Jesus Faces the Sanhedrin
53 They 14:53–65 Mt 26:57–68; Lk 22:54,63–65; Jn 18:24 led Jesus away to the high priest, 14:53 Mt 26:3 and all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes 14:53 Mt 2:4 assembled. 14:53 Mk 8:31; 10:33
55 The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin 14:55 Mk 13:9 were looking for testimony against Jesus to put him to death, 14:55 Mt 10:21 but they could not find any.
61 But he kept silent and did not answer. 14:61 Is 53:7; Mt 27:12,14; Mk 15:5; Lk 23:9; Jn 19:9 Again the high priest questioned him, "Are you the Messiah, 14:61 Mt 1:17; Eph 5:2 the Son 14:61 Jn 5:19; Heb 1:2 of the Blessed 14:61 Lk 1:68; Rm 1:25; 9:5; 2Co 1:3; 11:31; Eph 1:3; 1Pt 1:3 One? "
62 "I am," 14:62 Ex 3:14; Ps 45:8; Jn 8:24 said Jesus, "and you will see the Son of Man 14:62 Mk 2:10; Ac 7:56seated at the right hand 14:62 Mt 20:21of Power and coming with the clouds 14:62 Mt 26:64; Mk 13:26of heaven." 14:62 Ps 110:1; Dn 7:13, 14:62 Ps 110:1; Dn 7:13
63 Then the high priest 14:63 Mt 26:3 tore his robes 14:63 Lv 10:6; 21:10; Nm 14:6; Jn 19:23 and said, "Why do we still need witnesses? 14:63 Heb 12:164 You have heard the blasphemy. 14:64 Jn 10:33; Rv 13:6 What is your decision? " They all condemned him as deserving death. 14:64 Mk 10:33
