Yeshua is interrogated by the Jewish leaders

Mark 14:53–65

Luke 22:54–71

Yhn 18:13–24

26:57 Yeshua is interrogated by the Jewish leaders

(Mark 14:53-65, Luke 22:54-55, Yhn 18:13-14)

57Then the ones who had arrested Yeshua led him away to Caiaphas the chief priest, where the religious teachers and the local elders had gathered together. 58Peter followed along from a distance, and went inside to the chief priest’s courtyard, where he sat with the attendants and waited to see what would happen. 59The chief priests and the whole council tried to find people who would bring false accusations against Yeshua so they could sentence him to death, 60but 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.’ ”

62So the chief priest stood and asked Yeshua, “Don’t you have any respond to what these men are accusing you of?” 63But 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. 66What do you all think now?

“He should get the death penalty,” they answered.

67[ref]Then they spat in Yeshua’s face and they beat him and slapped him 68saying, “Prophesy to us, messiah. Who was it that just slapped you?”


14:53 The mock trial where Yeshua is sentenced to death

(Yhn 18:13-14, Mat. 26:57-68, Luke 22:54-55)

53The guards led Yeshua away to the chief priest’s residence, and all the chief priests and the elders and the religious teachers gathered there also. 54Peter followed along from a distance and went in as far as the courtyard of the residence where he joined the servants who were sitting around the fire keeping warm. 55Inside, 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. 56Several were making up charges against him, but none of the accusers’ stories agreed with each other.

57Eventually 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.” 59But even then, they couldn’t get their accusations to align with each other.

60Nevertheless 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.”

61But 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.”

63Then 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.

65Then various people started spitting on him, and blindfolding him and beating him saying, “Ha, tell us who that was!” Even the servants joined in to slap him.


22:54 Peter denies knowing Yeshua

(Yhn 18:12-18, Mark 14:53-54, Mat. 26:57-58)

54Then after capturing Yeshua, they led him along to the chief priest’s house, but Peter followed them from a distance. 55The staff at the chief priest’s place had lit a fire to sit around in the middle of the courtyard, and Peter slipped in with them. 56Then a servant girl noticed him in the light, and peering at him she said, “This man was with him as well.”

57But Peter disowned him, saying, “Woman, I don’t even know him.”

58A little while later, someone else noticed him and said, “You’re also one of them!”

“Man, I’m not!” Peter retorted.

59About an hour later, someone else insisted on saying, “This fellow was definitely with him because he’s also a Galilean!”

60“Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Peter responded, and while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.

61Just then the master turned and looked at Peter, and he suddenly remembered what the master had said, “Before the rooster crows today, three times you’ll deny even knowing me. 62Then Peter went out of the courtyard and cried like a baby.

22:62 Yeshua is mocked and beaten

(Mark 14:65, Mat. 26:67-68)

63Meanwhile the officers who were holding Yeshua started mocking him and beating him. 64They blindfolded him and then challenged him, “Prophesy and tell us who just slapped you!” 65as well as saying many other things to insult him.

22:65 Yeshua’s brief interrogation by the Jewish council

(Yhn 18:19-24, Mark 14:55-64, Mat. 26:59-66)

66As 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 67who demanded, “If you’re the messiah, tell us so.”

Even if I told you,” he replied, “you certainly wouldn’t believe me, 68and if I asked you all anything, you certainly wouldn’t answer. 69But from now on, humanity’s child will be sitting in the seat of power at God’s right hand.

70So 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.”

13First they took him to Annas, the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was the chief priest that year. 14[ref](Caiaphas was the one who had suggested that it was better for the people and the nation if one man should die for all of them.)

18:14 Peter denies being a Yeshua-follower

(Mat. 26:59-66, Mark 14:55-64, Luke 22:66-71)

15Now Simon Peter and another intern were following Yeshua, and since that other intern was known to the chief priest, he was allowed to enter following Yeshua into the courtyard of the chief priest 16while Peter waited outside at the door. Then the other intern who was known to the chief priest went back and spoke to the woman at the door and brought Peter in too. 17But the servant girl who was watching the door challenged Peter, “Aren’t you also one of the followers of that man?”

“No, I’m not,” he responded.

18Meanwhile the servants and attendants had made a fire and were standing around it warming themselves, and Peter also went and stood there to warm himself.

18:18 Annas tries to interrogate Yeshua

(Mat. 26:59-66, Mark 14:69-72, Luke 22:58-62)

19Now the chief priest interrogated Yeshua about his followers and about his teaching. 20Yeshua 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 21so why are you asking me? Ask the people who heard what I told them—they’re the ones who know what I said.”

22When 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?”

23But Yeshua responded, “If I said anything wrong, tell me my error. But if it was true, why are you hitting me?”

24So Annas sent him away, still tied up, to Caiaphas the chief priest.
