Psychological interpretation

John 18:39-40 read psychologically: at the Passover the crowd demands Barabbas (son of the father; the robber: one's present concept of self, the state of desire that robs one of what one could be) and Pilate, blind justice like Isaac, must release him and give Jesus (the saviour, the desired state) to be crucified on Golgotha. One is crowd, judge and both sons: release the old concept, fix (crucify) the new, and it rises unaided.

What robs me now of the man that I want to be?—the facts of life. My bank balance as it comes from the bank tells me I am not really the man that I’m saying I am financially. All right, so that’s a robber.
