Curses: The Jewish Blood Curse

Jews - Jesus Blood Curse

When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands and said, “I am innocent of the blood of this Just person. You see to it.” And all the people answered and said, “His blood be upon us and on our children.” (Matthew 27:24–25)

Since then the Jews have God’s curse upon themselves and their descendants until the end of time.

In The Passion of the Christ Mel Gibson removed a subtitle referencing Matthew 27:25. When asked about this scene, Gibson said, “I wanted it in. My brother said I was wimping out if I didn’t include it. But, man, if I included that in there, they’d be coming after me at my house. They’d come to kill me.”
