The Gospel according toSt. Mark
St. Mark 15
Jesus before Pilate | |
Mt. 27.12, 11-14 · Lk. 23.1-5 · Joh. 18.28-38 | |
1 |
And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate. |
2 |
And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it. |
3 |
And the chief priests accused him of many things; but he answered nothing. |
4 |
And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee. |
5 |
But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marveled. |
Jesus Sentenced to Die | |
Mt. 27.15-31 · Lk. 23.13-25 · Joh. 18.38—19.16 | |
6 |
¶ Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. |
7 |
And there was one named Barab’bas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection. |
8 |
And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them. |
9 |
But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews? |
10 |
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy. |
11 |
But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barab’bas unto them. |
12 |
And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews? |
13 |
And they cried out again, Crucify him. |
14 |
Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him. |
15 |
And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barab’bas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. |
16 |
¶ And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Preto’ri-um; and they call together the whole band. |
17 |
And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head, |
18 |
and began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews! |
19 |
And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him. |
20 |
And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him. |
The Crucifixion | |
Mt. 27.32-56 · Lk. 23.26-49 · Joh. 19.17-30 | |
21 |
¶ And they compel one Simon a Cyre’nian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, Rom. 16.13 to bear his cross. |
22 |
And they bring him unto the place Gol’gotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull. |
23 |
And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. |
24 |
And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, Ps. 22.18 what every man should take. |
25 |
And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. |
26 |
And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS. |
27 |
And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. |
28 |
And the Scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors. Is. 53.12 |
29 |
And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, Ps. 22.7 ; 109.25 and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, Mk. 14.58 · Joh. 2.19 |
30 |
save thyself, and come down from the cross. |
31 |
Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save. |
32 |
Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him. |
33 |
¶ And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. |
34 |
And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, E’lo-i, E’lo-i, lama sabach’thani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Ps. 22.1 |
35 |
And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Eli’jah. |
36 |
And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, Ps. 69.21 saying, Let alone; let us see whether Eli’jah will come to take him down. |
37 |
And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. |
38 |
And the veil Ex. 26.31-33 of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. |
39 |
And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God. |
40 |
¶ There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Mag’dalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salo’me; |
41 |
who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him; Lk. 8.2, 3 and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem. |
The Burial of Jesus | |
Mt. 27.57-61 · Lk. 23.50-56 · Joh. 19.38-42 | |
42 |
¶ And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, |
43 |
Joseph of Arimathe’a, an honorable counselor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. |
44 |
And Pilate marveled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. |
45 |
And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. |
46 |
And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. |
47 |
And Mary Mag’dalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid. |
