How tempting the path of least resistance is to us. Pilate kept trying to find such a path…he hesitated, he passed the buck, and he looked for compromise…he turned this way and that…but at every turn…RESISTANCE. Why did Pilate try so hard to avoid making the decision about Jesus his own? Like people today he doesn’t want to take responsibility for the decision so he tries to avoid making the decision. This strategy does not work because indecision is a decision.
