  • Tiberius, the Emperor of Rome. Pontius Pilate, the Governor of Judea
    VIPs The Second Sunday of Advent Luke 3:1-7 Tiberius, the Emperor of Rome. Pontius Pilate, the governor of Judea. Herod, the ruler of Galilee. Philip, ruler of Ituraea and Trachonitis. Lysanias, ruler of Abilene. Annas and Caiaphas, high priests of Jerusalem. If we’re honest, it’s hard to care about who was in charge of what in the first century, especially when those names read like extraneous details—a kind of prelude to the rest of the story. To our brothers and sisters of the first century, our indifference would have been nothing short of unfathomable. To them, those men are the story. As emperor, Tiberius is the one whom everyone worships, a sort of demigod of peace and prosperity. Pontius Pilate’s clout and authority stems from his world as the emperor’s envoy in Judea. Herod, Philip, and Lysanias are Pilate’s local emissaries, and therefore they are also held in high esteem. Lastly, Annas and Caiaphas are the ones to whom Jews in the region followed and trusted for matters spiritual and practical. Together, these 7 men are the ones everyone expects to be be inked into the annals of history and carved into the porticos of temples and marketplaces. That John the Baptist is the one we remember most today would have been nothing short of offensive to them. John doesn’t have the blue-blood lineage or socially esteemed position of the others. What he has is a reputation for endless bad hair days and dinners of dried, crusty bugs. On top of that, much of his adulthood has been spent in the barren and lifeless wilderness— a place of low expectations, A place most people avoid, a place where God often seems silent.

  • LUKE Week 1 - Day 1
    LUKE Week 1 - Day 1: Many people have set out to write accounts about the events that have been fulfilled among us. They used the eyewitness reports circulating among us from the early disciples. Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write an accurate account for you, most honorable Theophilus, so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught. 1. What stood out to you this week? 2. Was there anything confusing or troubling? 3. Did anything make you think differently about God? 4. How might this change the way we live? -------------------------------- LUKE Week 1 - Day 2: It was now the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius, the Roman emperor. Pontius Pilate was governor over Judea; Herod Antipas was ruler over Galilee; his brother Philip was ruler over Iturea and Traconitis; Lysanias was ruler over Abilene. Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests. At this time a message from God came to John son of Zechariah, who was living in the wilderness. Then John went from place to place on both sides of the Jordan River, preaching that people should be baptized to show that they had repented of their sins and turned to God to be forgiven. Isaiah had spoken of John when he said, “He is a voice shouting in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord’s coming! Clear the road for him! The valleys will be filled, and the mountains and hills made level. The curves will be straightened, and the rough places made smooth.

  • THE HATRED of the HOUSE of ANNAS PAUL GAECHTER, SJ. AMONG the Many Things Which the Writers of the New Testament Suppose to Be K
    THE HATRED OF THE HOUSE OF ANNAS PAUL GAECHTER, SJ. MONG the many things which the writers of the New Testament A suppose to be known to their readers is the role which the high priest Annas played in the history of those days. But little is recorded about him. A study of Annas' personality and influence is practically a study and interpretation of texts of Flavius Josephus. If we are not mistaken, Annas' influence can be traced up to the Jewish war, for he seems to have served as a model and motive whenever one of his family became high priest. Thus Annas' personality stands out more clearly by being reflected in their attitude. That is the reason why we have chosen the subject and title of this essay. THE HIGH PRIEST IN THE FIRST CENTURY A.D. In order to understand the politics of Annas and his House, it is indispensable to illustrate briefly the situation in which the high priests found themselves in the days of Jesus and the early Church, not so much in their relation to Rome, as in their position within the Jewish people; to this end we have to cast a glance at the history of high priest­ hood. Since Sadoq had been made hereditary high priest by Solomon in 973 B.C., his family held that dignity in undisputed possession for centuries, even through the Babylonian Exile, and down to the days when Antiochus IV Epiphanes, the Seleucid king of Syria, began to persecute the Jews. In 175 B.c., he deposed the last high priest, Onias II, whose legality was founded on his inheritance, and replaced him by his brother Jesus-Jason.
