19. Thou hast known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor. It is no novelty or secret, it has been long continued: thou, O God,
hast seen it; and for thee to see the innocent suffer is an assurance of help.
Here are three words piled up to express the Redeemer’s keen sense of the
contempt poured upon him. Mine adversaries are all before thee. Judas
and his treachery; Herod and his cunning; Caiaphas and his counsel; Pilate and
his vacillation; Jews, priests, people, rulers, all, thou seest and wilt judge.
