But why did Jews want to kill Jesus?\u00a0 Two reasons:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">(1) Jewish clergy believed Jesus\u2019 preaching was dividing the nation which would make the nation vulnerable to Roman domination\u2013(John 11:43-48). Killing Jesus would remove this threat, and as Jesus would be no more, his followers will also diminish\/die off: <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cAnd Caiaphas, being the high priest\u2026said unto them\u2026it is expedient for us. that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not. And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation; And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad. Then they took counsel together for to put him to death. Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews but went\u2026into Ephraim\u201d\u2013(John 11: 49-54).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Notably, that Caiaphas did not speak of \u201chimself\u201d but \u201cprophesied\u201d that Jesus should die, does not mean that Caiaphas was repeating any prophecy that Jesus came to be crucified; all it means is that Caiaphas was speaking not as an ordinary priest but as \u201chigh priest\u201d and he has given the judgment\/decision that Jesus will be killed to save the nation from Roman domination. The following words <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cThen they took counsel together for to put him (Jesus) to death\u201d<\/span> confirm this. If Caiaphas knew Jesus would be killed to fulfill prophecy it would have been pointless for Caiaphas to plot Jesus\u2019 death.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Moreover, Caiaphas could not have known the manner, time and place of Jesus\u2019 death and would have been trying to circumvent or competing with Divine decree, which would amount to an absurdity. Also, the speaking about gathering \u201cthe children of God that were scattered abroad;\u201d \u201cabroad\u201d could not mean the rest of the world. Jesus could have hardly have followers outside of his area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">\u00a0\u00a0 (2) The other reason Jews wanted to kill Jesus was because of his condemnation of Jewish hierarchy. Christian authority is\u00a0 cognizant of this fact. The Self-Pronouncing Edition of the <em>King James Bible<\/em>, by <em>The World Publishing Company<\/em>, 2231 West 110TH Street, Cleveland 2, Ohio, (p. 77) notes in its section \u2018Bible Dictionary\u2019 under the term \u2018scribe,\u2019<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">\u201cTheir familiarity with the law allowed the scribes to take on a role of growing importance in Jewish society \u2013teaching in the synagogues, serving as judges, and becoming members of the Sanhedrin. Jesus refused to accept the mass of detail and the superficial technicalities which they affixed to the law, and He accused them of hypocritical interpretations of the law. For these reasons they opposed His teachings and were one of\u00a0 the groups, as were the Pharisees, that helped to plot His death\u2013(Matt. 5:20; 21:15; Mark 10:33; 14:53; Luke 11:44; 20: 46; John 8:3; Acts 4:5; 6:12).\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800080; font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Had Jesus not condemn Jewish hierarchy and had they not fear Roman domination of their nation because of Jesus\u2019 influence on the people, there would have been no talk about Jesus being killed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Another observation.

When taken in its context, from verse one, it shows Jesus was speaking to Nicodemus about to miracles and alluding himself to the brass serpent in Moses\u2019 time which serpent had the power to preserve life\u2013(Numbers 21:9). Giving the proper meaning of John 3:16:<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cFor God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son <em>the power to perform miracles<\/em> that whosoever believeth in him<em> to be from God through these works of\u00a0 miracles <\/em>should not perish, but have everlasting life.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\nMiracles were necessary because the people believed only in miracles: <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cExcept ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe\u201d\u2013(John 4:48).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">It is a gruesome sense of love to have a man, moreover an innocent man, brutalized, fixed to a cross\/pole and murdered for the sin of another man.
