And set up over His head His accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
The end of a perfect life. Humiliation, rejection, ridicule. Hanging with nails through His hands and feet, a simple but profound plaque was nailed to the cross - JESUS the King of the Jews. What a condemnation of the Jewish nation. They had demanded the crucifixion of their King. But so did we. It was our sins that put Him on the cross. It was His love that held Him there. Let’s thank and remember Him today as we think about Jesus, our Lord and King.
