HOW DID IT COME TO THIS, KING OF THE JEWS?

A Meditation for Good Friday, based upon the words of mockery and derision witnessed in the Four Gospels (NIV).

We cast lots for your clothes. I got your sandals.

Bah! What good are a dead man's sandals!

How did it come to this, King of the Jews?

I saw you. I saw you, when you came into the City - on a donkey! The King of Israel riding on a donkey!

How the mighty are fallen. They say that you were going to destroy the Temple and then rebuild it again in three days. That's quite a performance, King Jesus. Surely, if you can do all that, you can save yourself.

Come down from the Cross, if you are the Son of God!
