He [Jesus] refused to lead any revolutionary movement even among a conquered people and His own people.  At no time did He take a stand in the quarrel between Herod and Pilate, or against the numerous political scandals that were so rampant in Judea.  He never raises his voice against crucifixions, which he knew well as a boy when 3000 were crucified in the town easily visible from Nazareth.  He was indifferent to power, except to affirm that all power comes from God. 

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen
