18.5.18

Irony in the Life of Christ


Ironically, He wasn't passively taken by the wicked people and slain, but He actively and mercifully, and obediently and charitably and knowingly sacrificed Himself by the hands of those wicked men...  "Oh, how wonderful..."


And back in the Book of 1 Nephi, in the Book of Mormon, verse 33, we see irony when the wicked Jews "judge" Him as being worthy of death by crucifixion and hang Him on a tree!
