The mocking of Jesus occurred several times, after his trial and before his crucifixion according to the canonical gospels of the New Testament. It is considered part of Jesus' passion. According to the gospel narratives, Jesus had predicted that he would be mocked (Matthew 20:19, Mark 10:34, and Luke 18:32). The mocking of Christ took place in three stages: immediately following his trial, immediately following his condemnation by Pontius Pilate, and when he was on the cross. The New Testament narratives of Jesus being mocked are filled with irony, while the mockery focuses on Jesus' prophetic and kingly roles.〔Larry Chouinard, (Matthew ) (1997), p. 487.〕〔David L. Tiede, (Luke ) (1988), p. 398.〕 ==First stage== After Jesus' condemnation by the Sanhedrin, some spat on him (Mark 14:65). He was blindfolded and beaten, and then mocked: "Prophesy! Who hit you?" (Luke 22:63). This was done by those men who "held Jesus" (Luke 22:63, King James Version). The New International Version translates this as "the men who were guarding Jesus", but Joel B. Green takes the phrase to refer to the "chief priests, the officers of the temple police, and the elders" mentioned in verse 52.〔 Green suggests that Jesus suffers the mockery that is typical of prophets, and that it indicates his "solidarity with God's agents who speak on God's behalf and are rejected."〔Joel B. Green, ''(The Gospel of Luke )'' (1997), p. 789.〕 Susan R. Garrett sees Mark's inclusion of the mockery as an example of irony, since Jesus is indeed a prophet, at the very moment his prophecy that Peter would deny him was being fulfilled.〔Susan R. Garrett, (The Temptations of Jesus in Mark's Gospel ) (1998), p. 118.〕 The prophetic assignment is not always portrayed as positive in the Bible,〔Commentary on Jeremiah, The Jewish Study Bible, Oxford University Press, 2004〕〔Isaiah (Commentary), John Goldingay, Hendrickson, 2001〕〔Commentary on Isaiah 6:8-13, The Jewish Study Bible, Oxford University Press, 2004〕 and prophets were often the target of persecution and opposition.〔’’Jeremiah (Prophet)’’, The Anchor Bible Dictionary Volume 3, Doubleday, 1992〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mocking of Jesus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
