Mark 10:33An Understandable Version (2005 edition)He said, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem and the Son of man will be turned over to the leading priests and experts in the Law of Moses. They will condemn Him to death and turn Him over to the [unconverted] Gentiles. See the chapter |
For the people living in Jerusalem, together with their ruling officials, did not understand [that Jesus was the Messiah] or what the message of the prophets, which is read every Sabbath day, really meant. So, [because of this] they [actually] made these Scripture predictions come true by condemning Jesus.
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].
