Jesus before Pilate

(Mat 27:1, 2, 11–14; Luk 23:1–5; Jhn 18:28–38 )

Mar 15:1And immediately in the morning the chief priests, having taken counsel with the elders and scribes and the whole sanhedrim, bound Jesus and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

Mar 15:2

Mar 15:2And Pilate asked him, Art *thou* the King of the Jews? And he answered and said to him, *Thou* sayest.

Mar 15:3

Mar 15:3And the chief priests accused him urgently.

Mar 15:4

Mar 15:4And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? See of how many things they bear witness against thee.

Mar 15:5

Mar 15:5But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marvelled.

(Mat 27:15–26; Luk 23:17–25; Jhn 18:39—19:16 )

Mar 15:8And the crowd crying out began to beg that he would do to them as he had always done.

Mar 15:9

Mar 15:9But Pilate answered them saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?

Mar 15:10

Mar 15:10for he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up through envy.

Mar 15:11

Mar 15:11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd that he might rather release Barabbas to them.

Mar 15:12

Mar 15:12And Pilate answering said to them again, What will ye then that I do to him whom ye call King of the Jews?

Mar 15:13

Mar 15:13And they cried out again, Crucify him.

Mar 15:14

Mar 15:14And Pilate said to them, What evil then has he done? But they cried out the more urgently, Crucify him.

Mar 15:15

Mar 15:15And Pilate, desirous of contenting the crowd, released to them Barabbas, and delivered up Jesus, when he had scourged him, that he might be crucified.

Mar 15:43

Mar 15:43Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable councillor, who also himself was awaiting the kingdom of God, coming, emboldened himself and went in to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus.

Mar 15:47And Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of Joses saw where he was put.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
