John 19:1-5 SCOURGED. MOCKED. EXHIBITED. HATED. The horrible atrocities heaped upon the One Who came into the world to seek and to save that which was lost went beyond the bounds of reasonable human understanding. Where was the divinely inspired, Scripturally-based justice of Israel in the Jews' dealings with Jesus? Where was the much praised Roman justice when it came to His civil trials? Why was a bound Prisoner scourged and mocked and condemned to die when "the judge" repeatedly declared His innocence? Why was the Lord Jesus treated in a way that unparalleled the treatment of any other person in history? What is the secret of His gross mistreatment and injustice?
The answer is that divine restraint was removed so human depravity was permitted to demonstrate itself in all its deceitful fulness as representatives of both Jews and Gentiles crucified the Son of God Who came to save them. We are also told by Christ Himself that His unparalleled mistreatment was due to the fact that it was "Satan's Hour of Darkness" (see Luke 22:53). The "hour" had arrived when the serpent would bruise the Saviour's "heel" (Genesis 3:15).
Learn about this "hour" in both this and the following two lessons.
