“Silence is power….Jesus stood before the leaders of his race, and owed
them nothing, he held their destiny, they did not hold his, and he would
not answer to their deceit. The high priest was running out of ideas, so in
Matthew’s version of these events, he tells us that his last ditch effort
was to invoke the name of the Lord.

And Jesus finally speaks, not because this wicked man cornered him into
doing it, but in submission and reverence to God the Father. And of course
his response is shocking….Now ‘I am’ would have been enough to convict,
only God can say he is ‘I am’ or ‘Yahweh, The I am who I am,’ but here,
Jesus unashamedly pronounces it as his name…Jesus is silent, and silent,
and silent but when he finally speaks, he basically tells them, ‘You may
judge me now, but I am God and will judge all mankind someday soon.’ And
they all just go nuts.”
