Bible Lesson: Messianic
Prophecies, Fulfilled, In Jesus Christ. Dying On The Cross, He Was
Mocked And Insulted.
Bible Text:
Prophecy:
Psalm 22:6-8 ERV (In the time of
King David-1085-1015 B.C.)
6 But I (Jesus Christ, God's eternal
Son. ed.) feel like a worm, less than human! People insult Me and
look down on Me.
7 Everyone who sees Me makes fun of
Me. They shake their heads and stick out their tongues at Me.
8 They say, “Call to The Lord (God
The Father) for help. Maybe He will save you. If He likes you so
much, surely He will rescue you!”
Fulfilled:
Matthew 27:27-31, 39-44 ERV A.D. 33
(Pilate’s
Soldiers Make Fun of Jesus)
27 Then
Pilate’s soldiers took Jesus into the governor’s palace. All the
soldiers gathered around Him.
28 They took
off Jesus’ clothes and put a red robe on Him.
29 Then they
made a crown from thorny branches and put it on His head, and they
put a stick in His right hand. Then they bowed before Him, making fun
of Him. They said, “We salute you, King Of The Jews!”
30 They spit on
Him. Then they took his stick and kept hitting Him on the head with
it.
31 After they
finished making fun of Him, the soldiers took off the robe and put
His own clothes on Him again. Then they led Him away to be killed on
a cross.
39 People walked by and shouted
insults at Jesus. They shook their heads
40 and said, “You said you could
destroy the Temple and build it again in three days. So save
yourself! Come down from that cross if you really are The Son Of
God!”
41 The leading priests, the teachers
of the law, and the older Jewish leaders were also there. They made
fun of Jesus the same as the other people did.
42 They said, “He saved others,
but He can’t save Himself! People say He is The king Of Israel. If
He is The King, He should come down now from the cross. Then we will
believe in Him.
43 He trusted God. So let God save
him now, if God really wants Him. He Himself said, ‘I am The Son Of
God.’”
44 And in the same way, the
criminals on the crosses beside Jesus also insulted Him.
The
Word:
Isaiah 50:6 KJV
I gave My back to the smiters, and
My cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not My face from
shame and spitting.
Matthew 20:18,19
KJV
18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem;
and The Son Of Man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto
the scribes, and they shall condemn Him to death,
19 And shall deliver Him to the
Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify Him: and the third
day He shall rise again.
Mark 10:33,34
KJV
33 Saying, Behold, we go up to
Jerusalem; and The Son Of Man shall be delivered unto the chief
priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn Him to death,
and shall deliver Him to the Gentiles:
34 And they shall mock Him, and
shall scourge Him, and shall spit upon Him, and shall kill Him: and
the third day He shall rise again.
Mark
15:16-20,29-32 NLT (The Soldiers Mock Jesus)
16 The soldiers took Jesus into the
courtyard of the governor’s headquarters (called the Praetorium)
and called out the entire regiment.
17 They dressed Him in a purple
robe, and they wove thorn branches into a crown and put it on His
head.
18 Then they saluted Him and
taunted, “Hail! King Of The Jews!”
19 And they struck Him on the head
with a reed stick, spit on Him, and dropped to their knees in mock
worship.
20 When they were finally tired of
mocking Him, they took off the purple robe and put His own clothes on
Him again. Then they led Him away to be crucified.
29 The people passing by shouted
abuse, shaking their heads in mockery. “Ha! Look at you now!”
they yelled at Him. “You said you were going to destroy the Temple
and rebuild it in three days.
30 Well then, save yourself and come
down from the cross!”
31 The leading priests and teachers
of religious law also mocked Jesus. “He saved others,” they
scoffed, “but He can’t save Himself!
32 Let this Messiah, this King Of
Israel, come down from the cross so we can see it and believe Him!”
Even the men who were crucified with Jesus ridiculed Him.
Luke 18:31-33
KJV
31 Then He took unto Him the twelve,
and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things
that are written by the prophets concerning The Son Of Man shall be
accomplished.
32 For He shall be delivered unto
the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and
spitted on:
33 And they shall scourge Him, and
put Him to death: and the third day He shall rise again.
Luke 22:63-65
NLT
63 The guards in charge of Jesus
began mocking and beating Him.
64 They blindfolded Him and said,
“Prophesy to us! Who hit you that time?”
65 And they hurled all sorts of
terrible insults at Him.
Luke 23:10,11,
35-37,39-43 KJV
10 And the chief priests and scribes
stood and vehemently accused Him.
r11 And Herod with his men of war
set Him at naught, and mocked Him, and arrayed Him in a gorgeous
robe, and sent Him again to Pilate.
35 And the people stood beholding.
And the rulers also with them derided Him, saying, He saved others;
let Him save Himself, if He be Christ, The Chosen Of God.
36 And the soldiers also mocked Him,
coming to Him, and offering Him vinegar,
37 And saying, If thou be The King
Of The Jews, save thyself.
39 And one of the malefactors which
were hanged railed on Him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself
and us.
40 But the other answering rebuked
him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same
condemnation?
41 And we indeed justly; for we
receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing
amiss.
42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord,
remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.
43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I
say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with Me in paradise.
Hebrews 2:9 KJV
But we see Jesus, who was made a
little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with
glory and honor; that He by the grace of God should taste death for
every man.
Hallelujah!
What a Savior!
“Man of Sorrows!”
what a name
For The Son Of God,
who came
Ruined sinners to
reclaim.
Hallelujah! What a
Savior!
Bearing shame and
scoffing rude,
In my place
condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon
with His blood.
Hallelujah! What a
Savior!
Guilty, vile, and
helpless we;
Spotless Lamb Of
God was He;
“Full atonement!”
can it be?
Hallelujah! What A
Savior!
Lifted up was He to
die;
“It is finished!”
was His cry;
Now in Heav’n
exalted high.
Hallelujah! What A
Savior!
When He comes, our
glorious King,
All His ransomed
home to bring,
Then anew His song
we’ll sing:
Hallelujah! What A
Savior!
