¹Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.15 sermons²And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,15 sermons³And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.14 sermons⁴Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.14 sermons⁵Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!14 sermons⁶When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.14 sermons⁷The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.14 sermons⁸When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;14 sermons⁹And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.14 sermons¹⁰Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?14 sermons¹¹Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.24 sermons¹²And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Cesar’s friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Cesar.13 sermons¹³When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.12 sermons¹⁴And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!12 sermons¹⁵But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Cesar.12 sermons¹⁶Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.12 sermons¹⁷And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:12 sermons¹⁸Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.12 sermons¹⁹And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.14 sermons²⁰This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.14 sermons²¹Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.12 sermons²²Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.12 sermons²³Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.14 sermons²⁴They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.15 sermons²⁵Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.15 sermons²⁶When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!17 sermons²⁷Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.15 sermons²⁸After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.18 sermons²⁹Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.14 sermons³⁰When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.53 sermons³¹The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.13 sermons³²Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.14 sermons³³But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:13 sermons³⁴But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.15 sermons³⁵And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.13 sermons³⁶For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.13 sermons³⁷And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.13 sermons³⁸And after this Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.14 sermons³⁹And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.14 sermons⁴⁰Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.14 sermons⁴¹Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.16 sermons⁴²There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews’ preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.14 sermons
