Psalm: 24

Meditation:  John
It’s one thing that someone sacrifices themselves for others, it is altogether different to sacrifice someone else out of fear or to maintain the status quo and/or your own influence. The fear of Roman reprisal caused Caiaphas to plot to kill and later condemn Jesus. It is ironic that he would prophecy what Jesus’s role would be in the redemption of those that would come to have faith in Him.
