Caiaphas, alone, was responsible for making annual sacrifices to God in the temple. Caiaphas was also in charge of the tem- ple coffers, temple guards and lower-ranking priests. Appointed to the position by his father-in-law, Caia- phas was power hungry and had a good thing going — a good thing going, until Jesus entered the scene and put a wrench in the works… Caiaphas hated Jesus. HATED Him! When Jesus drove the money changers out of the temple, Caiaphas lost a significant source of revenue. When Jesus taught in the temple, many Jews began switching their alliance to Jesus rather than Caiaphas. When Jesus started performing miracles, Jesus continued to whittle away at Caiaphas’s leadership. So when Jesus resurrected Lazarus, Caiaphas was fed up! Worried that the Jews would universally rise up to follow Jesus, Caiaphas feared that the Roman emperor would become angered if the taxes and assessments were not paid in full. So Caiaphas did the unthinkable. He gathered the other priests and developed a scheme to have Jesus arrested and executed. The degree of Caiaphas’s hatred can be measured in the Jewish laws that he broke to bring Jesus to trial. After his ar- rest in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus was brought to trial during a feast time (a big no-no). Priests were not given the chance to vote on Jesus’s fate privately, rather Caiaphas forced a public affirmation. Jesus was sentenced to death in less time than accorded by Mosaic law. The Jews exceeded their authori- ty to execute prisoners. Jesus was denied legal representation. Jesus was asked to incriminate himself, against Mosaic law. Jesus’s trial was rigged to result in a guilty version. Caiaphas knew it; Jesus knew it, and went along with it. The execution of an innocent man fulfilled the Divine plan, and Caiaphas was merely an evil pawn in the plan. Hatred is evil. It is a tool used by Satan to steer us away from God and His love. We must always stay on guard against anyone and everyone who espouse hatred directed toward others. God is LOVE, and we can- not fully receive His love if we harbor hatred for others in our hearts. The only hatred we should hold onto is hatred of sin.

(www.Lockman.org) Lesson 4 Introduction 1. Lesson 1 was devoted to the prayers of Jesus in Gethsemane. 2. Lesson 2 discussed the arrest of Jesus and He being bound over to Annas in the middle of the night. 3. Lesson 3 was a discussion of His illegal trial before Annas the former high priest, and the fact no formal charges were made against Him. 4. This lesson will be a discussion of His Pre-Dawn Trial Before Caiaphas And The Sanhedrin. Pre-Dawn Trial Before Caiaphas And The Sanhedrin 1. Jesus was first tried before Annas. (Jn. 18:12-13, 24). JOH 18:12 So the Roman cohort and the commander, and the officers of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound Him, JOH 18:13 and led Him to Annas first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. JOH 18:24 Annas therefore sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. 2. He will now be tried before the Sanhedrin and Caiaphas the current high priest. (Jn. 18:13, 24). 3. There will be later a post-dawn trial before Sanhedrin and after that a trial before Pilate the Roman governor. 4. The gospel writers all mention this pre-dawn trial before Caiaphas. (Matt. 26:57; Mk. 14:53; Lk. 22:54; Jn. 18:24). MAT 26:57 And those who had seized Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.

  • Chapter 20 John's Gospel, the Gnostics and Supplimenting
    CHAPTER 20 JOHN’S GOSPEL, THE GNOSTICS AND SUPPLIMENTING THE SYNOPTICS The History and the Dating of John’s Gospel The records of the historians are consistent with one another. According to the Old Latin Prologue to John, Bishop Papias of Hierapollis (60-138) related that he had written the Gospel as John had dictated it to him (RO 150). This claim may have been concerning the last chapter only. Papias said John had composed it at the request of the bishops of Asia against Cerinthus and other heretics, especially the Ebionites. Papias added that John knew the other three gospels and had written to supplement them. (RO 151). Irenaeus (120-180) wrote: ‘Later on too, John, the disciple of the Lord, who had even reclined on his bosom, he too brought out a Gospel while he was dwelling in Ephesus of Asia’. (RO 129). [Present day Turkey] A long fragment of the Muratorian Canon was discovered in 1740 by Cardinal Muratori in the Ambrosian library at Milan. Internal evidence shows it was composed between 141- 155 AD. Some attribute its authorship to Hippolytus. The Latin text, confirmed by other finds, appears to have been translated from the Greek. (RO 138-139) It explains that John wrote: at the insistence of his fellow-disciples and bishops. John agreed and asked them “to fast with him for three days, and what shall have been revealed to each let us, relate to one another”. That same night it was revealed to the Andrew, one of the Apostles, that whatever came to the minds of them all, John, in his own name, should write it all down.

Anderson Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.georgefox.edu/ccs Part of the Christianity Commons News and Interpretations on the Bible and Ancient Near East History. "Jesus: His Life from the Perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas" (Pt. 2) By Paul N. Anderson George Fox University Newberg, Oregon April 2019 Following on the first two episodes of the History Channel’s “Jesus: His Life,” focusing on perspectives of Joseph and John the Baptist, the second installment continues the hybrid approach, reflecting on the life of Jesus from the perspectives of Mary and Caiaphas. The opening episode features Jesus visiting Jerusalem as a twelve-year old, as portrayed in Luke 2. Beginning with Mary and her memory of the infancy and childhood of Jesus, things move forward quickly into the story of his engaging the Jewish authorities in the temple. While nothing else is known about the childhood and early adulthood of Jesus, the memory of his engaging religious authorities in Jerusalem must have influenced Mary’s impression of his mission and special calling in life. The episode tracks with the traditional view that Joseph may have died before the ministry of Jesus began, which would have led to his working as a carpenter to support the family. Along these lines, several conjectures of tensions between Jesus and his brother are presented. First, his brothers may have resented his ministry-related departure—imposing on them to provide for the family’s welfare.

  • From Hades to Hell Christian Visions of the Underworld (2Nd–​5Th Centuries Ce)
    Chapter 13 From Hades to Hell Christian Visions of the Underworld (2nd– 5th centuries ce) Zissis D. Ainalis When men and women of the Graeco- Roman world in the first century got word about the resurrection of Jesus Christ, something about that story rang a bell. After all, some of the greatest heroes of their literature and their reli- gion had gone to the Underworld and returned alive. Odysseus and Aeneas, Herakles and Orpheus – they all went to Hades in search of the dead. Glen Bowersock is certainly right when he insists that the great difference between Jesus and all the others was that he was dead, that he really died and was resurrected, and that the notion of resurrection was strange and absurd to Graeco- Roman perception.1 However, this central event of Christianity inev- itably called to mind the great characters of the Graeco- Roman tradition and, in this sense, eased the way for the acceptance of this new Semitic religion by Graeco- Roman society. This process will here be primarily illustrated by three texts: the Gospel of Nicodemus, the Vision of Paul and the Life of Saint Macarius the Roman. While these works belong in different centuries and to some extent in different literary traditions, they all display the way in which the Graeco- Roman heritage was recognized, used and developed in the Late Antique and early Byzantine tradition. The Gospel of Nicodemus From early on, Christians started to speculate about the passage of Jesus to the Kingdom of Death. Initially it may have been a taboo to call it Hades, but custom and tradition eventually prevailed.

  • Truth and Consequences I. Selective Morality
    Truth and Consequences 28 Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover. 29 Pilate then went out to them and said, “What accusation do you bring against this Man?” 30 They answered and said to him, “If He were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you.” 31 Then Pilate said to them, “You take Him and judge Him according to your law.” Therefore the Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,” 32 that the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled which He spoke, signifying by what death He would die. 33 Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus, and said to Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” 34 Jesus answered him, “Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?” 35 Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?” 36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.” 37 Pilate therefore said to Him, “Are You a king then?” Jesus answered, “You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth.

    NARRATOR: Then they brought Jesus from Caiaphas to the praetorium. It was morning. And they themselves did not enter the praetorium, in order not to be defiled so that they could eat the Passover. So, Pilate came out to them and said, SPEAKER: “What charge do you bring against this man?” NARRATOR: “If he were not a criminal, we would not have handed him over to you.” SPEAKER: “Take him yourselves and judge him according to your law.” NARRATOR: The Jews answered him, “We do not have the right to execute anyone,” in order that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled that he said indicating the kind of death he would die. So, Pilate went back into the praetorium and summoned Jesus. SPEAKER: “Are you the King of the Jews?” JESUS: “Do you say this on your own or have others told you about me?” SPEAKER: “I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests handed you over to me. What have you done?” JESUS: “My kingdom does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my attendants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jews. But as it is, my kingdom is not here.” SPEAKER: “Then you are a king?” JESUS: “You say I am a king. For this I was born and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice.” SPEAKER: “What is truth?” NARRATOR: When he had said this, he again went out to the Jews and said to them, SPEAKER: “I find no guilt in him.

  • Jesus As Priest in the Gospels Nicholas Perrin
    Jesus as Priest in the Gospels Nicholas Perrin Nicholas Perrin is the Franklin S. Dryness Chair of Biblical Studies at Wheaton Grad- uate School and the former Dean of Wheaton Graduate School at Wheaton College. He earned his PhD from Marquette University. Most recently, he is the author of Jesus the Priest (SPCK/Baker Academic, 2018) and will also be publishing The Kingdom of God (Zondervan) in early 2019. A husband and the father of two grown sons, Dr. Perrin is a teaching elder in the Presbyterian Church in America. To the extent that New Testament (NT) Theology is concerned to convey the theologies of the NT writings as these have been critically interpreted, the project by nature entails a good deal of interpretative retrieval, that is, an up-to-date recounting of standard arguments and familiar paradigms for understanding the discrete canonical texts. One such “familiar paradigm,” easily demonstrable from the past hundred years or so of scholarly literature, holds that the Epistle to the Hebrews is unique by virtue of its emphasis on Jesus’ priesthood. From here, especially if one prefers to date Hebrews after the destruction of the temple, it is a straightforward move to infer that the concept of Jesus’ priesthood was entirely a post-Easter theologoumenon, likely occasioned by the destruction of the Jerusalem temple, and almost certainly limited in importance so far as first-century Christian belief was concerned. Whatever factors “in front of” the biblical text may have helped pave the way for this recurring interpretative judgment (here one may think, for example, of the fierce anti-sacerdotal character of so much nineteenth- and twenti- eth-century Protestant theology), it almost certainly mistaken.

  • Jesus Through the Eyes of Caiaphas and Pilate Matthew 26-27 “Then The
    Jesus through the Eyes of Caiaphas and Pilate Matthew 26-27 “Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, ‘He has blasphemed!’” “But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so that the governor was greatly amazed.” Caiaphas and Pilate. Priest and politician. Religion and politics. I think it no coincidence that, in Matthew’s Gospel, the hearing Jesus is given before the Sanhedrin (the religious council) mirrors the one-man trial he is given before Pilate, religion and politics being two sides of the coin of unbelief. In the house of Caiaphas, where the Sanhedrin has gathered, Caiaphas says to Jesus, “Have you no answer [to your accusers]? What is it that they testify against you?” Jesus is silent. Then the high priest asks him directly if he is the Messiah, the Son of God. Jesus responds, “You have said so.” Caiaphas is enraged. In the praetorium, the order is reversed. Pilate asks Jesus, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus responds, “You say so.” Then Pilate asks Jesus, “Do you not hear how many accusations they make against you?” Jesus is silent. Pilate is amazed until he is afraid. To ask how Caiaphas saw Jesus is to ask how religion (our seeking God) sees revelation (God seeking us). From the standpoint of revelation, religion is a human assumption and assertion that contradicts revelation. Therefore when revelation comes to us, we do not believe. If we did, we would listen, but in religion we talk. If we did, we would let God claim us, but in religion, we grasp at God.

  • “Jesus Or Barabbas?” Luke 23:13-25; Matthew 27:15-23; Mark 15:6-14; John 18:39,40
    The Six Trials of Jesus: The Sixth Trial before Pilate: “Jesus or Barabbas?” Luke 23:13-25; Matthew 27:15-23; Mark 15:6-14; John 18:39,40 Introduction The previous five trials of Jesus have been shown to be a sham, an enormous miscarriage of justice. The first three religious trials had Jesus before Annas, Caiphas, and the Sanhedrin, where false charges abounded. The last three trials took place before the officials of Rome, Pilate, then Herod, then Pilate again. Both Pilate and Herod had concluded that Jesus was not guilty. Yet, because of the pressure from the religious leaders and the people, Pilate gave in to the demands for Jesus to be nailed to the cross. The enormity of evil set against the grace of God is the story of our salvation through the blood of Jesus Christ. Trial #1: Jesus was taken to Annas, father-in-law of Caiaphas, high priest John 18:12-24 Trial #2: Jesus taken Caiaphas in the night Matthew 26:59-66; Mark 14:55-64 Trial #3: Because Jewish regulations forbade trying a prisoner at night, Caiaphas convened an early morning meeting of the Sanhedrin to have them declare Jesus guilty Luke 22:66-71; Matthew 27:1; Mark 15:1 Trial #4: Jesus was taken for the first meeting with Pilate Matthew 27:2,11-14; Mark 15:1-5; Luke 23:1-5; John 18:29-38 Trial #5: Pilate sent Jesus to Herod Luke 23:6-12 Trial #6: Jesus before Pilate for a second trial, with chief priests, rulers, and people Luke 23:13-25; Matthew 27:15-23; Mark 15:6-14; John 18:39,40 I.

  • Who Was Responsible for the Crucifixion Ofjesus?
    C HAPTER 10 Who Was Responsible for the Crucifixion ofJesus? CAIAPHAS, PONTIUS PILATE, AND THE HERODS he question of who is responsible for putting Jesus to death has been argued and re-argued on a regular basis. Those who read the gospel T accounts literally assign the blame largely to the Jews, led by Caiaphas, and see Pilate as someone who unwillingly went along with their demands. Current scholarship points toward Pilate and the Romans who were seeking to prevent a riot, though Caiaphas and the other Jewish leaders might have encouraged such a view.1 Herod is mentioned in the gospels in relation to Jesus’ death only because Pilate sees him as a way to avoid responsibility. Historically, Herod probably had nothing to do with Jesus’ death, though he did put John the Baptist to death, whether to prevent a rebellion or because of John’s criticism of his marriage. The books of three of the five authors here—Burgess, Ricci, and Kazantzakis—divide the blame between the Romans, led by Pilate, and the Jews, led by Caiaphas. Mailer’s novel puts the burden completely on the Jews, while Ricci’s does the same for the Romans. All five writers draw on the gospels and noncanonical writings and legends in crafting their characterizations of Caiaphas, Pilate, and Herod. CAIAPHAS Burgess’ novel develops Caiaphas much more fully than do any of the other books. The novels by Kazantzakis, Ricci, and Saramago barely mention him, as does Mailer’s, though Mailer’s lack of mention means much more than those of the others.
