22:66 Yeshua’s brief interrogation by the Jewish council
66 As the daylight came, the council of local elders including both the chief priests and the religious teachers, gathered together and Yeshua was led in to the council 67 who demanded, “If you’re the messiah, tell us so.”
“Even if I told you,” he replied, “you certainly wouldn’t believe me, 68 and if I asked you all anything, you certainly wouldn’t answer. 69 But from now on, humanity’s child will be sitting in the seat of power at God’s right hand.”
70 “So then, you are God’s son!” they all reacted.
“Well, you’re all saying that I am,” he said.
71 “Why would we need any more witnesses than this?” they asked, “because we heard it ourselves straight out of his mouth.”
18:19 Annas tries to interrogate Yeshua
19 Now the chief priest interrogated Yeshua about his followers and about his teaching. 20 Yeshua answered him, “I’ve spoken openly to the people. I always taught in the meeting halls and in the temple where Jewish people meet. I didn’t speak in secret 21 so why are you asking me? Ask the people who heard what I told them—they’re the ones who know what I said.”
22 When he said that, one of the attendants standing there slapped Yeshua on the face and said, “You think you can answer the chief priest like that?”
23 But Yeshua responded, “If I said anything wrong, tell me my error. But if it was true, why are you hitting me?”
24 So Annas sent him away, still tied up, to Caiaphas the chief priest.
55 Inside, the chief priests and all the council were trying to establish a case against Yeshua so he could be sentenced to death, but they weren’t coming up with anything. 56 Several were making up charges against him, but none of the accusers’ stories agreed with each other.
57 Eventually some of them stood up and offered this false charge: 58 [ref]“We heard him say that he would demolish this temple made by many labourers, and within three days he’d build another one without any helpers.” 59 But even then, they couldn’t get their accusations to align with each other.
60 Nevertheless the chief priest in the middle of the council stood up and asked Yeshua, “Aren’t you going to defend yourself? These men are accusing you of these things.”
61 But Yeshua didn’t say anything. So the chief priest asked again, “Is it true that you’re the chosen one that God promised to send—the son of the blessed God?”
62 [ref]Yeshua replied, “I am. And you will all see humanity’s child sitting in the honoured position by the powerful God and coming through the clouds in the sky.”
63 Then the chief priest tore his own robe to show his disgust and shouted, “We certainly don’t need any more witnesses now! 64 [ref]You yourselves all heard him insult God. What sentence does that deserve?”
So the leaders there agreed that Yeshua needed to be sentenced to death.
59 The chief priests and the whole council tried to find people who would bring false accusations against Yeshua so they could sentence him to death, 60 but even though many people wanted to try, they couldn’t find anyone suitable. Eventually, two others came up 61 [ref]and said, “We heard this man say, ‘I’m able to demolish God’s temple and rebuild it in three days.’ ”
62 So the chief priest stood and asked Yeshua, “Don’t you have any respond to what these men are accusing you of?” 63 But Yeshua stayed silent, so then the chief priest asked him, “I order you by the living God to tell us if you’re the messiah, the son of God.”
64 [ref]“You said it,” Yeshua responded. “However, I can tell you all that from now on, you’ll see humanity’s child sitting beside God in the position of power and coming in the clouds in the sky.”
65 [ref]Then the chief priest tore his robes and said, “He belittled God. Why would we need more witnesses after that? See here, you all heard him slander God. 66 What do you all think now?
“He should get the death penalty,” they answered.
