Lanterns, torches and weapons.
The men who sought Jesus were heavily armed!
That’s what rebels do – they arm themselves for battle.
Meanwhile, Jesus waited patiently.
In a sense, the events of John 18 are a microcosm of mankind’s history.
Specifically, our ‘armed rebellion’ against a loving and patient God.
We’ll consider that rebellion (and Christ’s response) in today’s study of John 18.
