LESSON VIII.—SABBATH, NOVEMBER 24, 1894

BEFORE THE JUDGMENT SEAT.

Lesson Scripture. Luke 22: 63-71; 23: 1-12.
  1. AND the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him.
  2. And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophecy; who is he that struck thee?
  3. And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.
  4. And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,
  5. If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe;
  6. And if I ask you, ye will not answer.
  7. But from henceforth shall the Son of Man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.
  8. And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
  9. And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
  10. And the whole company of them rose up, and brought him before Pilate.
  11. And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Cæsar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king.
  12. And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest.
  13. And Pilate said unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find no fault in this man.
  14. But they were the more urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, and beginning from Galilee even unto this place.
  15. But when Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man were a Galilean.
  16. And when he knew that he was of Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him unto Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in these days.
  17. Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad; for he was of a long time desirous to see him, because he had heard concerning him; and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.
  18. And he questioned him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
  19. And the chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
  20. And Herod with his soldiers set him at naught, and mocked him, and arraying him in gorgeous apparel sent him back to Pilate.
  21. And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day; for before they were at enmity between themselves.
