Trial of the King
Matthew 26:57-59
Matthew 26:57-59
57 And those who had laid hold of Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the
high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. 58 But
Peter followed Him at a distance to the high priest's courtyard. And he
went in and sat with the servants to see the end.59 Now the chief priests,
the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put
Him to death,
Jesus faces Annas
Jesus questioned about the disciples and His doctrine.
13 And they led Him away to Annas first, for he was the fatherin- law of Caiaphas who was high priest that year. 14 Now it
was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that
one man should die for the people.
John 18:13-14
Jesus faces Annas
Jesus questioned about the disciples and His doctrine.
19 The high priest then asked Jesus about His disciples and His
doctrine.20 Jesus answered him, " I spoke openly to the world. I
always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews
always meet, and in secret I have said nothing. 21 Why do you
ask Me? Ask those who have heard Me what I said to them.
Indeed they know what I said."
Jesus faces Annas
Jesus questioned about the disciples and His doctrine.
22 And when He had said these things, one of the officers who
stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, "Do
You answer the high priest like that?"23 Jesus answered him, "
If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why
do you strike Me?"24 Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas
the high priest. John 18:19-24

False Testimony
57 And those who had laid hold of Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas
the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. 58
But Peter followed Him at a distance to the high priest's courtyard.
And he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.59 Now the
chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony
against Jesus to put Him to death,

Christ’s response demanded
59 Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false
testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, 60 but found none.
Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none.
But at last two false witnesses came forward 61 and said, " This
fellow said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God and to build it
in three days. '"

Christ’s response demanded
62 And the high priest arose and said to Him, "Do You answer
nothing? What is it these men testify against You?" 63 But Jesus
kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, "I put
You under oath by the living God:Tell us if You are the Christ, the
Son of God!"64 Jesus said to him, " It is as you said. Nevertheless, I
say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right
hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."

Christ’s response demanded
Then the high priest tore his clothes, saying, "He has spoken
blasphemy! What further need do we have of witnesses? Look, now
you have heard His blasphemy! 66 What do you think?"They
answered and said, "He is deserving of death."67 Then they spat in
His face and beat Him; and others struck Him with the palms of
their hands, 68 saying, " Prophesy to us, Christ! Who is the one who
struck You?“ Matthew 27:60-68
Jesus faces the Sanhedrin
66 As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both chief
priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their
council, saying, 67 " If You are the Christ, tell us."But He said
to them, " If I tell you, you will by no means believe. 68 And if
I also ask you, you will by no means answer Me or let Me go.
69 Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the
power of God."
Jesus faces the Sanhedrin
70 Then they all said, " Are You then the Son of God?"So He
said to them, " You rightly say that I am."71 And they said, "
What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it
ourselves from His own mouth.“
Luke 22:66-71
Jesus and Pilate
11 Now Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked
Him, saying, " Are You the King of the Jews?"Jesus said to him, " It
is as you say." 12 And while He was being accused by the chief
priests and elders, He answered nothing.13 Then Pilate said to Him,
"Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?" 14
But He answered him not one word, so that the governor marveled
greatly.
Matthew 27:11-14
Jesus and Pilate
1 Then the whole multitude of them arose and led Him to
Pilate. 2 And they began to accuse Him, saying, "We found this
fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to pay taxes to
Caesar, saying that He Himself is Christ, a King."3 Then Pilate
asked Him, saying, " Are You the King of the Jews?"He
answered him and said, " It is as you say."4 So Pilate said to the
chief priests and the crowd, "I find no fault in this Man."
Jesus and Pilate
5 But they were the more fierce, saying, "He stirs up the people,
teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this
place.“
Luke 23:1-5
Jesus and Herod
When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked if the Man were a
Galilean. 7 And as soon as he knew that He belonged to Herod's
jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem
at that time. 8 Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly
glad; for he had desired for a long time to see Him, because he
had heard many things about Him, and he hoped to see some
miracle done by Him. 9 Then he questioned Him with many
words, but He answered him nothing.
Jesus and Herod
And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused
Him. 11 Then Herod, with his men of war, treated Him with
contempt and mocked Him, arrayed Him in a gorgeous robe,
and sent Him back to Pilate. 12 That very day Pilate and Herod
became friends with each other, for previously they had been at
enmity with each other.
Luke 23:6-12
Before Pilate & the People for the 2nd time.
15 Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to releasing
to the multitude one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And at that
time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. 17
Therefore, when they had gathered together, Pilate said to them,
" Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus
who is called Christ?" 18 For he knew that they had handed
Him over because of envy.
Before Pilate & the People for the 2nd time.
While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him,
saying, "Have nothing to do with that just Man, for I have
suffered many things today in a dream because of Him."20 But
the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitudes that they
should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 The governor
answered and said to them, " Which of the two do you want me
to release to you?"They said, " Barabbas!"
Before Pilate & the People for the 2nd time.
They said, " Barabbas!"22 Pilate said to them, " What then shall
I do with Jesus who is called Christ?"They all said to him, "Let
Him be crucified!"23 Then the governor said, " Why, what evil
has He done?"But they cried out all the more, saying, "Let Him
be crucified!"
Before Pilate & the People for the 2nd time.
24 When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather
that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands
before the multitude, saying, "I am innocent of the blood of this
just Person. You see to it."25 And all the people answered and
said, "His blood be on us and on our children.“
Matthew 27:15-25
Before Pilate & the People for the 2nd time.
Pilate & Truth
Pilate therefore said to Him, " Are You a king then?"Jesus
answered, " You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I
was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I
should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth
hears My voice."38 Pilate said to Him, " What is truth?" And
when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said
to them, " I find no fault in Him at all. John 18:37-38
Conclusion
1. We know that the trial of Christ had to lead to the death of
Christ, as this was the Father’s will (Isaiah 53).
2. Isn’t it interesting all the things that still took place in order
for an innocent man to die, for the whole world.
