when the morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people held a counsel against Jesus, to put him to death,

And they were filled full of madness, and communed one with another, what they might do to Jesus.

And he taught daily in the temple. The high priests and the scribes and the chief of the people, went about to destroy him;

Then gathered the high priests and the Pharisees a council and said, "What do we? This man doeth many miracles. If we let him escape thus, all men will believe on him. And the Romans shall come and take away our country and the people." And one of them named Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year, said unto them, "Ye perceive nothing at all: read more.
nor yet consider that it is expedient for us, that one man die for the people, and not that all the people perish." This spake he not of himself: but being high priest that same year, prophesied he that Jesus should die for the people, and not for the people only: but that he should gather together in one the children of God which were scattered abroad. From that day forth they held a counsel together for to put him to death. Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews: but went his way thence unto a country nigh to a wilderness into a city called Ephraim, and there haunted with his disciples.


Acertain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. It was that Mary which anointed Jesus with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick, and his sisters sent unto him, saying, "Lord behold, he whom thou lovest is sick." read more.
When Jesus that heard he said, "This infirmity is not unto death: But for the laud of God, that the son of God might be praised by the reason of it." Jesus loved Martha and her sister, and Lazarus. After he heard that he was sick, then abode he two days still in the same place where he was. Then after that said he to his disciples, "Let us go into Jewry again." His disciples said unto him, "Master, the Jews lately sought means to stone thee, and wilt thou go thither again?" Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walk in the day he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world. But if a man walk in the night he stumbleth, because there is no light in him." This said he. And after that he said unto them, "Our friend Lazarus sleepeth, but I go to wake him out of sleep." Then said his disciples, "Lord, if he sleep, then shall he do well enough." Howbeit, Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of the natural sleep. Then said Jesus unto them, plainly, "Lazarus is dead, and I am glad for your sakes, that I was not there, because ye may believe. Nevertheless let us go unto him." Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto the disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with him." Then went Jesus, and found that he had lain in his grave four days already. Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off; And many of the Jews were come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them over their brother. Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him. But Mary sat still in the house. Then said Martha unto Jesus, "Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not been dead: but nevertheless, I know that whatsoever thou askest of God, God will give it thee." Jesus said unto her, "Thy brother shall rise again." Martha said unto him, I know well, that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. Jesus said unto her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He that believeth on me; Yea though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth, and believeth on me, shall never die. Believest thou this?" She said unto him, "Yea Lord: I believe that thou art Christ, the son of God, which should come into the world." And as soon as she had so said she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, "The master is come and calleth for thee." And she, as soon as she heard that, arose quickly, and came unto him. Jesus was not yet come into the town: but was in the place where Martha met him. The Jews then, which were with her in the house and comforted her, when they saw Mary that she rose up hastily, and went out: followed her, saying, "She goeth unto the grave, to weep there." Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, "Lord if thou hadst been here, my brother had not been dead." When Jesus saw her weep, and the Jews also weep, which came with her; He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled in himself, and said, "Where have ye laid him?" They said unto him, "Lord, come and see." And Jesus wept. Then said the Jews, "Behold how he loved him." And some of them said, "Could not he which opened the eyes of the blind, have made also, that this man should not have died?" Jesus again groaned in himself and came to the grave: it was a cave, and a stone laid on it. And Jesus said, "Take ye away the stone." Martha, the sister of him that was dead, said unto him, "Lord by this time he stinketh. For he hath been dead four days." Jesus said unto her, "Said I not unto thee, that if thou didst believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?" Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lift up his eyes and said, "father I thank thee, because that thou hast heard me; I know that thou hearest me always: but because of the people that stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me." And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus come forth." And he that was dead, came forth bound hand and foot, with grave bonds after the manner as they were wont to bind their dead withal. And his face was bound with a napkin. Jesus said unto them, "Loose him, and let him go." Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what Jesus had done. Then gathered the high priests and the Pharisees a council and said, "What do we? This man doeth many miracles. If we let him escape thus, all men will believe on him. And the Romans shall come and take away our country and the people." And one of them named Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year, said unto them, "Ye perceive nothing at all: nor yet consider that it is expedient for us, that one man die for the people, and not that all the people perish."

And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went away unto the high priests, to betray him unto them. When they heard that, they were glad, and promised that they would give him money. And he sought, how he might conveniently betray him.

While he yet spake, Lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, which were sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

Then took they him, and led him, and brought him to the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

Then gathered the high priests and the Pharisees a council and said, "What do we? This man doeth many miracles.

Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, and said, "What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you?" And they appointed unto him thirty pieces of silver.

And anon in the dawning held the high priests a council with the elders and the scribes; And also the whole congregation, and bound Jesus and led him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

Then assembled together the chief priests and the scribes and the elders of the people into the palace of the high priest, called Caiaphas: and held a counsel, how they might take Jesus by subtlety, and kill him. But they said, "Not on the holy day, lest any uproar arise among the people."

And behold, one of them which were with Jesus, stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest, and smote off his ear.

And one of them smote a servant of him which was the highest priest of all, and smote off his right ear.

And immediately, while he yet spake, came Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great number of people with swords and staves from the high priests and scribes and elders. And he that betrayed him had given them a general token, saying, "Whosoever I do kiss, he it is, take him, and lead him away warily." And as soon as he was come, he went straightway to him, and said unto him, "Master, master," and kissed him. read more.
And they laid their hands on him, and took him. And one of them that stood by drew out a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

And they led Jesus away to the highest priest of all, and to him came all the high priests and the elders, and the scribes. And Peter followed him a great way off, even into the palace of the high priest, and he was there and sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire. And the high priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus, to put him to death; And they found none. read more.
Yet many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together. And there arose certain and brought false witness against him, saying, "We heard him say, 'I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another, made without hands.'" But their witness agreed not together. And the highest priest stood up amongst them all, and asked Jesus saying, "Answerest thou nothing? How is it that these bear witness against thee?" And he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the highest priest asked him, and said unto him, "Art thou the Christ, the son of the blessed?" And Jesus said, "I am. And ye shall see the son of man sit on the righthand of power, and come in the clouds of heaven." Then the highest priest rent his clothes and said, "What need we any further of witness? Ye have heard the blasphemy, what think ye?" And they all gave sentence that he was worthy of death. And some began to spit at him, and to cover his face, and to beat him with their fists, and to say unto him, "Aread unto us." And the servants buffeted him on the face. And Peter was beneath in the palace, and there came one of the wenches of the highest priest;

and the high priests, and scribes sought how to kill him, but they feared the people. Then entered Satan into Judas, whose surname was Iscariot, which was of the number of the twelve: and he went his way, and communed with the high priests and officers, how he might betray him to them. read more.
And they were glad: and promised to give him money. And he consented, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them, when the people were away.

And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people, and the high priests and scribes, came together, and led him into their council saying, "Art thou very Christ? Tell us." And he said unto them, "If I shall tell you, ye will not believe. And if also I ask you, ye will not answer me, or let me go. read more.
Hereafter shall the son of man sit on the righthand of the power of God." Then said they all, "Art thou then the son of God?" He said to them, "Ye say that I am." Then said they, "What need we any further witness? We ourselves have heard of his own mouth."

And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate. And they began to accuse him saying, "We have found this fellow, perverting the people and forbidding to pay tribute to Caesar: and saying that he is Christ, a King."

They cried, "Away with him, away with him; Crucify him." Pilate said unto them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The high priests answered, "We have no King but Caesar." Then delivered he him unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
