Jesus Faces Pilate
|
||||
|
||||
# Chapter 23
|
||||
1. Then their whole assembly rose up and brought him before Pilate.
|
||||
2. They began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man misleading our nation, opposing payment of taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Messiah, a king."
|
||||
|
||||
3. So Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?"
|
||||
He answered him, *"You say so."*
|
||||
|
||||
4. Pilate then told the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no grounds for charging this man."
|
||||
|
||||
5. But they kept insisting, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee where he started even to here."
|
||||
Jesus Faces Herod Antipas
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
6. When Pilate heard this, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
|
||||
7. Finding that he was under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
|
||||
8. Herod was very glad to see Jesus; for a long time he had wanted to see him because he had heard about him and was hoping to see some miracle performed by him.
|
||||
9. So he kept asking him questions, but Jesus did not answer him.
|
||||
10. The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him.
|
||||
11. Then Herod, with his soldiers, treated him with contempt, mocked him, dressed him in bright clothing, and sent him back to Pilate.
|
||||
12. That very day Herod and Pilate became friends. Previously, they had been enemies.
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus or Barabbas
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
13. Pilate called together the chief priests, the leaders, and the people,
|
||||
14. and said to them, "You have brought me this man as one who misleads the people. But in fact, after examining him in your presence, I have found no grounds to charge this man with those things you accuse him of.
|
||||
15. Neither has Herod, because he sent him back to us. Clearly, he has done nothing to deserve death.
|
||||
16. Therefore, I will have him whipped and then release him."
|
||||
|
||||
18. Then they all cried out together, "Take this man away! Release Barabbas to us!"
|
||||
19. (He had been thrown into prison for a rebellion that had taken place in the city, and for murder.)
|
||||
|
||||
20. Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,
|
||||
21. but they kept shouting, "Crucify! Crucify him!"
|
||||
|
||||
22. A third time he said to them, "Why? What has this man done wrong? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore, I will have him whipped and then release him."
|
||||
|
||||
23. But they kept up the pressure, demanding with loud voices that he be crucified, and their voices won out.
|
||||
24. So Pilate decided to grant their demand
|
||||
25. and released the one they were asking for, who had been thrown into prison for rebellion and murder. But he handed Jesus over to their will.
|
||||
|
||||
The Way to the Cross
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
26. As they led him away, they seized Simon, a Cyrenian, who was coming in from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.
|
||||
27. A large crowd of people followed him, including women who were mourning and lamenting him.
|
||||
28. But turning to them, Jesus said, *"Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and your children.*
|
||||
29. *Look, the days are coming when they will say, 'Blessed are the women without children, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed!'*
|
||||
30. *Then they will begin <b class="quote">to say to the mountains, 'Fall on us!' and to the hills, 'Cover us!' *
|
||||
31. *For if they do these things when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?"*
|
||||
Crucified Between Two Criminals
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
32. Two others--criminals--were also led away to be executed with him.
|
||||
33. When they arrived at the place called The Skull, they crucified him there, along with the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.
|
||||
34. Then Jesus said, *"Father, forgive them, because they do not know what they are doing."* And they divided his clothes and cast lots.
|
||||
|
||||
35. The people stood watching, and even the leaders were scoffing: "He saved others; let him save himself if this is God's Messiah, the Chosen One!"
|
||||
36. The soldiers also mocked him. They came offering him sour wine
|
||||
37. and said, "If you are the king of the Jews, save yourself!"
|
||||
|
||||
38. An inscription was above him: This Is the King of the Jews.
|
||||
|
||||
39. Then one of the criminals hanging there began to yell insults at him: "Aren't you the Messiah? Save yourself and us!"
|
||||
|
||||
40. But the other answered, rebuking him: "Don't you even fear God, since you are undergoing the same punishment?
|
||||
41. We are punished justly, because we're getting back what we deserve for the things we did, but this man has done nothing wrong."
|
||||
42. Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."
|
||||
|
||||
43. And he said to him, *"Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise."*
|
||||
The Death of Jesus
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
44. It was now about noon, and darkness came over the whole land until three,
|
||||
45. because the sun's light failed. The curtain of the sanctuary was split down the middle.
|
||||
46. And Jesus called out with a loud voice, *"Father, <b class="quote">into your hands I entrust my spirit."* Saying this, he breathed his last.
|
||||
|
||||
47. When the centurion saw what happened, he began to glorify God, saying, "This man really was righteous!"
|
||||
48. All the crowds that had gathered for this spectacle, when they saw what had taken place, went home, striking their chests.
|
||||
49. But all who knew him, including the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
The Burial of Jesus
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
50. There was a good and righteous man named Joseph, a member of the Sanhedrin,
|
||||
51. who had not agreed with their plan and action. He was from Arimathea, a Judean town, and was looking forward to the kingdom of God.
|
||||
52. He approached Pilate and asked for Jesus's body.
|
||||
53. Taking it down, he wrapped it in fine linen and placed it in a tomb cut into the rock, where no one had ever been placed.
|
||||
54. It was the preparation day, and the Sabbath was about to begin.
|
||||
55. The women who had come with him from Galilee followed along and observed the tomb and how his body was placed.
|
||||
56. Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes. And they rested on the Sabbath according to the commandment.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1 Then their whole assembly rose up and brought him before Pilate.
|

2 They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man misleading our nation, opposing payment of taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is the Messiah, a king.”
|

3 So Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
|

He answered him, “You say so.”
|

4 Pilate then told the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no grounds for charging this man.”
|

5 But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee where he started even to here.”
