Did Jesus Commit Suicide By Cop
January 28, 2015 at 8:21 am (This post was last modified: January 28, 2015 at 8:23 am by Nope.)
According to the New Testament, Jesus knew that he was going to die if he remained in Jerusalem. He even knew that Judas would betray him. Further, he drew attention to himself by sending his 2 apostles to take/steal a white donkey for him to ride into the city. Jewish people would have known that by entering the city in such a fashion, Jesus was claiming to be the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy in Zechariah. Because he was apparently not a stupid man, Jesus would have been aware that his actions would antagonize the authorities


Quote:All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass

Why are his actions not considered a form of suicide?
