<p>22:70 <i>And they all said: Are you then the Son of God? And he said to them: You say that I am</i>- <i>&quot;</i>You say...&quot; shows how the Lord sought to elicit confessions from men in their own words.&nbsp;The Lord&rsquo;s sensitivity is revealed in how He comments upon the Jews&rsquo; question: &ldquo;Art thou then the Son of God?&rdquo;. He replies: &ldquo;Ye say it because I am&rdquo; (Lk. 22:70 RVmg.). The Lord perceived that men ask a question like that because subconsciously, they perceive the truth of the matter, and in their conscience, they already know the answer to their question. Perhaps for this reason He simply ceased answering their questions as the trial went on (Lk. 23:9). He realized that the questions they asked were actually revealing the answers which were already written in their consciences. For a man of this psychological insight to have lived and died amidst and for such a primitive rabble is indeed amazing.</p>
