Mark 15:3 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:3

And the chief priests accused him of many things
As that he was a magician, and a blasphemer, and gave out that he was the Son of God; and that he made himself a king, and even forbad the people to give tribute to Caesar, and moved discord, sedition, and rebellion throughout the land;

but he answered nothing.
This clause is wanting in the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions; but is in the Greek text of the Complutensian edition, and in the Ethiopic version, and agrees with ( Matthew 27:12 ) , (See Gill on Matthew 27:12).

Mark 15:3 In-Context

1 Immediately in the morning the chief Kohanim, with the Zakenim and Sofrim, and the whole council, held a consultation, and bound Yeshua, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate.

2 Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Yehudim?" He answered, "So you say."

3 The chief Kohanim accused him of many things.

4 Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer? See how many things they testify against you!"

5 But Yeshua made no further answer, so Pilate marveled.
