Who was Jesus when He stood before the governor?
When Jesus stood before the Roman governor, He was the Creator of the whole universe, including the very men sitting in judgment over Him. Though He had power to annihilate Jerusalem with one word, He stood meek as a lamb and said nothing.
Les explains that in Matthew 27, after the night-time mock trial, Jesus was brought before the governor, the Roman authorities. The text says Jesus stood before the governor. Les emphasizes who He is: the Creator of the whole universe and the Creator of the very men who were then sitting in judgment over Him. Yet He stood there meek as a lamb and did not say a word. Les notes that with one word He could have annihilated the whole city of Jerusalem, but He stood before that governor.
