3. Matthew 26:3, High Priest, Caiaphas
• Matthew 26:3 Then the chief priests and the elders of the
people were gathered together in the court of the high
priest, named Caiaphas;
• Archaeological Study Bible on 26:3 says, “Caiaphas was the
high priests from A.D. 18 – 36. He was the son-in-law of
Annas, a former high priest, who served from A.D. 6– 15
and still wielded much influence following his tenure in
office. Caiaphas knew well how to maneuver the political
scene. The reputation of the office had been ruined, since
the Roman governor appointed and he deposed the
officeholder. The Jewish Qumran community (which
produced the Dead Sea Scrolls) was especially critical of
this Roman puppet, whom they called the “Wicked
Priest.".… In 1991 and ossuary (a limestone chest
containing the bones of the dead) was discovered in
Jerusalem, inscribed with the name Caiaphas.”

elders of the people were gathered together

mind, "You are a priest forever According to

5. Matthew 26:3, Jesus The High Priest
• Jesus’ high-priestly work is/was different than OT;
• Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who
cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who
has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without
sin.
• Hebrews 7:26…a high priest, holy, innocent, undefiled,
separated from sinners and exalted above the
heavens; 27 who does not need daily, like those high
priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and
then for the sins of the people, because this He did
once for all when He offered up Himself.
• Hebrews 8:1…we have such a high priest, who has
taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of the
Majesty in the heavens,

• Can we know what the table was shaped like
at the Last Supper? Christ in Prophecy Show
• Dr. David R. Reagan and Dr. James Fleming,

Biblical Archaeology.
8. Problems with Da Vinci's "The Last Supper"
• Dr. Fleming: ....There certainly are. As you know, Da
Vinci's "The Last Supper" is unique from his perspective
and for the facial expressions, the hand movements,
and so on. For example, it's too bad that he painted
daylight coming in, for the Passover is held in the
evening. It occurs in the eve after sun goes down. It's
also too bad Da Vinci painted table and chairs. The Last
Supper was a reclining meal. Sure, that Jesus and the
Apostles are all painted as being on one side of the
table makes it easy to observe their facial expressions,
but that wouldn't be how you would have been seated
at the time of Jesus....
9. Clues as to What Type of Table
• There are four words we look to in Luke 22:11-12 for
understanding the room where the Last Supper was
held....First Century people understand those four
descriptive words?... The first word is "large." Think mega.
Now, if it was a small room, you'd have a one-sided
reclining table. Archaeologists have discovered such like
that where food gets put on a little bench along one wall
with a mat in front of it... If it was a medium sized room, it
would be an "L" shaped reclining table where you recline
on two sides. If the room was mega-sized, then the table
was a large, three-sided, reclining table. They would have
use the word "triclinium" even though it is based on a Latin
word. Today in modern Israel, a couch in the living room is
also called a triclinium. And so, we can deduce that the Last
Supper was held at a three-sided reclining table.
10. Clues as to What Type of Table
• The second word is "upstairs." The reclining table for
the Last Supper is in a large room particularly located
upstairs. Most downstairs rooms have to have supports
to support a heavy upstairs and a roof, so larger rooms
tend to be located upstairs....
• The third word is "furnished." The upstairs room is
furnished actually with a table with mattresses. This
can be translated as "furnished" or a "table with
cushions." In all the Gospels the Apostles are said to be
reclining at the table....
11. Clues as to What Type of Table
• The fourth word is "guest." The guest chamber is called
a "kataluma." The guest chamber is a room where a
guest both eats and sleeps, meaning there is a table
that also happens to be with one step down from the
mattresses. ... The Last Supper was clearly in a guest
room where guests could both eat and sleep....
• So, in Jesus' day you were supposed to both eat and
sleep in the guest room. Archaeologists have actually
found over a thousand First Century reclining tables in
the triclinium form....

they were who did not believe, and who it was
that would betray Him.

20. Matthew 26:36
Gethsemane, Olive Press
• Dr. Fleming: We are now where we press olives. Understand
that you would have baskets or sometimes sacks held up by
stones in the back. A large stone is made ready so you can
really have a flat surface.
• Dr. Reagan: The olives are put under the stone on top and
then you'd hang weights on the beam that holds the stone
down?
• Dr. Fleming: Notice there are places to put more than one
weight. We just have a second weight on right now. Usually a
weight is as big as two people can lift up. Imagine as you put
the weight on seeing the olive juice running down the sides
and then into a collection vat for the olive oil.
21. Matthew 26:36
Gethsemane, Olive Press
• What is interesting is that this oil press is called, believe it or
not, a gethsemane. Geth means press and semane means oil,
so "pressed oil." Therefore, Jesus liked to pray at a garden
called The Garden of the Oil Press. If you ask anyone what do
you picture when you picture an oil press, they'll say liquid
running down the sides and something getting flatter and
flatter under pressure. So, I think the imagery is there. Jesus
feels pressed in The Garden of the Oil Press. With four
different weights there can be four different grades of olive
oil. When you put the first weight on, that's called the first
pressing for the virgin oil, which is used for religious purposes.
It's for anointing the sick. It's for the menorah in your
synagogue with the special seven day ceremony used in

• your synagogue with the special seven day ceremony used in
the lamp stand in the Temple.
• After you cupped the virgin oil all up, then you'd put the
second weight on. That becomes the largest press which is
used for cooking and eating.
• After taking the cooking oil away, you'd add the third weight.
The third press is a little bit bitter, so it is for your oil lamps.
You'd have a place for the wick in your lamp and you'd pour
the oil in the top.
• The fourth and final pressing is to make lye. Lye is used for
soap. We joke about Palmolive soap, but palm and olive oil
are actually used in soap. Isn't that amazing?
23. Matthew 26:36
Gethsemane, Olive Press
• Olive trees have so many uses that the people in Bible times
would see them as beautiful trees. The book of Hosea says,
"Like as an olive tree to a beautiful tree." In terms of olive
wood, the doors of the Temple were made of olive wood.
Then they got healed with anointing oil. For cooking, they had
salad oil used for eating. Today we can use olive oil to
generate electricity which provides lighting. It's used to make
soap. So, the olive tree truly makes for a beautiful tree....

weighed the mountains in a balance, And the hills in a pair of
scales? 13 Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, Or as His
counselor has informed Him? 14 With whom did He consult and who

understanding? 15…Behold, He lifts up the islands like fine dust….17

care for My sheep and will deliver them from all the places to which
they were scattered on a cloudy and gloomy day. 13 …I will feed
them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams, and in all the
inhabited places of the land. 14…on the mountain heights of Israel.
There they will lie down on good grazing ground and feed in rich
pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 "I will feed My flock and I will

bring back the scattered, bind up the broken and strengthen the

• David explained that he was a shepherd and had killed the
lion and the bear (Daniel 7:4-5) and that was in the context of
Israel being blasphemed, and threatened with extinction.
• Then David, the Shepherd to be King, killed Goliath, who

39. Matthew 26:52, How should a
Christian view gun control? Got Questions Ministries
• Question: "How should a Christian view gun control?"
Answer: ...Guns are readily available in the U.S., and
ownership is protected by the Constitution. ... the Bible
records many accounts of wars, battles, and the use of
weapons. Warfare is presented as an inevitable part of
living in a fallen world (Mark 13:7; James 4:1), and
weaponry is a necessary part of warfare. Weapons in the
Bible were also used for personal protection....In fact, it
was mentioned in a positive light by Jesus Himself on one
occasion (Luke 22:35-38) [Luke 22:36 And He said to them,
"But now, whoever has a money belt is to take it along,
likewise also a bag, and whoever has no sword is to sell
his coat and buy one.].
40. Matthew 26:52, How should a
Christian view gun control?
• Christians are called to submit to governing authorities, and
they are to obey the laws of the land (Romans 13:1-7; 1
Peter 2:13-17)....Another biblical principle to consider is
that “all who draw the sword will die by the sword”
(Matthew 26:52)....There is “a time for war and a time for
peace” (Ecclesiastes 3:8), and Peter confused the two.
Christianity supports personal freedom. Romans 14:1-4
indicates that, when Scripture does not clearly address a
particular issue, there is freedom for individual choice.
...Since the very beginning of humanity, people have been
killing other people, with and without weapons (see
Genesis 4). ...As far as the Bible is concerned, the use of
guns is a matter of personal conviction. There is nothing
unspiritual about owning a gun or knowing how to use one.
41. Matthew 26:52, How should a
Christian view gun control?
• There is nothing wrong with protecting oneself or loved
ones, even if it involves the use of weapons. We need not
pretend there is never a need for guns, but pointing a gun
at a person should always be a last resort. We should seek
to neutralize threats without violence whenever possible.
So, how should a Christian view gun control? With the
authority God has entrusted to it, the government has the
right to allow or disallow gun ownership to whatever
degree it deems right. We, as citizens, are called to submit
to whatever gun control laws the government institutes.
This is not, however, a statement on the wisdom of gun
control.
42. Matthew 26:52, How should a
Christian view gun control?
• There are good reasons to allow law-abiding citizens to own
guns. Ultimately, guns are not the problem. Sinful people
are the problem.

63. Romans 1:30 Proverbs 1:8; 13:1; 30:17 Matthew 26:39 Luke 2:51 2
Timothy 3:2 Jeremiah 35:18-19 Ephesians 6:1-3
Exodus 20:12, Honor Father And Mother
• Question: "What does it mean to honor my father and mother?"
Answer: Honoring your father and mother is being respectful in word and action and having an inward attitude of esteem for their position. The Greek word for honor means “to revere,
prize, and value.” Honor is giving respect not only for merit but also for rank. For example, some Americans may disagree with the President’s decisions, but they should still respect his
position as leader of their country. Similarly, children of all ages should honor their parents, regardless of whether or not their parents “deserve” honor.
God exhorts us to honor father and mother. He values honoring parents enough to include it in the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:12) and again in the New Testament: “Children, obey
your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father and mother which is the first commandment with a promise, so that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the
earth” (Ephesians 6:1-3). Honoring parents is the only command in Scripture that promises long life as a reward. Those who honor their parents are blessed (Jeremiah 35:18-19). In
contrast, those with a “depraved mind” and those who exhibit ungodliness in the last days are characterized by disobedience to parents (Romans 1:30; 2 Timothy 3:2).
Solomon, the wisest man, urged children to respect their parents (Proverbs 1:8; 13:1; 30:17). Although we may no longer be directly under their authority, we cannot outgrow God’s
command to honor our parents. Even Jesus, God the Son, submitted Himself to both His earthly parents (Luke 2:51) and His heavenly Father (Matthew 26:39). Following Christ’s example,
we should treat our parents the way we would reverentially approach our heavenly Father (Hebrews 12:9; Malachi 1:6).
Obviously, we are commanded to honor our parents, but how? Honor them with both actions and attitudes (Mark 7:6). Honor their unspoken as well as spoken wishes. “A wise son heeds
his father's instruction, but a mocker does not listen to rebuke” (Proverbs 13:1). In Matthew 15:3-9, Jesus reminded the Pharisees of the command of God to honor their father and
mother. They were obeying the letter of the law, but they had added their own traditions that essentially overruled it. While they honored their parents in word, their actions proved
their real motive. Honor is more than lip service. The word “honor” in this passage is a verb and, as such, demands a right action.
We should seek to honor our parents in much the same way that we strive to bring glory to God—in our thoughts, words, and actions. For a young child, obeying parents goes hand in
hand with honoring them. That includes listening, heeding, and submitting to their authority. After children mature, the obedience that they learned as children will serve them well in
honoring other authorities such as government, police, and employers.
While we are required to honor parents, that doesn’t include imitating ungodly ones (Ezekiel 20:18-19). If a parent ever instructs a child to do something that clearly contradicts God’s
commands, that child must obey God rather than his/her parents (Acts 5:29).
Honor begets honor. God will not honor those who will not obey His command to honor their parents. If we desire to please God and be blessed, we should honor our parents. Honoring
is not easy, is not always fun, and certainly is not possible in our own strength. But honor is a certain path to our purpose in life—glorifying God. “Children, obey your parents in
everything, for this pleases the Lord” (Colossians 3:20).

Gun Control, Self Defense
http://www.gotquestions.org/
• Question: "How should a Christian view gun control?"
Answer: The recent shootings across the United States have caused much heartache. The senseless and tragic incidents have also renewed the intensity of discussion regarding American
gun laws. Politicians, sportsmen, and theologians have all weighed in on the issue of gun control. Guns are readily available in the U.S., and ownership is protected by the Constitution.
How should a Christian view gun control? What does the Bible have to say that would apply to gun control?
The Bible was written long before the invention of any type of gun, so the phrase “gun control” will not be found in Scripture. However, the Bible records many accounts of wars, battles,
and the use of weapons. Warfare is presented as an inevitable part of living in a fallen world (Mark 13:7; James 4:1), and weaponry is a necessary part of warfare. Weapons in the Bible
were also used for personal protection. In some parts of Israel, robbers were common (see Luke 10:30), and many people carried weapons when they traveled. Carrying a weapon for
self-defense is never condemned in the Bible. In fact, it was mentioned in a positive light by Jesus Himself on one occasion (Luke 22:35-38).
Christians are called to submit to governing authorities, and they are to obey the laws of the land (Romans 13:1-7; 1 Peter 2:13-17). This would have to apply to gun laws, too. If American
gun laws change, American Christians should submit to these changes and work through democratic means toward any desired alternatives. The Bible does not forbid the possession of
weapons, and neither does it command such possession. Laws may come and go, but the goal of the believer in Jesus Christ remains the same: to glorify the Lord (1 Corinthians 10:31).
Another biblical principle to consider is that “all who draw the sword will die by the sword” (Matthew 26:52). Jesus said this to Peter when Peter tried to mount an imprudent “defense”
of Jesus against the mob that had come to arrest Him. Peter’s actions were not only futile against such a “large crowd armed with swords and clubs” (verse 47), but his rash behavior also
belied Jesus’ submissive attitude (verse 50) and worked against the fulfillment of Scripture (verse 54). There is “a time for war and a time for peace” (Ecclesiastes 3:8), and Peter confused
the two.
Christianity supports personal freedom. Romans 14:1-4 indicates that, when Scripture does not clearly address a particular issue, there is freedom for individual choice. America has
historically embraced the concept of personal freedom that resonates with this principle, and the founding documents guarantee wide freedoms regarding firearms. Some point to
Matthew 5:9, in which Jesus pronounces a blessing on the peacemakers, and apply it to the issue of gun control. The idea is that guns are antithetical to peace. This may be more of a
philosophical or political idea than a theological one, however. There is nothing theologically, or even logically, that links guns to a lack of peace; sometimes, guns help maintaincivil
peace.
Debates over whether to control guns or how much to control them depend largely on political and philosophical arguments, not moral ones. This is not to say that there is no moral
component to the issue. Obviously, the gun itself is amoral, an object that can be used for good or for evil. More important is the morality of the person wielding the gun, and that is too
often the missing consideration in the gun control argument. The fact that some sinners use guns to commit sin does not mean guns are the problem. Sin is the problem, and that’s a
moral and spiritual issue. Since the very beginning of humanity, people have been killing other people, with and without weapons (see Genesis 4). Taking a certain weapon out of
circulation might make murder more difficult but by no means impossible.
As far as the Bible is concerned, the use of guns is a matter of personal conviction. There is nothing unspiritual about owning a gun or knowing how to use one. There is nothing wrong
with protecting oneself or loved ones, even if it involves the use of weapons. We need not pretend there is never a need for guns, but pointing a gun at a person should always be a last
resort. We should seek to neutralize threats without violence whenever possible.
So, how should a Christian view gun control? With the authority God has entrusted to it, the government has the right to allow or disallow gun ownership to whatever degree it deems
right. We, as citizens, are called to submit to whatever gun control laws the government institutes. This is not, however, a statement on the wisdom of gun control. There are good
reasons to allow law-abiding citizens to own guns. Ultimately, guns are not the problem. Sinful people are the problem.

67. Matthew 26:17-20, The Last Supper
• By Dr. David R. Reagan
• Can we know what the table was shaped like at the Last Supper?
• This question was posed to Dr. James Fleming, one of the most knowledgeable teachers of Biblical Archaeology, on our show Christ in Prophecy. Dr. Fleming lived and taught in Israel for
37 years at Jerusalem University College and at the Hebrew University. His first claim to fame is that he discovered the ancient Eastern Gate buried beneath the current one. Dr. Fleming
has walked or motorcycled about every square mile of Israel, and is so familiar with Israel past and present that Israeli tour guides come to him for training.
• He now operates the Explorations in Antiquity Center in LaGrange, Georgia, an interactive museum where people here in the U.S. can experience the life and times of Jesus Christ in the
First Century. It's a fascinating place, and so in this series we're going to tour the facility to glean new insights into the Bible by understanding the manners, customs and times of the
Bible.

Problems with Da Vinci's "The Last Supper"
• Dr. Reagan: Jim, I want to talk with you about the Last Supper. As you well know, whenever Americans think of the Last Supper they always think of one thing — the magnificent painting
by Leonardo Da Vinci. But, there's some problems with that painting, right?
• Dr. Fleming: There certainly are. As you know, Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is unique from his perspective and for the facial expressions, the hand movements, and so on. For example, it's
too bad that he painted daylight coming in, for the Passover is held in the evening. It occurs in the eve after sun goes down.
• It's also too bad Da Vinci painted table and chairs. The Last Supper was a reclining meal. Sure, that Jesus and the Apostles are all painted as being on one side of the table makes it easy to
observe their facial expressions, but that wouldn't be how you would have been seated at the time of Jesus.
• At the Antiquity Center, one of the things we've tried to do here without demeaning that iconic picture is to help people better understand what the real setting may have been like.
•
Clues as to What Type of Table
• There are four words we look to in Luke 22:11-12for understanding the room where the Last Supper was held. Do you remember that Jesus told Peter and John to make the
preparations? Well, they were to follow a man with a water pot. When they got to the doorman they were supposed to inquire of him. Jesus said that he would show them a — large,
upstairs, furnished, guest — chamber. How would First Century people understand those four descriptive words? That is what we have tried to do at the Antiquity Center.
• The first word is "large." Think mega. Now, if it was a small room, you'd have a one-sided reclining table. Archaeologists have discovered such like that where food gets put on a little
bench along one wall with a mat in front of it. I have a replica in our little village in the museum.
• If it was a medium sized room, it would be an "L" shaped reclining table where you recline on two sides.
• If the room was mega-sized, then the table was a large, three-sided, reclining table. They would have use the word "triclinium" even though it is based on a Latin word. Today in modern
Israel, a couch in the living room is also called a triclinium. And so, we can deduce that the Last Supper was held at a three-sided reclining table.
• The second word is "upstairs." The reclining table for the Last Supper is in a large room particularly located upstairs. Most downstairs rooms have to have supports to support a heavy
upstairs and a roof, so larger rooms tend to be located upstairs. Jerusalem is a hill and valley city, so the upstairs often had a balcony that looked out over a lower roof. Just lovely!
• The third word is "furnished." The upstairs room is furnished actually with a table with mattresses. This can be translated as "furnished" or a "table with cushions." In all the Gospels the
Apostles are said to be reclining at the table. Modern translations might say "sat at the table" to make it modern, but the word is actually "reclined," and so we know it was at a table with
adjoining mattresses.
• The fourth word is "guest." The guest chamber is called a "kataluma." The guest chamber is a room where a guest both eats and sleeps, meaning there is a table that also happens to be
with one step down from the mattresses. If they hadn't gone to the Garden of Gethsemane they would have slept in the room of the Last Supper. In your house you have some rooms
where you eat and other rooms where you sleep, but every house that is able to afford a guest chamber or guest room in Jesus' time had a place where your guests both eat and sleep.
The Last Supper was clearly in a guest room where guests could both eat and sleep.
• Because the room was a guest chamber, I have a hunch that Judas first brought the guards back to the room of the Last Supper. Remember that he left during the meal? He did probably
because he thought they were going to be sleeping there. When they weren't there, Judas must have known Jesus enough as a person of habit that there was a favorite garden where He
liked to pray. Judas then may have said to the Temple guards something like, "Don't worry. I can take you to another place where you probably can get Jesus when He's away from the
crowds."
• So, in Jesus' day you were supposed to both eat and sleep in the guest room. Archaeologists have actually found over a thousand First Century reclining tables in the triclinium form.
•
In the eleventh part of this series with archaeologist Dr. James Fleming at his Explorations in Antiquity Center, we'll glean some biblical insights by learning where at the Last Supper Jesus,
John and Judas Iscariot would have sat.
