"Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles."
The narrative of Caiaphas and the council discussing Jesus represents a tragic moment in scripture rivaled only by events such as the stoning of Stephen (Acts 7:54-60), the disobedience of the children of Israel in Numbers 14:2, and David’s sin with Bathsheba (Second Samuel 11). This discussion, sparked by the miracles of Jesus, culminates in a chilling decision that highlights a critical moral junction faced by the council—a junction equally relevant today.
