And They Smote Him!"
Ellington Teaches the Worlds Largest Adult Bible

Matthew, the 18th chapter,
verse "a, Jesus soith unto him,
Thou host sold: nevertheless |
soy unto you, Hereafter shall ye
see the Son of man sitting on
the right hond of power, and
coming in the clouds Of heoven."
Little did the high priest of
that doy know thot Christ wos
the Son Of God, and had the
power of Heaven ond earth in
His hand to do whatsoever He
would.
Verse IS, "Then the high
priest rent his clothes, soyina,
He hoth spoken bIosphery:
what further need hove we of
Witnesses Behold, now ye have
heord his bIosphemy."
To rent ones clothing simply
meant thot he wos very much
fingered over what had been
sold or done. Here the high
priest heord Jesus say He wos
the greet powers of God. He
cried to the multitude oskino,
what further witness have
weo"
So it is todoy, unoodIy phori-
sees, mean preachers who
have never been soved. find q
man who hos, been soved and
try to trip him in something he
hos sold.
Verse 66, "Whot think ye3
They answered ond sold. He is
guilty Of deoth."
Yes, according to the pIon
and prooror they hod, or may
be according to what they hod
proven by foIse statements, they
sold Jesus Christ. the Son Of
God, wos guilty Of deoth.
Verse 81, Then did they
spit in his foce, ond buffeted
him: ond others srnote him with
the palms of their hands"
You will recall whot the old
prophet sold in Lamentations

see if there be any sorrow like
unto my sorrow, which is done
unto me, wherewith the Lord
