Pharisees » Often sought to destroy Christ
And although they were trying to arrest Him, they feared the people, because they regarded Jesus as a prophet.
But the Pharisees went out and conspired against Him, discussing how they could destroy Him.
So the chief priests and Pharisees convened a council [of the leaders in Israel], and said, “What are we doing? For this man performs many signs (attesting miracles).
So from that day on they planned together to kill Him.
Now the chief priests and Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he was to report it so that they might arrest Him.
