Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Face and the Cross: A Baccalaureate Sermon Preached at Delaware College, Newark, Delaware, June 16, 1901, Also at Christ Church, Waltham, Massachusetts, November 10, 1901 The place is Golgotha, the watchers are the "soldiers of the Governor," and Him they watch is Jesus of Nazareth. Near by, one on either side of Jesus cross, are other two condemned and crucified: these are not watched. It is not the crosses lifted from the hill; it is not the fear "lest His disciples should come and steal Him away;" it is not the gravity of His crime; it is not the assembled and accusing multitude; it is not the presence of Jewish dignitaries, that moves this little guard of Pilate´s soldiery to look at the Central Figure in this group of three rather than at the rest. By the hard custom of their business the executioners were indifferent to all this. Decisions of courts, and the wild people´s tumult, and flocking curiosity were to them as the idle wind, and by them unrespected. What, then, beckoned them out of their accustomed indifference and fixed their eyes on Him? I think it was His face. Have you ever studied faces? Unconsciously every man studies faces.
