1. Right at daybreak, the ruling kohanim held a meeting to consult with the elders and Torah scholars and the whole Sanhedrin. They tied up Yeshua, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.
2. Pilate interrogated Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” Yeshua answers him, “As you say.”
3. The ruling kohanim began to accuse Him of many things.
4. Again, Pilate asked Him, “Aren’t you going to answer? Look how many charges they’re bringing against You!”
5. But Yeshua did not answer, so Pilate was amazed.
6. Now during the feast, he used to release to them one prisoner, anyone they were asking for.
