Paul, Robert, and Liz continue their conversation about how Jesus loves as the cross draws near, turning their attention to the trial scene with Pilate.
"Pilate is one of the people in the Gospels who we tend to see through a fairly fixed definition. The scene where he washes his hands is iconic: 'Behold, the man!' So we actually don't have a feel for him as a person. What's this guy like? It was Edersheim's book, The Life and Times of Jesus the Messiah, that first put me onto what's going on in this conversation."
"The beauty of poetry is this ability to condense infinity, and Jesus does it all the time.""There's a degree to which that mocking can help us not take ourselves too seriously, but there's also a way that mocking can prevent us from taking ourselves seriously enough."
