Mark 15:1-9

Jesus before Pilate

1 ¹Early in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole ²Council, immediately held a consultation; and binding Jesus, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pilate.

2 ³Pilate questioned Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" And He answered him, "It is as you say."

3 The chief priests began to accuse Him harshly.

4 Then Pilate questioned Him again, saying, "Do You not answer? See how many charges they bring against You!"

5 But Jesus ⁴made no * further answer; so Pilate was amazed.

6 ⁵Now at the feast he used to release for them any one prisoner whom they requested.

7 The man named Barabbas had been imprisoned with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the insurrection.

8 The crowd went up and began asking him to do as he had been accustomed to do for them.

9 Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"
