The Trial of Jesus – Revision Notes
- After Jesus was arrested:
Jesus was taken to be questioned by religious leaders who wanted to find a reason to have Him killed. - People tell lies:
At the trial, people gave false evidence (lies) about Jesus to try and get Him into trouble. - Peter’s denial:
Peter, one of Jesus’ closest disciples, was scared.
He told people that he didn’t even know Jesus — not once, but three times, just as Jesus had predicted. - Jesus is taken to Pilate:
The religious leaders took Jesus to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, because they didn’t have the power to sentence someone to death. - Pilate questions Jesus:
Pilate couldn’t find anything wrong with Jesus, but he was pressured by the crowd to do what they wanted. - The crowd chooses Barabbas:
The people were asked who should be released: Jesus or Barabbas (a criminal).
The crowd chose Barabbas. - Jesus is mocked by soldiers:
Roman soldiers made fun of Jesus, put a purple robe on Him, and placed a crown of thorns on His head to mock Him as the "King of the Jews." - The crown of thorns:
The crown was made from sharp branches and caused pain and humiliation. - Pilate gives in:
Even though he believed Jesus was innocent, Pilate sentenced Him to be crucified, trying to keep peace with the angry crowd. - Why this matters:
Jesus went through all of this with patience and love, showing that He was willing to suffer for others and forgive, even when He was treated unfairly.
