5 Mas Jesus nada mais respondeu, de maneira que Pilatos se admirava.

Marcos 15:5 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:5

But Jesus yet answered nothing
He still continued silent, and made no defence for himself, which the governor was willing to give him an opportunity to make, and, as his friend, urged him to it:

so that Pilate marvelled;
what should be the meaning of his silence, when he was so capable of defending himself, and was so innocent, as Pilate himself was ready to believe; and yet the things he was charged with were of, the highest nature, and by persons of the greatest figure in the nation; so that his silence exposed him to a great deal of danger, which Pilate thought might easily be avoided by answering for himself; (See Gill on Matthew 27:14).

Marcos 15:5 In-Context

3 e os principais dos sacerdotes o acusavam de muitas coisas.

4 Tornou Pilatos a interrogá-lo, dizendo: Não respondes nada? Vê quantas acusações te fazem.

5 Mas Jesus nada mais respondeu, de maneira que Pilatos se admirava.

6 Ora, por ocasião da festa costumava soltar-lhes um preso qualquer que eles pedissem.

7 E havia um, chamado Barrabás, preso com outros sediciosos, os quais num motim haviam cometido um homicídio.
