Matthew 27:11-26 | The Guilty and the Innocent

After Jesus has been abandoned, betrayed, arrested, and accused by his own people, Matthew depicts Him standing trial before the Roman governor Pilate. Unlike the Jewish religious leaders, Pilate doesn’t personally find any fault with Him. Nevertheless, God’s sovereign plan for redemption moves forward as Pilate yields to the external pressures of the crowd.
