Now Jesus stood before the Governor, and the Governor questioned him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked.

But he made no answer, not even to one charge; insomuch that the Governor was greatly astonished. Now it was the Governor's custom, during the Passover, to release to the people any one prisoner whom they selected. At that time they had a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.

And while he was seated upon the judgment-seat, his wife had sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered many things today, in a dream, because of him."

What one voice they shouted, "Let him be crucified!" But Pilate said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they kept shouting the more fiercely, "Let him be crucified!"

"I am innocent of the blood of this man; you must answer for it." All the people answered, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he scourged, and delivered to be crucified.

Then all his disciples forsook him and fled; but those who had apprehended Jesus led him away to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had assembled. Now Peter was following him, afar off, as far as the courtyard of the high priest; and when he got in, he was sitting with the officers, to see the end. And the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were trying to get false evidence against Jesus, in order that they might have him executed; read more.
but they found none, although many false witnesses came forward. However, at last two came forward who said, "This fellow declared, 'I can destroy the Temple of God and build it in three days.'" Rising to his feet the high priest asked Jesus. "Do you make no answer? What is it that these are testifying against you?"
