'High' in the Bible

He called together all the high priests and scribes of the people and asked them where the Messiah was to be born.

Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root it became dry and dead.

From that time on, Jesus began to show his disciples that he would have to go to Jerusalem and suffer a great deal because of the elders, the high priests, and the scribes. Then he would be killed, but on the third day he would be raised.

And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

"See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death.

But Jesus called them over and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles dominate them, and the men of high position exercise power over them.

But when the high priests and the scribes saw the amazing things that he had done and the children shouting in the Temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they became furious

Then Jesus went into the Temple. While he was teaching, the high priests and the elders of the people came to him and asked, "By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?"

When the high priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they knew that he was talking about them.

And whoever makes himself high will be made low, and whoever makes himself low will be made high.

Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

Surely this perfume could've been sold for a high price and the money given to the destitute."

Then one of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the high priests

Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived. A large crowd armed with swords and clubs was with him. They were from the high priests and elders of 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's, and smote off his ear.

And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.

Meanwhile, the high priests and the whole Council were looking for false testimony against Jesus in order to have him put to death.

And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.

Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.

When morning came, all the high priests and elders of the people conspired against Jesus to put him to death.

Then Judas, who had betrayed him, regretted what had happened when he saw that Jesus was condemned. He brought the 30 pieces of silver back to the high priests and elders,

The high priests picked up the pieces of silver and said, "It is not lawful to put this into the Temple treasury, because it is blood money."

While Jesus was being accused by the high priests and elders, he made no reply.

But the high priests and elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to demand that Jesus be put to death.

In the same way the high priests, along with the scribes and elders, were also making fun of him. They kept saying,

The following day (that is, after the Day of Preparation), the high priests and Pharisees gathered before Pilate

While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and told the high priests everything that had happened.
