MEDITATION ON THE PASSION AND DEATH
OF THE HOLY FACE OF JESUS
SIXTH DAY
THE HOLY FACE IN THE PRAETORIUM OF PILATE
All kneel
All: Lord, I desire to search again for Your Face; so do not push me far
away from it on account of my sins; do not take Your Holy Spirit away
from me. Let the light of Your Face shine upon me; instruct me in the
way of Your commandments.
All be seated
Leader: Pilate’s Praetorium was for Our Lord the bloody place of two
equally ignominious and cruel tortures, the flagellation and the
crowning with thorns.
I. – SUFFERINGS OF JESUS. – The whips of the executioners who
were scourging Jesus did not spare His sweet and lovable Face; He was
furrowed in all ways, bruised, stained with blood, torn by the rods. Then
seeing that Jesus was condemned to death because He called Himself
“K ing”, the soldiers made this title a subject of bitter derision and
sacrilegious mockeries. They threw a purple mantle over His shoulders,
they put a reed in His hands in the guise of a scepter, and by a
refinement of unheard malice, they made a crown with thorns, which
they intertwined and forced down upon His Forehead with heavy blows.The long, hard, sharp thorns penetrated deeply into the Saviour’s Head,
causing Him atrocious pains, and inundated His Holy Face with trickles
of blood.
II – JESUS’ HUMILIATION. – It was in this pitiable state that
Pilate presented Jesus to the people, hoping to arouse their compassion
and to deliver Him. “Behold the Man” he said. This sight served only to
inflame their fury: “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” they cried out. –

“Shall I crucify your king?” We have no other king but Caesar: we do
not wish Him to rule over us.” The Saviour’s enemies triumph.
Amongst that crowd there were many whom He had loaded with
blessings, who perhaps in secret called themselves His disciples and His
friends; none of them raised a voice to declare themselves as His
disciple and defend Him; no one dared to recognize Him as his king and
his God. This shameful abandonment, joined to other outrages, was a
painful martyrdom for Jesus: “My people, what have I done to you?
Why do you outrage the Face of your Saviour? Why have you crowned
Me with a diadem of thorns?”
III. – HONOUR DUE TO JESUS. – It is not without a profound
mystery that this divine Saviour was thus crowned; He must reign. Thesoldiers, without doubting it, attested Jesus Christ’s royalty as well as
Pilate; without knowing it, they enter into God’s designs, who desires
that His Son may be recognized as king and receive with the title the
homage of all creatures. – Yes, O Jesus, by the diadem which crowns
Your Head, you have acquired the right to reign over my heart; this
diadem of ignominy and pain is a crown of expiation and love. Many
times I have disowned Your royalty in despising Your holy law and
Your divine teachings; many times I have caused Your Blood to flow
upon Your august Face in pressing in the thorns which pierce Your
Forehead by my re-iterated faults; I have run after the joys of this world
and crowned myself with roses; I have aspired to slack merry-making
of an easy and pleasant life with our dreaming that I was the subject of a
king crowned with thorns.
No, O good Master, I do not wish that You may suffer more thethorns of my iniquities; I desire to please you by my homage, to adorn
You with the flowers of my virtues, and cause You to triumph in me by
generous love which may be worthy of You.
ACT OF OFFERING – O Jesus, my king and my God, here is my
soul with its thoughts, my heart with its affections, my will with its

aspirations! Here is my spirit and my body; I place myself entirely
under Your rule; reign over me forever.
VIRTUE TO PRACTICE – By mortification make all desires and
unlawful tendencies to die in you, those which might offend Our Lord
and in some manner to renew His sufferings.
SPIRITUAL BOUQUET – Should a subject be sensual and
fastidious under a Head crowned with thorns?
All kneel
All: I have prayed before your Face with my whole Heart (Psalm118:58): have pity on me according to your promise.
Let the light of Your Face shine upon me in Your mercy, Lord, I shall
not be confounded, because I have called upon You. All powerful and
merciful God, grant, we beg of You, that in venerating the Face of Your
Christ, disfigured in His Passion because of our sins, we may merit to
contemplate It eternally, in the light of celestial glory, through the same
Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

(Himig: AtingPangarap)
Ang banal na Mukha ay ating itanghal
Sa puso ng lahat na kanyang nilalang.
Siya’y ating pag-asa, sandigan sa dusa
Laging naghihintay at nag-aanyaya.
Kung ikaw ay dudulog sa Kanya tuwina
Buhay mo ay sasaya, di ka magdurusa.
Kay ganda ng buhay, huwag nating sayangin
Di lang natin alam may nagmamahal din.
Ang banal Niyang Mukha’y itanghal natin
Sapagkat ito’y daan ng kapayapaan.
Sinumang may nais sa Kanya’y sumunod
Dalhin mo ang krus at sundan si Jesus.
