October 31, 2011 – Deuteronomy 21

According to verse 22-23, Christ should have been brought down regardless of the fact that it was Passover. They were not to allow a body, killed because of a capital act, hang there over night but be buried. Now that I am typing and thinking about that, they broke the legs so they would die before Passover. So, they could leave a body hanging overnight as long as they were still alive. But Christ had already died (they didn’t break His legs but pierced His side) so He would have been removed either way, according to this rule. Then again, maybe not, since the Romans were in charge, they might have left a dead body up regardless of the Jewish rules.
