Pilate Washes his Hands
24When Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that instead a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “You bear the responsibility.”25Allthepeopleanswered,“Hisbloodbe onusandonourchildren!”26So Pilate released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed Him over to be crucified.…

All the people answered
This phrase indicates a collective response from the crowd present at Jesus' trial before Pilate. The crowd likely consisted of various groups, including religious leaders and common citizens of Jerusalem. This collective response highlights the influence of the chief priests and elders who persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas' release and Jesus' crucifixion (Matthew 27:20). The phrase underscores the communal aspect of the decision, reflecting the societal and religious dynamics of the time.

“His blood be on us
This part of the verse signifies the crowd's acceptance of responsibility for Jesus' death. In biblical terms, "blood" often symbolizes life and guilt (Genesis 4:10,Leviticus 17:11). The crowd's declaration can be seen as an ironic fulfillment of the sacrificial system, where blood was required for atonement (Hebrews 9:22). Theologically, this statement foreshadows the redemptive power of Jesus' blood, which Christians believe brings forgiveness and reconciliation with God (Ephesians 1:7).

and on our children!”
This phrase extends the responsibility to future generations, reflecting the Jewish understanding of corporate identity and generational consequences (Exodus 20:5). Historically, this statement has been misused to justify anti-Semitic attitudes, which contradicts the broader biblical narrative of God's love and redemption for all people (Romans 11:1-2). Theologically, it emphasizes the gravity of rejecting Jesus as the Messiah, while also pointing to the hope of salvation available to all through faith in Him (Acts 2:38-39).

The crowd's declaration, "His blood be on us and on our children," shows the serious implications of our words and decisions. We must be mindful of what we say and the commitments we make.

Collective Responsibility
This passage highlights the concept of collective responsibility and the impact of communal decisions. It serves as a reminder of the importance of standing for truth, even when the majority may choose otherwise.

The Role of Repentance
Despite the crowd's initial rejection, the New Testament offers hope for redemption through repentance. This underscores the power of God's grace and the opportunity for forgiveness.

Prophetic Fulfillment
The events of Jesus' trial and crucifixion fulfill Old Testament prophecies, demonstrating the sovereignty of God and the unfolding of His redemptive plan.

Intergenerational Impact
The statement about the blood being on their children suggests the long-term consequences of actions. It encourages us to consider how our choices affect future generations.Top 10 Lessons from Matthew 27

Why did they say, "His blood be on us"?

What did Judas do with the blood money for betraying Jesus? He bought a field (Acts 1:18) and threw it into the temple; priests used it to buy a burial field (Matthew 27:5).

If good works don't save, why does Jesus say people will be judged by their actions in Matthew 25:31-46?

Who was Gladys Aylward and what did she do?(25)His blood be on us, and on our children.--The passionate hate of the people leads them, as if remembering the words of their own Law, to invert the prayer--which Pilate's act had, it may be, brought to their remembrance--"Lay not innocent blood to Thy people of Israel's charge" (Deuteronomy 21:8), into a defiant imprecation. No more fearful prayer is recorded in the history of mankind; and a natural feeling has led men to see its fulfilment in the subsequent shame and misery that were for centuries the portion of the Jewish people. We have to remember, however, that but a fractional part of the people were present; that some at least of the rulers, such as Joseph of Arimathaea, Nicodemus, and probably Gamaliel, had not consented to the deed of blood (Luke 23:51), and that even in such a case as this it is still true that "the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father" (Ezekiel 18:20), except so far as he consents to it, and reproduces it.

Verse 25. -Then answered allthe people. Instigated by the Sanhedrists working insidiously among them, the multitude, now very numerous, respond with fiendish alacrity to Pilate's deprecation. It was a unanimous, a national assumption of guilt, lightly undertaken, terribly vindicated.His blood be on us, and on our children. The consequences of this condemnation, be they what they may, we are willing to suffer. Let God visit it, if he will. upon us and our children; we and they will cheerfully bear the penalty. A mad and impious imprecation. the fulfilment of which quickly commenced, and has continued unto this day. The terrible events connected with the destruction of Jerusalem, the overthrow of the theocracy, and the eighteen centuries of exile and dispersion, bear witness to the reality of the vengeance thus wantonly invoked. "As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them" (Psalm 140:9).
