Jesus had just raised Lazarus from the dead. This miracle caused a lot of excitement among the people and the members of the Sanhedrin were worried that the people would believe that Jesus
was indeed the Messiah , and would continue to perform miracles and the people would believe.They were worried that the Romans would come and destroy them so they pressured Caiaphas, who was one of authority that the people would listen to..But the Pharisees believed in the resurrection so they knew Jesus was from God, so this had nothing to do with the resurrection, the Sadducees however did not believe in anything but themselves, power and wealth and the Pharisees were no better , they all colluded to kill Jesus even trying to get Him to incriminate himself for blasphemy by saying He was the Son Of God, that’s why Jesus kept saying”YOU
say that I am”.
Mark 15:2,,,,Are you King of the Jews asked Pilate?
“ YOU have said so, replied Jesus”
John 19:21,,,The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate. Do not write the king of the Jews
But that this man CLAIMED to be the King of the Jews.
These Pharisees and Sadducees are the same lot that today in these modern times, sanctify
And purify themselves in the Bohemian Grove. Church/ Gov. IMO
I believe God used Caiaphas because He does not want the people to believe. It’s not time yet..
I am new to all of this so please feel free to correct me. I watch in wonderment as Our God uses all kinds of donkeys to speak.😂
All Praise and Glory to Our Lord And Saviour Jesus Christ .Amen
