- Kapitel 15 -

(Matthew 27:1–2)
1
Early in the morning, the chief priests met together with the elders and scribes and the entire Jewish council. Then they bound Jesus and led him away. They handed him over to Pilate.
2
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “You say so.”
3
The chief priests were presenting many charges against Jesus.
4
Pilate again asked him, “Do you give no answer? See how many charges they are bringing against you!”
5
But Jesus no longer answered Pilate, and that amazed him.

The Crowd Chooses Barabbas

(Matthew 27:15–23; Luke 23:13–25)
6
Now at the time of the feast, Pilate usually released to them one prisoner, a prisoner they requested.
7
There with the rebels in prison, among the murderers held for their part in the rebellion, was a man named Barabbas.
8
The crowd came to Pilate and began to ask him to do for them as he had done in the past.
9
Pilate answered them and said, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10
For he knew that it was because of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him.
11
But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to cry out that Barabbas should be released instead.

Pilate Delivers Up Jesus

(Matthew 27:24–26)
12
Pilate answered them again and said, “What then should I do with the King of the Jews?”
13
They shouted again, “Crucify him!”
14
Pilate said to them, “What wrong has he done?” But they shouted more and more, “Crucify him.”
15
Pilate wanted to satisfy the crowd, so he released Barabbas to them. He scourged Jesus and then handed him over to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus

(Isaiah 50:4–11; Matthew 27:27–31; Luke 22:63–65; John 19:1–15)
16
The soldiers led him inside the courtyard, which is the government headquarters, and they called together the whole cohort of soldiers.
17
They put a purple robe on Jesus, and they twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on him.
18
They began to salute him and say, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19
They struck his head with a reed staff and they spat on him. They bent their knees before him to pretend to worship him.
20
When they had mocked him, they took off of him the purple robe and put his own garments on him, and then led him out to crucify him.

The Crucifixion

(Psalm 22:1–31; Matthew 27:32–44; Luke 23:26–43; John 19:16–27)
21
They forced a passerby who was coming in from the country to carry Jesus’ cross, a man named Simon of Cyrene the father of Alexander and Rufus.
22
The soldiers brought Jesus to the place called Golgotha, which interpreted means, “Place of a Skull”.
23
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not drink it.
24
They crucified him and divided up his garments by casting lots to determine what piece each soldier would take.
25
It was the third hour when they crucified him.
26
On a sign they wrote the charge against him, “The king of the Jews.”
27
With him they crucified two robbers, one on the right of him and one on his left.
28
And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘He was counted with the lawless ones.’
29
Those who passed by insulted him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! You who would destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,
30
save yourself and come down from the cross!”
31
In the same way the chief priests were mocking him with each other, along with the scribes, and said, “He saved others, but he cannot save himself.
32
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.” And those who were crucified with him also taunted him.

The Death of Jesus

(Psalm 22:1–31; Matthew 27:45–56; Luke 23:44–49; John 19:28–30)
33
At the sixth hour, darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34
At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
35
Some of those standing by heard his words and said, “Look, he is calling for Elijah.”
36
Someone ran, put sour wine on a sponge, put it on a reed staff, and gave it to him to drink. The man said, “Let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.”
37
Then Jesus cried out with a loud voice and died.
38
The curtain of the temple was split in two from the top to the bottom.
39
And when the centurion who stood and faced Jesus saw that he was dead in this way, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God.”
40
There were also women who looked on from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary, the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salome.
41
When he was in Galilee they followed him and served him. Many other women also came up with him to Jerusalem.

The Burial of Jesus

(Isaiah 53:9–12; Matthew 27:57–61; Luke 23:50–56; John 19:38–42)
42
When evening had come, because it was the Day of Preparation, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43
Joseph of Arimathea came there. He was a respected member of the council, who was waiting for the kingdom of God. He boldly went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.
44
Pilate was amazed that Jesus was already dead; he called the centurion and asked him if Jesus was dead.
45
When Pilate learned from the centurion that Jesus was dead, he gave the body to Joseph.
46
Joseph had bought a linen cloth. He took him down from the cross, wrapped him in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that had been cut out of a rock. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
47
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses saw the place where Jesus was buried.
(Matthew 27:1–2)
1
Immediately in the morning the chief priests, with the elders, scribes, and the whole council, held a consultation, bound Jesus, carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.
2
Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered, “So you say.”
3
The chief priests accused him of many things.
4
Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!”
5
But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.

The Crowd Chooses Barabbas

(Matthew 27:15–23; Luke 23:13–25)
6
Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whomever they asked of him.
7
There was one called Barabbas, bound with his fellow insurgents, men who in the insurrection had committed murder.
8
The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him to do as he always did for them.
9
Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
10
For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.
11
But the chief priests stirred up the multitude, that he should release Barabbas to them instead.

Pilate Delivers Up Jesus

(Matthew 27:24–26)
12
Pilate again asked them, “What then should I do to him whom you call the King of the Jews?”
13
They cried out again, “Crucify him!”
14
Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, “Crucify him!”
15
Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Barabbas to them, and handed over Jesus, when he had flogged him, to be crucified.

The Soldiers Mock Jesus

(Isaiah 50:4–11; Matthew 27:27–31; Luke 22:63–65; John 19:1–15)
16
The soldiers led him away within the court, which is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort.
17
They clothed him with purple; and weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on him.
18
They began to salute him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19
They struck his head with a reed and spat on him, and bowing their knees, did homage to him.
20
When they had mocked him, they took the purple cloak off him, and put his own garments on him. They led him out to crucify him.

The Crucifixion

(Psalm 22:1–31; Matthew 27:32–44; Luke 23:26–43; John 19:16–27)
21
They compelled one passing by, coming from the country, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to go with them that he might bear his cross.
22
They brought him to the place called Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, “The place of a skull.”
23
They offered him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn’t take it.
24
Crucifying him, they parted his garments among them, casting lots on them, what each should take.
25
It was the third hour (a) when they crucified him.
26
The superscription of his accusation was written over him: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
27
With him they crucified two robbers, one on his right hand, and one on his left.
28
The Scripture was fulfilled which says, “He was counted with transgressors.”(b)
29
Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads and saying, “Ha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,
30
save yourself, and come down from the cross!”
31
Likewise, also the chief priests mocking among themselves with the scribes said, “He saved others. He cant save himself.
32
Let the Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, that we may see and believe him.”(c) Those who were crucified with him also insulted him.

34
At the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, “Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?” which is, being interpreted, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” (f)
35
Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said, “Behold, he is calling Elijah.”
36
One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, “Let him be. Let’s see whether Elijah comes to take him down.”
37
Jesus cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
38
The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom.
39
When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”
40
There were also women watching from afar, among whom were both Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;
41
who, when he was in Galilee, followed him and served him; and many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.
