From that time onward Jesus began to explain to His disciples that He would have to go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the [Jewish] elders, leading priests, and experts in the Law of Moses; [that He would then] be killed and [yet] raised up on the third day.
and turn Him over to the [unconverted] Gentiles, who will mock, whip and crucify Him; then on the third day He will be raised up.”
But the rest of them grabbed his servants, physically abused them and [finally] killed them.
Then they spit in His face and hit Him [with their fists], while others slapped Him [in the face],
So, they chained Him, led Him away and turned Him over to Pilate, the [Roman] governor.
And some of them began to spit on Him, then to cover His face [with a blindfold] and hit Him [with their fists], saying, “Prophesy [i.e., tell who hit you].” And the officers in charge of Him also struck Him with their hands.
As soon as it was morning the leading priests, along with the [Jewish] elders and experts in the Law of Moses and the entire Council, held a conference. Then they tied Jesus up, led Him away and turned Him over to Pilate [the Roman governor].
[The Romans] will flog Him and kill Him, but on the third day He will rise again [from the dead].”
Then the entire group of them [i.e., of the Jewish elders, priests and law experts] got up [from their Council meeting] and took Jesus to [governor] Pilate.
Then Herod and his soldiers treated Jesus with contempt and mocked Him. They dressed Him in a luxurious robe and then sent Him back to Pilate.
People stood [around] watching [all this], while the leaders even sneered at Him, saying, “He saved other people; [now] let him save himself [i.e., from dying] if he [really] is the Christ, God’s specially chosen one.”
When Jesus said this, one of the guards standing there struck Him [in the face], saying, “Is that any way to talk to the head priest?”
Then, early in the morning they led Jesus from Caiaphas to [Governor Pilate’s] headquarters. But the Jewish authorities would not enter it, because [if they had] they would have become ceremonially unclean, and could not eat the Passover meal. [Note: This was because they regarded a Gentile house as defiling].
The Jewish authorities answered Pilate, “If this man were not guilty of wrongdoing, we would not have turned him over to you.”
[They said this] so that the words Jesus had spoken would be fulfilled, regarding the kind of death He would die. [Note: Jesus had predicted he would be “lifted up,” indicating a Roman crucifixion. See 12:32-33].
Pilate answered, “Am I a Jew? Your own people and the leading priests turned you over to me. What have you done?”
Yet, He was handed over to you so that, by lawless men [i.e., the Romans], He was put to death by crucifixion. Now this was all done in harmony with God's full pre-knowledge and [divine] purpose.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob --- the God of our forefathers --- has highly honored His servant Jesus, whom you people turned over [to the Roman authorities] and denied [Him freedom] in the presence of [governor] Pilate, who had already decided to release Him.
