Biblical Reading and Reflections: December 28th (Song of Songs 5 & Luke 23:1-25)
Alastair's Adversaria
Pilot for Barabbas
Christ forms not justhe unity of his people, but a sort of shadowy satanic unity. In opposition to him, all the kings of the earth are gathered together with the rulers against christ. That's what gives them their new unity. When jesus is sent back to him, pilot declares that neither he nor herod found anything deserving of death in jesus. The reference to barabbas seems to assume what is mentioned in the other gospels about the custom of pilot at the time of the feast. And so in choosing barabbas, the people choose the violent revolutionary over the true messiah and prince of peace.
