Mt Chapter 27 Verses 1-66
27:1
|
Now
|
when
|
it
|
was
|
morning,
|
all
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
and
|
those
|
in
|
authority
|
took
|
thought
|
together
|
with
|
the
|
purpose
|
of
|
putting
|
Jesus
|
to
|
death.
27:2
|
And
|
they
|
put
|
cords
|
on
|
him
|
and
|
took
|
him
|
away,
|
and
|
gave
|
him
|
up to
Pilate,
|
the
|
ruler.
27:3
|
Then
Judas,
|
who
|
was
|
false
|
to
|
him,
|
seeing
|
that
|
he
|
was
to
|
be
|
put
|
to
|
death,
|
in
|
his
|
regret
|
took
|
back
|
the
|
thirty
|
bits
|
of
|
silver
|
to
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
and
|
those
|
in
|
authority,
27:4
|
Saying,
|
I
|
have
|
done
|
wrong
|
in
|
giving
|
into
|
your
|
hands
|
an
|
upright
|
man.
|
But
|
they
|
said,
|
What
|
is
|
that
|
to
|
us?
|
it
|
is
|
your
|
business.
27:5
|
And
|
he
|
put
|
down
|
the
|
silver
|
in
|
the
|
Temple
|
and
|
went out,
|
and
|
put
|
himself
|
to
|
death
|
by
|
hanging.
27:6
|
And
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
took
|
the
|
silver
|
and
|
said,
|
It
|
is
|
not
|
right
to
|
put
|
it
|
in
|
the
|
Temple
|
store
|
for
|
it
|
is
|
the
|
price
|
of
|
blood.
27:7
|
And
|
they
|
made
|
a
|
decision
to
|
get
|
with
|
the
|
silver
|
the
|
potter’s
|
field,
|
as
|
a
|
place
|
for
|
the
|
dead
|
of
|
other
|
countries.
27:8
|
For
|
this
|
cause
|
that
|
field
|
was
|
named,
|
The
|
field
|
of
|
blood,
|
to
|
this
|
day.
27:9
|
Then
|
came
|
true
|
that
|
which
|
was
|
said
|
by
|
Jeremiah
|
the
prophet,
|
And
|
they
|
took
|
the
|
thirty
|
bits
|
of
|
silver,
|
the
|
price
|
of
|
him
|
who
|
was
|
valued
|
by
|
the
|
children
|
of
|
Israel;
27:10
|
And
|
they
|
gave
|
them
|
for
|
the
|
potter’s
|
field,
|
as
|
I
|
had
|
word
|
from
|
the
|
Lord.
27:11
|
And
|
Jesus
|
was
|
before
|
the
|
ruler,
|
who
|
put
|
a
|
question
|
to
|
him,
|
Are you
|
the
|
King
|
of
|
the
|
Jews?
|
And
|
Jesus
|
said
|
to
|
him,
|
You
|
say
|
so.
27:12
|
But
|
when
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
and
|
those
|
in
|
authority
|
made
|
statements
|
against
|
him,
|
he
|
gave
|
no
|
answer.
27:13
|
Then
|
says
Pilate
|
to
|
him,
|
Do you
|
give
|
no
|
attention
|
to
|
what
|
their
|
witnesses
|
say
|
against
|
you?
27:14
|
And
|
he
|
gave
|
him
|
no
|
answer,
|
not
even
|
a
|
word:
|
so
|
that
|
the
|
ruler
|
was
|
greatly
|
surprised.
27:15
|
Now
|
at
|
the
|
feast
|
it
|
was
|
the
|
way
|
for
|
the
|
ruler
to
|
let
|
free
|
to
|
the
|
people
|
one
|
prisoner,
|
at
|
their
|
selection.
27:16
|
And
|
they
|
had
|
then
|
an
|
important
|
prisoner,
|
whose
|
name
|
was
Barabbas.
27:17
|
So
|
when
|
they
|
came
|
together,
Pilate
|
said
|
to
|
them,
Whom
|
will you
|
have?
Barabbas,
|
or
|
Jesus,
|
who
|
is
|
named
|
Christ?
27:18
|
For
|
he
|
saw
|
that
|
for
|
envy
|
they
|
had
|
given
|
him
|
up.
27:19
|
And
|
while
|
he
|
was
|
on
|
the
|
judge’s
|
seat,
|
his
|
wife
|
sent
|
to
|
him,
|
saying,
|
Have
|
nothing
to
|
do
|
with
|
that
|
upright
|
man,
|
for
|
I
|
have
|
had
|
much
|
trouble
|
this
|
day
|
in
|
a
|
dream
|
because
|
of
|
him.
27:20
|
Now
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
and
|
those
|
in
|
authority
|
got
|
the
|
people
to
|
make
|
request
|
for
Barabbas,
|
and
|
for
|
Jesus
to
|
be
|
put
|
to
|
death.
27:21
|
But
|
the
|
ruler
|
made
|
answer
|
and
|
said
|
to
|
them,
|
Which
|
of
|
the
|
two
|
is
|
it
|
your
|
pleasure
|
that
|
I
|
let go
|
free?
|
And
|
they
|
said,
Barabbas.
27:22
Pilate
|
says
|
to
|
them,
|
What,
|
then,
|
am I
to
|
do
|
with
|
Jesus,
|
who
|
is
|
named
|
Christ?
|
They
|
all
|
say,
|
Let
|
him
|
be
|
put
|
to
|
death
|
on
|
the
|
cross.
27:23
|
And
|
he
|
said,
|
Why,
|
what
|
evil
|
has
|
he
|
done?
|
But
|
they
|
gave
|
loud
|
cries,
|
saying,
|
To
|
the
|
cross
|
with
|
him!
27:24
|
So
|
when
Pilate
|
saw
|
that
|
he
|
was able
to
|
do
|
nothing,
|
but
|
that
|
trouble
|
was working
|
up,
|
he
|
took
|
water
|
and,
|
washing his hands
|
before
|
the
|
people,
|
said,
|
The
|
blood
|
of
|
this
|
upright
|
man
|
is
|
not
|
on
|
my
|
hands:
|
you
|
are
|
responsible.
27:25
|
And
|
all
|
the
|
people
|
made
|
answer
|
and
|
said,
|
Let
|
his
|
blood
|
be
|
on
|
us,
|
and
|
on
|
our
|
children.
27:26
|
Then
|
he
|
let
Barabbas
|
go
|
free:
|
but
|
after
|
having
|
Jesus
|
whipped,
|
he
|
gave
|
him
|
up to
|
be
|
put
|
to
|
death
|
on
|
the
|
cross.
27:27
|
Then
|
the
|
ruler’s
|
armed men
|
took
|
Jesus
|
into
|
the
|
open
|
square,
|
and
|
got
|
all
|
their
|
band
|
together.
27:28
|
And
|
they
|
took off
|
his
|
clothing,
|
and
|
put on
|
him
|
a
|
red
|
robe.
27:29
|
And
|
they
|
made
|
a
|
crown
|
of
|
thorns
|
and
|
put
|
it
|
on
|
his
|
head,
|
and
|
put
|
a
|
rod
|
in
|
his
|
right hand,
|
and
|
they
|
went down
|
on
|
their
|
knees
|
before
|
him,
|
and
|
made
|
sport
|
of
|
him,
|
saying,
|
Long
|
life
|
to
|
the
|
King
|
of
|
the
|
Jews.
27:30
|
And
|
they
|
put
shame
|
on
|
him,
|
and
|
gave
|
him
|
blows
|
on
|
the
|
head
|
with
|
the
|
rod.
27:31
|
And
|
when
|
they
|
had
|
made
|
sport
|
of
|
him,
|
they
|
took
|
the
|
robe
|
off
|
him,
|
and
|
put
|
his
|
clothing
|
on
|
him,
|
and
|
took
|
him
|
away
to
|
put
|
him
|
on
|
the
|
cross.
27:32
|
And
|
while
|
they
|
were
|
coming out,
|
they
|
saw
|
a
|
man
|
of
Cyrene,
|
Simon
|
by
|
name,
|
and
|
they
|
made
|
him
|
go
|
with
|
them,
|
so
|
that
|
he
|
might
|
take
|
up
|
his
|
cross.
27:33
|
And
|
when
|
they
|
came to
|
the
|
place
|
named
Golgotha,
|
that
|
is
to
|
say,
|
Dead
|
Man’s
|
Head,
27:34
|
They
|
gave
|
him
|
wine
|
mixed
|
with
|
bitter
|
drink:
|
and
|
after
|
tasting
|
it,
|
he
|
took
|
no more.
27:35
|
And
|
when
|
they
|
had
|
put
|
him
|
on
|
the
|
cross,
|
they
|
made
|
division
|
of
|
his
|
clothing
|
among
|
them
|
by
|
the
|
decision
|
of
|
chance.
27:36
|
And
|
they
|
were
|
seated
|
there
|
watching
|
him.
27:37
|
And
|
they
|
put
|
up
|
over
|
his
|
head
|
the
|
statement
|
of
|
his
|
crime
|
in
|
writing,
|
THIS
|
IS
|
JESUS
|
THE
|
KING
|
OF
|
THE
|
JEWS.
27:38
|
Then
|
two
|
thieves
|
were
|
put on
|
crosses
|
with
|
him,
|
one
|
on
|
the
|
right
|
and
|
one
|
on
|
the
|
left.
27:39
|
And
|
those
|
who
|
went by
|
said
|
bitter
|
words
|
to
|
him,
|
shaking
|
their
|
heads
|
and
|
saying,
27:40
|
You
|
who
|
would
|
give
|
the
|
Temple
|
to
|
destruction
|
and
|
put
|
it
|
up
|
again
|
in
|
three days,
|
get
|
yourself
|
free:
|
if
|
you
|
are
|
the
|
Son
|
of
|
God,
|
come
|
down
|
from
|
the
|
cross.
27:41
|
In
|
the
|
same way,
|
the
|
chief
|
priests,
|
making
|
sport
|
of
|
him,
|
with
|
the
|
scribes
|
and
|
those
|
in
|
authority,
|
said,
27:42
|
A
saviour
|
of
|
others,
|
he
|
has
|
no
salvation
|
for
|
himself.
|
If
|
he
|
is
|
the
|
King
|
of
|
Israel,
|
let
|
him
|
now
|
come
|
down
|
from
|
the
|
cross,
|
and
|
we
|
will
|
have
|
faith
|
in
|
him.
27:43
|
He
|
put
|
his
|
faith
|
in
|
God;
|
let
|
God
|
be
|
his
saviour
|
now,
|
if
|
he
|
will
|
have
|
him;
|
for
|
he
|
said,
|
I
|
am
|
the
|
Son
|
of
|
God.
27:44
|
And
|
the
|
thieves
|
who
|
were
|
on
|
the
|
crosses
|
said
|
evil
|
words
|
to
|
him.
27:45
|
Now
|
from
|
the
|
sixth
|
hour
|
it
|
was
|
dark
|
over
|
all
|
the
|
land
|
till
|
the
|
ninth
|
hour.
27:46
|
And
|
about
|
the
|
ninth
|
hour
|
Jesus
|
gave
|
a
|
loud
|
cry,
|
saying,
|
Eli,
|
Eli,
lama
sabachthani?
|
that
|
is,
|
My
|
God,
|
my
|
God,
|
why
|
are you
|
turned
|
away from
|
me?
27:47
|
And
|
some
|
of
|
those
|
who
|
were
|
near
|
by,
|
hearing
|
it,
|
said,
|
This
|
man
|
is
|
crying
|
to
|
Elijah.
27:48
|
And
|
straight away
|
one
|
of
|
them
|
went
|
quickly,
|
and
|
took
|
a
|
sponge,
|
and
|
made
|
it
|
full
|
of
|
bitter
|
wine,
|
and
|
put
|
it
|
on
|
a
|
rod
|
and
|
gave
|
him
|
drink.
27:49
|
And
|
the rest
|
said,
|
Let
|
him
|
be;
|
let
|
us
|
see
|
if
|
Elijah
|
will
|
come to
|
his
|
help.
27:50
|
And
|
Jesus
|
gave
|
another
|
loud
|
cry,
|
and
|
gave
|
up
|
his
|
spirit.
27:51
|
And
|
the
|
curtain
|
of
|
the
|
Temple
|
was
|
parted
|
in
|
two
|
from
|
end
to
|
end;
|
and
|
there
|
was
|
an
|
|
earth-shock;
|
and
|
the
|
rocks
|
were
|
broken;
27:52
|
And
|
the
|
resting-places
|
of
|
the
|
dead
|
came
|
open;
|
and
|
the
|
bodies
|
of
|
a
|
number
|
of
|
sleeping
|
saints
|
came to
|
life;
27:53
|
And
|
coming out
|
of
|
their
|
resting-places,
|
after
|
he
|
had
|
come
|
again
|
from
|
the
|
dead,
|
they
|
went into
|
the
|
holy
|
town
|
and
|
were
|
seen
|
by
|
a
|
number
|
of
|
people.
27:54
|
Now
|
the
|
captain
|
and
|
those
|
who
|
were
|
with
|
him
|
watching
|
Jesus,
|
when
|
they
|
saw
|
the
|
|
earth-shock
|
and
|
the
|
things
|
which
|
were
|
done,
|
were
|
in
|
great
|
fear
|
and
|
said,
|
Truly
|
this
|
was
|
a
|
son
|
of
|
God.
27:55
|
And
|
a
|
number
|
of
|
women
|
were
|
there,
|
watching
|
from
|
a
|
distance,
|
who
|
had
|
come
|
with
|
Jesus
|
from
Galilee,
|
waiting
|
on
|
his
|
needs.
27:56
|
Among
whom
|
was
|
Mary
Magdalene,
|
and
|
Mary,
|
the
|
mother
|
of
|
James
|
and
|
Joses,
|
and
|
the
|
mother
|
of
|
the
|
sons
|
of
Zebedee.
27:57
|
And
|
in
|
the
|
evening,
|
there
|
came
|
a
|
man
|
of
|
wealth
|
from
Arimathaea,
|
Joseph
|
by
|
name,
|
who
|
was
|
a
|
disciple
|
of
|
Jesus:
27:58
|
This
|
man
|
went
|
in
|
to
Pilate,
|
and
|
made
|
a
|
request
|
for
|
the
|
body
|
of
|
Jesus.
|
Then
Pilate
|
gave
|
orders
|
for
|
it
to
|
be
|
given
|
to
|
him.
27:59
|
And
|
Joseph
|
took
|
the
|
body,
|
folding
|
it
|
in
|
clean
|
linen,
27:60
|
And
|
put
|
it
|
in
|
the
|
resting-place
|
which
|
had been
|
cut out
|
of
|
the
|
rock
|
for
|
himself;
|
and
|
after
|
rolling
|
a
|
great
|
stone
|
to
|
the
|
door
|
of
|
it
|
he
|
went away.
27:61
|
And
|
Mary
Magdalene
|
was
|
there,
|
and
|
the
|
other
|
Mary,
|
seated
|
by
|
the
|
place
|
of
|
the
|
dead.
27:62
|
Now
|
on
|
the
|
day
|
after
|
the
|
getting ready
|
of
|
the
|
Passover,
|
the
|
chief
|
priests
|
and
Pharisees
|
came
|
together
|
to
Pilate,
27:63
|
Saying,
|
Sir,
|
we
|
have
|
in
|
mind
|
how
|
that
|
false
|
man
|
said,
|
while
|
he
|
was
|
still
|
living,
|
After
|
three days
|
I
|
will
|
come
|
again
|
from
|
the
|
dead.
27:64
|
Give
|
orders,
|
then,
|
that
|
the
|
place
|
where
|
his
|
body
|
is
|
may
|
be
|
made
|
safe
|
till
|
the
|
third
|
day,
|
for
|
fear
|
that
|
his
|
disciples
|
come
|
and
|
take
|
him
|
away
|
secretly
|
and
|
say
|
to
|
the
|
people,
|
He
|
has
|
come back
|
from
|
the
|
dead:
|
and
|
the
|
last
|
error
|
will
|
be
|
worse
|
than
|
the
|
first.
27:65
Pilate
|
said
|
to
|
them,
|
You
|
have
watchmen;
|
go
|
and
|
make
|
it
|
as
|
safe
|
as
|
you
|
are able.
27:66
|
So
|
they
|
went,
|
and
|
made
|
safe
|
the
|
place
|
where
|
his
|
body
|
was,
|
putting
|
a
|
stamp
|
on
|
the
|
stone,
|
and
|
the
watchmen
|
were
|
with
|
them.
