02.A: The Story of the Trial of Jesus and What It Says About the Role or Function of the Trial in Society
Synopsis: This lecture covers the story of the trial of Jesus. The purpose is to begin a detailed discussion of the story of the trial as told through two synoptic Gospels so that students might better see the purpose and function of the trial. Because the lesson learned from the activity is "inductive" in the sense of English composition -- meaning the point comes out last -- much of this stuff is simply setting up the idea.

This segment concludes the segment before. In this segment, the lecture covers why a trial was used to dispose of the "problem" in the story of the trial of Jesus, and demonstrates that the trial's explicit purpose is to take life, liberty and property legitimately. That is precisely what the social ritual is for.
