We will continue to look at the passion of Christ as presented by Matthew. Matthew focuses our attention on the mocking and the shame that Jesus endured rather than the physical suffering. The text is Matthew 27:27-44. Both the offense of the cross and the irony of the gospel stand out in this passage.
We will consider these four points:
1. The Mocking of Jesus.
2. The Offense of the Cross.
3. The Wonderful Irony of the Gospel.
4. Encouragement for our Faith.
