Matthew 27:11-54 - Lectionary for Passion Sunday

3/21/2021

0 Comments

 
3/21/21
Many churches throughout the world use a Bible reading schedule called a "lectionary." It's just a fancy word meaning "selected readings." Posts like this reflect on the readings for an upcoming Sunday or other Church holiday, as found in the historic one-year lectionary.

In Matthew 27:11-14, Pontius Pilate was amazed at Jesus' actions. We might think that the governor had pretty much seen it all. So what did Jesus do that was so amazing to Pilate? Jesus had been accused before Pilate, and it looks very much as if his accusers were present, throwing more charges at him. Jesus chose not to answer the charges.

To Pilate's question whether Jesus was king of the Jews, Jesus' affirmation was clear. Pilate had said so, and he had said spoken correctly. In this Jesus claimed a higher and more historically-based rank than Pilate could ever claim. It is as if Pilate were a military officer meeting someone else in civilian clothes and asking, "Am I speaking to a superior officer?" only to receive an answer that he is a four star general. 

This put Pilate in a very uncomfortable position, because he, a Roman, was standing between someone who affirmed he was king of the Jews and a crowd of Jews who were making accusations. Pilate's mission, from Caesar, was to keep peace in the province. This didn't look like a good situation.

If Jesus would answer the charges lodged against him, Pilate would have a chance of coming up with a justification for his actions, whether he decided to keep Jesus in custody, release him, or have him executed. But without any response there was very little that Pilate could do. What's more, virtually anybody who is accused will answer the charges in some way. Jesus didn't even do this.

Some of the charges against Jesus were true, at least to a limited extent. Some were false. That's the case with charges people today lodge against Jesus. They may be true, at least partly. For instance, imagine this conversation. "Jesus, you are saying that nobody has eternal life except through you." "Yes, that's correct." "But that means the other ways we want to find eternal life aren't going to work, what will you say about that?" "You are correct, without me, you don't have eternal life." "Doesn't that imply you think you are able to do whatever you want, like you are the boss of everyone?" "That is correct. It is what I am." While some of our modern questioners would walk uway unhappy, grumbling about anyone who is arrogant enough to think he can decide between their life and death, it would leave others, who might well be convinced by the fact that Jesus always seems to tell the truth, ready to redouble their efforts tofollow Jesus.

Jesus had already shown himself to the people who were hurling insults at him. He had no more need to defend himself. He would allow his word to be adequate, then to be demonstrated as authoritative by his ability to die and rise from the dead again. There was no need to answer further.

Jesus has left us with testimony about who he is and what he is able to do. It's plenty of testimony. It's up to us to believe or disbelieve, but he has said what he is saying and given us a demonstration that his word is reliable.

Philippians 2:5-11 - Lectionary for Passion Sunday

Many churches throughout the world use a Bible reading schedule called a "lectionary." It's just a fancy word meaning "selected readings." Posts like this reflect on the readings for an upcoming Sunday or other Church holiday, as found in the historic one-year lectionary.

On Palm Sunday we see Jesus entering Jerusalem as a king. He freely accepts the shouts of praise and the procession, which looks for all the world like a victory parade. Our Epistle reading for this week draws a sharp contrast. Jesus made himself nothing, even humbling himself to die a shameful death. He doesn't look so much like a king them, does he?

Perhaps he does look kingly. The role of a monarch involves the good of the people. The king does not belong to himself. He is not free to do whatever he wants. In fact, to be a good king involves many annoyances, inconveniences, and even mortal peril. The king lays down his life for the good of the kingdom. This is exactly what Jesus does. He cares more for the salvation of the world than he does for his own comfort or honor.

What is the outcome of Jesus' act of humiliation? He is raised from the dead, conquering death, and rescuing all who believe from sin and death. This is the true work of Christ, the king of heaven and earth.

Psalm 118:19-29 - Lectionary for Passion Sunday

Many churches throughout the world use a Bible reading schedule called a "lectionary." It's just a fancy word meaning "selected readings." Posts like this reflect on the readings for an upcoming Sunday or other Church holiday, as found in the historic one-year lectionary.

Psalm 118:23 speaks of "the stone that the builders rejected." This chief cornerstone, rejected by the experts, has always been understood by Christians to be Jesus, the Christ. In this Psalm, then, all our reason for trusting in God, all the calling out to God, all the thanksgiving and rejoicing, is because Jesus, the Christ, is the one who holds the Church, God's kingdom on earth, together.

This is a radical claim. It implies that Jesus is not just a man. While we will confess that his humanity is absolutely real, at the same time, we confess that he is God of all. And herein lies the misunderstanding. Is he God or is he man? The Scripture answers, "Yes." 

When we try to explain the two natures in one indivisible person, we quickly go astray. We can't understand how Jesus can be God and man. We don't understand how the one who has infinite and perfect knowledge of everything can become someone who needs to be taught how to speak, read, and write. We can't grasp the one who is infinite being contained by the fine. We have no clue how the immortal God dies.

These ideas are quicly discarded by our unbelief. We think there must be some mistake. In this way, Jesus is the stone rejected by the builders. There's got to be something wrong. It isn't a trustworthy idea. There's some sort of impossibility going on here.

Christianity, however, deals with impossibility, and makes no apology for it. The infinite is contained in the finite. The timeless enters into time. The one who can be everywhere walks around Palestine. The one who never sleeps or slumbers falls asleep on a cushion in the back of a boat. The eternal is born. The immortal dies. 

In doing all this, a more important impossibility is brought to bear. Your sin and my sin, which we cannot take away even by dying, is taken away by Jesus who dies for us. How can this be? It's a miracle. 

God remains the God of miracles. Our only reasonable response is to give him thanks and praise, to sing his glory, and to ask him to show himself as our savior. This he does by his mercy and his grace.

Zechariah 9:9-12 - Lectionary for Passion Sunday

Many churches throughout the world use a Bible reading schedule called a "lectionary." It's just a fancy word meaning "selected readings." Posts like this reflect on the readings for an upcoming Sunday or other Church holiday, as found in the historic one-year lectionary.

Zechariah 9:12 makes a very interesting statement. "Return to your stronghold, O prismoners of hope; / today I declare that I will restore to you double" (ESV). What is a prisoner of hope?

When we hope for something, by definition, it is something we don't yet have. It may be a very certain thing, but once we have it, we don't hope any more. There's no need to hope, because we have it. Zechariah calls those who are waiting on the Lord prisoners of hope. 

Though God's coming is certain, in a sense, it remains something to be hoped for. In the time of Zechariah, the people were waiting for a Messiah. He had not yet come. He was promised only. There was a promise and a hope, but the rescue from sin was not complete.

The Gospel reading normally used for a Palm Sunday procession quote part of this passage from Zechariah. Jesus entered into Jerusalem as he did to draw attention to the realization of Israel's hope. Those who were held prisoner, dealing with hope of release, would see their release coming to them. He would be mounted on a donkey, coming in peace. The prisoners of hope would know their hope was coming to an end, to be fulfilled, not disappointed.

We who await the coming of Christ in glory are also prisoners of hope. Jesus has accomplished salvation from sin. He has prepared eternal life. He has arranged for us to be raised from the dead just as he was. Yet it is still hope. We still wait for his coming.

Jesus, who always keeps his word, is the one who will come in the last day. He will rescue all who are waiting for him. Our hope will be fulfilled. On that day, we will no longer be imprisoned. We will have the freedom of eternal life, right then. Hope will pass away to be replaced by reality.

Matthew 21:1-9 - Lectionary for Palm Sunday Processional

It's a surprise to see someone apparently out of context. Our lives are surprisingly varied. When my wife was a preschool teacher it was always a surprise to students to see her somewhere other than at school. I recently learned that one of the United States Supreme Court Justices enjoys going on driving vacations with his wife in an RV. I doubt he wears his robe in the campside. We picture the archbishop wearing his uniform, not wearing jeans and a t-shirt buying a bag of apples at the grocery store. 

What is Jesus' context? Most people seemed to recognize him as a rabbi, so we picture him dressed in the garments that a rabbi would wear, walking from place to place, maybe sitting down somewhere and talking with others. The context changes a little in Matthew 21:1-9. At this time, Jesus enters Jerusalem, but not walking with his disciples and possibly a group of people who are trying to listen in. There's a little ceremony. Or perhaps a lot of ceremony. 

Jesus has sent the disciples to borrow a donkey. Apparently the owner knew this was going to happen, or at least Jesus knew the owner would allow it. Maybe he had cleared it in advance or simply had a good reputation with the owner. The donkey was to become his transportation into Jerusalem. 

This was symbolic of a king coming into the city, coming in peace. But Jesus is a rabbi, not a king. Does he suddenly look kingly? We don't hear about his appearance changing, whether by wearing something different or having a supernatural change such as on the mountain of transfiguration. But Jesus is welcomed as a king. 

It seems an impromptu procession. Some people spread garments out. Some cut or broke branches to wave like flags. We don't know how far the procession went. But we do know that Jesus was welcomed into the city as the coming king.

There's a crowd in front of Jesus and a crowd behind him. Again, we don't know how large the crowd is. We do know that they are making a stir. They are proclaiming him to be the Son of David, therefore someone with a claim to the throne of Israel. They are identifying him as the one coming in the name of the Lord.

When Jesus comes, even if he looks like a rabbi, he is, in fact, the Messiah. He is the true king of all. And he has come in peace, to bring peace upon all his people. The events of Holy Week include teaching, preaching, and eventually Jesus' arrest, trial, and death. To bring peace, Jesus is going to die a violent death, be laid in a tomb, and return to life again. He is going to take on death itself and win. The shouts of the crowd, "Hosanna," are prophetic. They are asking that God would save his people. This is precisely what Jesus does. He is showing himself to be the true Son of David, the true King of Israel.

John 12:12-19 - Lectionary for Palm Sunday Processional

We do things for a reason. That shouldn't come as a surprise. It's fun to talk and think of ourselves as being proactive, but when it comes down to it, everything we do is done for a reason, normally based on something we have seen or heard in the past. That, in turn, informs our ideas about future events and motivates our actions.

The people who greeted Jesus upon his entry into Jerusalem had heard about his past action. He had raised Lazarus from the dead. This raised their Messianic hopes. They therefore wanted to understand Jesus as one coming as the Son of David, to restore the kingdom to Israel, and to sit on the throne, having conquered their oppressors.

All in all, this is not a bad interpretation of Jesus' actions to heal, to cast out demons, and even to raise the dead. He seems able to do even the things that David didn't do. And he seems to be a descendant of David, the one who would rightfully sit on the throne.

Had God not spoken in the past? There would be a king to sit on the throne of David and establish an everlasting kingdom. In Jesus, it looked like the restoration of Israel could be on its way.

Jesus' action of riding into Jerusalem on a donkey could speak to this expectation on two levels. First, he enters like a king, heralded by the people. But second, and more important, he enters as someone who comes in peace. Is it a proclamation of peace already accomplished? Perhaps not. It may be a prediction that peace will come about. Maybe he was planning to do something by which he would achieve a peaceful transfer of power from the Romans to himself. That would certainly not be a bad solution, though certainly some of the Jews would prefer the Romans to be slaughtered wholesale.

Jesus is going to exceed the expectations of the people in some ways. He is going to establish his reign of peace. He is going to cast out the evildoers and usher in his kingdom. But he isn't going to do it the way the people anticipate. He is going to take all the sin of the world upon himself. He, in fact, is going to die for the sin of every last person. His kingdom will be inherited by those who believe him as the king. And he is going to show his victory not by conquering the Romans but by conquering death.

The people who saw the resurrection of Lazarus have been furnished with a hint of this. But the reality still escapes them.

Meanwhile, they do what they recognize is at hand. Jesus is coming, as a king, coming in peace, coming for them. We recognize him in the same way, as the one who has come to make peace for us.

    About Throwing Inkwells

    When Martin Luther was dealing with struggles in his life he once saw what appeared to be an angelic being. Not trusting that he was going to be informed by someone other than the God revealed in Scripture, he took the appearance to be untrustworthy and hurled his inkwell at it. The chipped place in the plaster wall is still visible at the Wartburg Castle, though apparently the ink stain on the wall has been refreshed periodically by the caretaker.
