Mark 15:1 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:1

And straightway in the morning
As soon as it was break of day, or daylight appeared:

the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and Scribes;
who were the principal men in the sanhedrim:

and the whole council;
which, on this extraordinary occasion, was convened; the result of which was, to bind Jesus, and deliver him up to the Roman governor, to be put to death by him, as a seditious person, and an enemy to Caesar, and accordingly they did so:

and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
The Syriac and Persic versions add, "the governor"; (See Gill on Matthew 27:1), (See Gill on Matthew 27:2).

Mark 15:1 In-Context

1 As soon as it was morning, the head cohanim held a council meeting with the elders, the Torah-teachers and the whole Sanhedrin. Then they put Yeshua in chains, led him away and handed him over to Pilate.

2 Pilate put this question to him: "Are you the King of the Jews?" He answered him, "The words are yours."

3 The head cohanim too made accusations against him,

4 and Pilate again inquired of him, "Aren't you going to answer? Look how many charges they are making against you!"

5 But Yeshua made no further response, to Pilate's amazement.
