Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

SOTN SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 22:66–23:25: Leaders put Jesus on trial and condemned him to die

Luke indicates that Jesus had several trials. These trials can also be considered to be several parts of the same trial. Luke recorded the details of four of these trials. The chart here lists them according to who was leading at each trial:

22:66–71	the Jewish council
23:1–5	Pilate
23:6–12	Herod
23:13–25	Pilate again

In all of Jesus’ trials, there was no one who could prove that Jesus had broken any law of God or man. However, even though he had not done anything wrong, the Roman governor Pilate sentenced him to die on a cross.

The Notes suggest a section heading for each of the trials in the chart. However, you may decide to have one heading for Section Group 22:66–23:25 like the one suggested in the Section Group box above. Another example of a heading for this section group is:

The leaders tried and condemned Jesus

23:13a

Then Pilate called together

¶ Then Pilate sent messages to call
¶ After Herod’s men brought Jesus to Pilate, Pilate sent people to tell

23:13b

the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

the leading/ruling priests, the elders, and other Jewish people.
the leaders among the priests, the other council members, and other Jewish people to come to him.

23:13a–c

This verse begins after Herod’s men brought Jesus back to Pilate. It tells what Pilate did next in Jesus’ trial after Herod sent Jesus back to him. Verse 12 is background information. In many languages there is a special way to continue a story after this type of information. Continue the story in a natural way in your language. Some ways to connect this verse to the preceding section are:

Then (GW)

After Herod’s men arrived with Jesus

So when Jesus was returned to Pilate

Then Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people: The phrase called together indicates here that Pilate sent messengers to tell people to come to him. The chief priests and the rulers were members of the council who first brought Jesus to Pilate. They also accused Jesus to Herod. These accusers may have been nearby waiting until Pilate was ready to continue with Jesus’ trial or they may have gone to their homes for a while. The people may have been part of the crowd in 23:4.

Some other ways to translate the verse are:

Pilate sent messengers to tell the chief priests, the rulers, and the people to come.

Pilate gave orders to summon the chief priests, rulers, and people.

the chief priests: This term occurred in 23:4.

the rulers: The phrase the rulers probably refers to the same group as the phrase “the elders” in 19:47. You may be able to translate it in the same way here. These men were members of the Jewish council who were not priests. Since the priests were also rulers (leaders), it may be necessary to indicate that here. For example:

and other leaders

See the note at 19:47b–d for more information.

the people: The text does not specify exactly who the phrase the people refers to. They were probably Jewish people who lived in Jerusalem. The context implies that they were supporters of the chief priests and other council members. They may have been people from the crowd that had gathered in 23:4.

The word the does not necessarily imply here that the people refers back to a particular group of people. It may imply that Pilate considered them to be representatives of ordinary Jewish people. Some ways to translate this phrase are:

other people

other Jewish people

Jesus’ Arrest, Trial, Crucifixion, and Burial

Matthew 26-27; Mark 14-15; Luke 22-23; John 13-19

On the Thursday before he was crucified, Jesus had arranged to share the Passover meal with his disciples in an upper room, traditionally thought to be located in the Essene Quarter of Jerusalem. After they finished the meal, they went to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus often met with his disciples. There Judas Iscariot, one of Jesus’ own disciples, betrayed him to soldiers sent from the High Priest, and they took Jesus to the High Priest’s residence. In the morning the leading priests and teachers of the law put Jesus on trial and found him guilty of blasphemy. The council sent Jesus to stand trial for treason before the Roman governor Pontius Pilate, who resided at the Praetorium while in Jerusalem. The Praetorium was likely located at the former residence of Herod the Great, who had died over 30 years earlier. When Pilate learned that Jesus was from Galilee, he sent him to Herod Antipas, who had jurisdiction over Galilee. But when Jesus gave no answer to Herod’s many questions, Herod and his soldiers sent him back to Pilate, who conceded to the people’s demands that Jesus be crucified. Jesus was forced to carry his cross out of the city gate to Golgotha, meaning Skull Hill, referring to what may have been a small unquarried hill in the middle of an old quarry just outside the gate. After Jesus was unable to carry his cross any further, a man named Simon from Cyrene was forced to carry it for him. There at Golgotha they crucified Jesus. After Jesus died, his body was hurriedly taken down before nightfall and placed in a newly cut, rock tomb owned by Joseph of Arimathea, a member of the Jewish high council. This tomb was likely located at the perimeter of the old quarry.
