I. The title as throwing light on the actors in the tragedy.
We may consider it, first, in its bearing on Jesus' claims. He wascondemned by the priests on the theocratic charge of blasphemy, because He made Himself the Son of God. He was sentenced by Pilate onthe civil charge of rebellion, which the priests brought against Himas an inference necessarily resulting from His claim to be the Son ofGod. They drew the same conclusion as Nathanael did long before:'Rabbi, Thou art the Son of God, ' and
... therefore 'Thou art the King ofIsrael. ' And they were so far right that if the former designation iscorrect, the latter inevitably follows.
Both charges, then, turned on His personal claims. To Pilate Heexplained the nature of His kingdom, so as to remove any suspicionthat it would bring Him and His subjects into collision with Rome, but He asserted His kingship, and it was His own claim that gavePilate the material for His gibe. It is worth notice, then, thatthese two claims from His own lips, made to the authorities whorespectively took cognisance of the theocratic and of the civic lifeof the nation, and at the time when His life hung on the decision ofthe two, were the causes of His judicial sentence.
