs.
Jesus knew the hearts of man and did not trust Himself to them. He knew what was about to happen. Until this time no one could lay a hand on Him, but now His time had come. He had to fulfil the plan to redeems us back to the Father.
We need to know He allowed the abuse for us, He paid the price of our freedom and for that I am truly grateful. Amen!
