Matthew 27:27An Understandable Version (2005 edition)Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus to Pilate’s headquarters and assembled the entire company [i.e., about 500 men] in front of Him. See the chapter |
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].
