the theoretical innocent of the jews at Jesus time
I believe that the jews were righteous for desiring to kill Jesus for making Himself God if that was what they thought He was doing. But the fact is they knew He was the annointed one and they killed Him out of envy. They may not have known completely because they refused to see but it was their envy that killed Him.
"If you were blind you would have no sin but now you say you see therefore your sin remains"
I am saying this because I sometimes am so carried up in worship to God in Jesus and wonder why everyone does not accept Him and so am given brief doubts which then can become severe but then I remember the many old testament prophesies about Him which when are understood are very great proofs
One being the LORD said to my LORD sit at my right hand
how could david call his son LORD even if he is greater than him connected with what daniel says
one like the son of man appeared before the ancient of days and to him was given a kingdom and dominion over all people that all peoples should serve him
