Over at
Weedon's blog, the good pastor considers the account of Jesus and Barabbas. We can read that account and see a cruel and ironic twist that there were people who demanded for a murderer to be freed, and for a healer to be killed. The pastor suggests that these may be Jesus' thoughts:
You WANT Barabbas to be free. Love divine, all loves excelling.
It is what he came for: to set the captives free, and take away transgression.
We are Barabbas, are we not?
Yes.
