Satan and his angels were busy. They blinded the eyes and darkened the understanding of
the Jews. Satan stirred up the chief of the people and the rulers to take his life. They sent officers to
bring Jesus unto them, and as they came near where he was, they were greatly amazed. They saw
Jesus stirred to sympathy and compassion, as he witnessed human woe. They saw him in love and
tenderness speak encouragingly to the weak and afflicted. They also heard him, in a voice of
authority, rebuke the power of Satan, and bid the captives held by him, go free. They listened to the
words of wisdom that fell from his lips, and they were captivated. They could not lay hands on him.

They returned to the priests and elders without Jesus. They inquired of the officers, Why have ye
not brought him? They related what they had witnessed of his miracles, and the holy words of
wisdom, love and knowledge which they had heard, and ended with saying, Never man spake like
this man. The chief priests accused them of being also deceived. Some were ashamed that they had
not brought him. The chief priests inquired in a ridiculing manner if any of the rulers had believed
on him. I saw that many of the magistrates and elders did believe on Jesus. But Satan kept them
from acknowledging it. They feared the reproach of the people more than they feared God.
Thus far the cunning and hatred of Satan had not broken up the plan of salvation. The time
for the accomplishment of the object for which Jesus came into the world was drawing on. Satan
and his angels consulted together, and decided to inspire Christ.s own nation to cry eagerly for his
blood, and invent cruelty and scorn to be heaped upon him. He hoped that Jesus would resent such
treatment, and not maintain his humility and meekness.
