But the sun's rays produce one effect upon a morass, and another on the slumbering germs of a well-tilled field. To form a correct idea, however, of Pilate's state of mind, a different figure must be found to either of those just mentioned. For we still find in him a degree of humanity and of susceptibility for something' better. He is not the cold, shallow, wornout man of the world, to which many would degrade him. God, indeed, will judge him, but not with the lukewarm, who disgust him, and whom, like the Laodiceans, he will spue out of his mouth. The governor, after listening to the accusations of the priests and rulers, returns thoughtfully into his palace, and commands Jesus to be again brought before him. The sacred sufferer appears in silence in the chamber of his judge. It is evident that the Roman can not avoid feeling a degree of veneration for the wonderful man; and who is there can do otherwise? Even the rudest scoffers feel, in their consciences, the sting of their attacks upon the Lord Jesus, and endeavor, by means of ridicule, to drown the reproving voice within them for their enmity to him. Pilate begins his examination by asking, " Art thou the king of the Jews?" This he seems to have uttered in a mollified tone, in the full expectation of his saying in reply, " God forbid that I should seek after such high things I" Much would he have given to have heard such a declaration from his lips, partly, that he might have a legal ground for officially rejecting the accusation of the malignant Jews, and partly in order, in an easy manner, to get rid of the Nazarene, of whose innocence he is fully...

Book Description
In the following meditations I trust I have succeeded in displaying to my readers at least a portion of those riches which are contained in the inexhaustible treasury of our Savior's sufferings. Unmutilated scriptural truth, such as I believe I promulgate, still finds a favorable reception in the world, which I have been permitted to experience in the most gratifying manner. I mention it, solely to the praise of God, and for the satisfaction of those who are like-minded, that my writings, or at least a part of them, are, as I hear, already translated into English, French, Dutch, Swedish, and as I am assured, though I cannot vouch for the fact, into the Danish language also. My "Elijah the Tishbite" has even appeared in a Chinese attire. But that which is of greater importance, is the news I am constantly receiving of the manifold blessing which the Lord of his great and unmerited favor has bestowed upon my labors. That in his condescension and loving-kindness, He would also deign to bless this my most recent work is so much the more my heartfelt wish and ardent prayer, since it has for its subject the chief supporting pillar of the whole church-the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Not illustrated. 1859 edition. Excerpt: ... thoughts and emotions passes1 through his soul . The taunting attack of his companion in tribulation on Jesus's left, loosens his tongue, whiji had been silent from contrition and reverence. He feels compelled to object against being included in the blasphemous appeal, " If thou be the Christ, save us !" He is constrained to renounce all participation in such insulting language. He knows the importance as well as the awfulness of the moment, which places an opening eternity before him, and feels no longer any fellowship with his companion in crime, as regards the man who is crowned with thorns. He has seen enough in the dignified individual, and has heard enough from him to be able to say to himself, " If this is not the promised consolation of Israel--that consolation will never arrive." He perceives in him, not only the bright mirror of his own degradation, but the only and final anchorage for his hopes. The horror which seizes him at the impious words of his fellow-sufferer is indescribable; and while judging him--to which he was entitled by first condemning himself--he.begins to say to him, " Dost thou not fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation ?" Ah, he himself trembled at the thought of the Judge of quick and dead ! The meaning of his words is as follows: " And thou, who like myself, art weltering in thy blood, and so near eternity, dost thou not fear God, who is a consuming fire to sinners, and who, as certainly as he will justify this righteous man, must pronounce his curse upon those, who, like thee, dare to rail at him. Be not deceived; God does not let himself be mocked." O how moving and heart-affecting is this call to repentance from one delinquent to another! But hear him further: " And we indeed justly, for we...
