Text: John 11:17-53. Hymn: LSB 439, “O Dearest Jesus, What Law Hast Thou Broken,” vv. 9-15.

I found the decision of where to start and stop in John 11 to be an interesting one. I cut it in the places where it spoke the most about Jesus.
Verses 49-52, where Caiaphas alludes to substitutionary atonement (I told you this Bible thing had doctrine in it), reminds me of Peter confessing Christ as the Son of God, because it’s a situation where the confessor (Peter, Caiaphas) may not have had the best grasp on what he is confessing. That doesn’t make what they say any less true.
