The last “amazed” of Mark’s gospel is rather surprisingly not great teaching or great miracles, but silence. In Mark 15 Pilate is amazed, because Jesus keeps his mouth firmly shut as accusations fly. Pontius Pilate was a nasty piece of work.A harsh man, blasphemous and brutal – sacked a few years later for it and […]
