THE PICTURE OF THE ROMAN RULERS

Finally, we have a picture of the Roman gov­ ernment and its rulers. With these Roman rulers there was no justice. In this picture we see the darkness and corruption of Roman politics.

DEATH, RESURRECTION,

AND JUBILEE

As we consider these pictures, we can under­ stand the situation in the midst of which the God-man went to the cross. We need to realize that He was not brought to the cross—He went to the cross. On the cross He laid down His soul-­ life purposely to accomplish an all-inclusive death. This death ushered Him into resurrection. Through His death and resurrection the jubilee is accomplished. The jubilee is a release from bondage and the entering into the enjoyment of the Triune God (Luke 4:17-21). Furthermore, the Man-Savior brought His followers with Him into death. In this way He terminated them so that they could be replaced and germinated. Then

in His resurrection they could enjoy Him as their jubilee.
