Jesus on Trial

In this episode, Ben and Spencer walk through Jesus’ trial step by step—before the Sanhedrin, Pilate, Herod, and back to Pilate—showing how each phase is marked by legal irregularities, false accusations, and political pressure. The Sanhedrin breaks its own laws, Pilate repeatedly declares Jesus innocent but caves to the crowd, and Herod mocks rather than seeks truth. Throughout it all, Jesus remains calm and authoritative, turning the moment on its head. Instead of being truly judged, He exposes the injustice and moral failure of the very leaders who think they’re judging Him.
