Markos 14:57 In-Context

55 And the Rashei Hakohanim and [the] whole Sanhedrin were seeking edut against Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach in order to have him under the onesh mavet, and they were not finding any.

56 For many gave edut sheker against Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and the eduyot were not in agreement.

57 And some, taking the stand, were giving edut sheker (false testimony) against him:

58 We heard him saying, I will bring churban to this Beis HaMikdash made with human hands, and, after shlosha yamim, another, not made with hands, I will build.

59 So their eduyot were not in agreement.
