Contextual Overview

1And immediately, in the morning, the chief priests having made a consultation with the elders, and scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin, having bound Jesus, led [Him] away, and delivered [Him] to Pilate; 2and Pilate questioned Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" And He answering said to him, "You say [it]." 3And the chief priests were accusing Him of many things, [but He answered nothing.]4And Pilate again questioned Him, saying, "You do not answer anything? Behold, how many things they testify against You!" 5And Jesus no longer answered anything, so that Pilate wondered. 6And at every celebration he was releasing to them one prisoner, whomsoever they were asking for; 7and there was [one] named Barabbas, bound with those making insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. 8And the multitude having cried out, began to ask for themselves as he was always doing to them, 9and Pilate answered them, saying, "Will you [that] I will release to you the King of the Jews?" 10For he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him up because of envy;

Gill's Notes on the Bible

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,

Matthew 27:12- :.
