Matthew:27:11-36
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Jesus stood (
5627 )
before the governor :
and the governor asked (
5656 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Art (
5748 )
thou the King of the Jews ?
And Jesus said (
5713 )
unto him ,
Thou sayest (
5719 ).
*
And when he was accused (
5745 )
of the chief priests and elders ,
he answered (
5662 )
nothing .
*
Then said (
5719 )
Pilate unto him ,
Hearest thou (
5719 )
not how many things they witness against (
5719 )
thee ?
*
And he answered (
5662 )
him to never a word ;
insomuch that the governor marvelled (
5721 )
greatly .
*
Now at that feast the governor was wont (
5715 )
to release (
5721 )
unto the people a prisoner ,
whom they would (
5707 ).
*
And they had (
5707 )
then a notable prisoner ,
called (
5746 )
Barabbas .
*
Therefore when they were gathered together (
5772 ),
Pilate said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Whom will ye (
5719 )
that I release (
5661 )
unto you ?
Barabbas ,
or Jesus which is called (
5746 )
Christ ?
*
For he knew (
5715 )
that for envy they had delivered (
5656 )
him .
*
When he was set down (
5740 )
on the judgment seat ,
his wife sent (
5656 )
unto him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Have thou nothing to do with that just man :
for I have suffered (
5627 )
many things this day in a dream because of him .
*
But the chief priests and elders persuaded (
5656 )
the multitude that they should ask (
5672 )
Barabbas ,
and destroy (
5661 )
Jesus .
*
The governor answered (
5679 )
and said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Whether of the twain will ye (
5719 )
that I release (
5661 )
unto you ?
They said (
5627 ),
Barabbas .
*
Pilate saith (
5719 )
unto them ,
What shall I do (
5692 )
then with Jesus which is called (
5746 )
Christ ?
They all say (
5719 )
unto him ,
Let him be crucified (
5682 ).
*
And the governor said (
5713 ),
Why ,
what evil hath he done (
5656 )?
But they cried out (
5707 )
the more ,
saying (
5723 ),
Let him be crucified (
5682 ).
*
When Pilate saw (
5631 )
that he could prevail (
5719 )
nothing ,
but that rather a tumult was made (
5736 ),
he took (
5631 )
water ,
and washed (
5668 )
his hands before the multitude ,
saying (
5723 ),
I am (
5748 )
innocent of the blood of this just person :
see (
5695 )
ye to it .
*
Then answered (
5679 )
all the people ,
and said (
5627 ),
His blood be on us ,
and on our children .
*
Then released he (
5656 )
Barabbas unto them :
and when he had scourged (
5660 )
Jesus ,
he delivered (
5656 )
him to be crucified (
5686 ).
*
Then the soldiers of the governor took (
5631 )
Jesus into the common hall ,
and gathered (
5627 )
unto him the whole band of soldiers .
*
And they stripped (
5660 )
him ,
and put on (
5656 )
him a scarlet robe .
*
And when they had platted (
5660 )
a crown of thorns ,
they put (
5656 )
it upon his head ,
and a reed in his right hand :
and they bowed the knee (
5660 )
before him ,
and mocked (
5707 )
him ,
saying (
5723 ),
Hail (
5720 ),
King of the Jews !
*
And they spit (
5660 )
upon him ,
and took (
5627 )
the reed ,
and smote (
5707 )
him on the head .
*
And after that they had mocked (
5656 )
him ,
they took the robe off (
5656 )
from him ,
and put his own raiment on (
5656 )
him ,
and led him away (
5627 )
to crucify (
5658 )
him .
*
And as they came out (
5740 ),
they found (
5627 )
a man of Cyrene ,
Simon by name :
him they compelled (
5656 )
to bear (
5661 )
his cross .
*
And when they were come (
5631 )
unto a place called (
5746 )
Golgotha ,
that is (
5748 )
to say (
5746 ),
a place of a skull ,
*
They gave (
5656 )
him vinegar to drink (
5629 )
mingled (
5772 )
with gall :
and when he had tasted (
5666 )
thereof ,
he would (
5707 )
not drink (
5629 ).
*
And they crucified (
5660 )
him ,
and parted (
5668 )
his garments ,
casting (
5723 )
lots :
that it might be fulfilled (
5686 )
which was spoken (
5685 )
by the prophet ,
They parted (
5668 )
my garments among them ,
and upon my vesture did they cast (
5627 )
lots .
*
And sitting down (
5740 )
they watched (
5707 )
him there ;
