    Exposition 1

    I. The crucifixion of Jesus was fully under the control of God (47-56)

    Matthew 26:47 ESV
    47 While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people.
    Matthew 26:48 ESV
    48 Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.”
    Matthew 26:49 ESV
    49 And he came up to Jesus at once and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” And he kissed him.
    Matthew 26:50 ESV
    50 Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.” Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him.
    Matthew 26:51 ESV
    51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.
    Matthew 26:52 ESV
    52 Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword.
    Proverbial saying
    Matthew 26:53 ESV
    53 Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?
    Legion = 6,000
    12 Legions = 72,000
    Matthew 26:54 ESV
    54 But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?”
    Matthew 26:55 ESV
    55 At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Day after day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me.
    Matthew 26:56 ESV
    56 But all this has taken place that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.

    II. Jesus is the innocent Son of God and Man, and was judged guilty (57-68)

    Matthew 26:57 ESV
    57 Then those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.
    Matthew 26:58 ESV
    58 And Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.
    Matthew 26:59 ESV
    59 Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death,
    Fake News
    Matthew 26:60 ESV
    60 but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forward
    Matthew 26:61 ESV
    61 and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to rebuild it in three days.’ ”
    Took Jesus’ words out of context
    Matthew 26:62 ESV
    62 And the high priest stood up and said, “Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?”
    God is using Jesus’ own words to bring about the fulfillment
    Matthew 26:63 ESV
    63 But Jesus remained silent. And the high priest said to him, “I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
    As a sheep before His shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth
    Matthew 26:64 ESV
    64 Jesus said to him, “You have said so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
    Matthew 26:65 ESV
    65 Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy.
    Matthew 26:66 ESV
    66 What is your judgment?” They answered, “He deserves death.”
    Substitution
    Matthew 26:67 ESV
    67 Then they spit in his face and struck him. And some slapped him,
    Matthew 26:68 ESV
    68 saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?”

    II. Jesus is the innocent Son of God and Man, and was judged guilty (57-68)
