Mark 15
15
Handed Over to the Romans
1Right at daybreak, the ruling kohanim held a meeting to consult with the elders and Torah scholars and the whole Sanhedrin. They tied up Yeshua, led Him away, and handed Him over to Pilate.
2Pilate interrogated Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” Yeshua answers him, “As you say.”
3The ruling kohanim began to accuse Him of many things.
4Again, Pilate asked Him, “Aren’t you going to answer? Look how many charges they’re bringing against You!”
5But Yeshua did not answer, so Pilate was amazed.
6Now during the feast, he used to release to them one prisoner, anyone they were asking for.
7Now a man named Bar-Abba had been in jail with the rebels who had committed murder during the rebellion.
8The crowd came up and began to request what he was accustomed to do for them.
9But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?”
10For he knew that out of envy the ruling kohanim had handed Him over.
11But the ruling kohanim stirred up the crowd, so he would release Bar-Abba to them instead.
12Then answering again, Pilate said to them, “So what do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”
13They shouted back, “Execute Him!”
14Pilate responded, “Why? What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the more, “Execute Him!”
15Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Bar-Abba for them. And after he had Yeshua scourged, he handed Him over to be crucified.
16The soldiers took Him away, into the palace, the governor’s mansion called the Praetorium. And they call together the cohort of soldiers.
17They dress Him up in purple. After braiding a crown of thorns, they put it on Him.
18And they began to salute Him, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
19Over and over, they kept hitting Him on the head with a staff and spitting on Him; and kneeling down, they worshiped Him.
20When they finished mocking Him, they stripped the purple off Him and put His own clothes back on Him. And they led Him out to crucify Him.
Crucified as King of the Jews
21Now Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was coming in from the countryside. The soldiers force this passerby to carry Yeshua’s cross-beam.
22They bring Yeshua to the place called Golgotha (which is translated, Place of a Skull).
23They were offering Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He didn’t take it.
24Then they crucify Him and divide up His clothing among themselves, casting lots for them to see who should take what.
25Now it was the third hour when they nailed Him on the stake.
26And the inscription of the charge against Him was written above: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
27And with Him they execute two outlaws, one on His right and one on His left.
28[footnote: Later mss. add: So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, 'He was counted with the sinners.' See Isa. 53:12.]
29Those passing by were jeering at Him, shaking their heads and saying, “Ha! You who are going to destroy the Temple and rebuild it in three days,
30save Yourself by coming down from the stake!”
31Likewise the ruling kohanim, along with the Torah scholars, were also mocking Him among themselves. “He saved others,” they were saying, “but He can’t save Himself?
32Let the Messiah, the King of Israel, come down now from the stake, so we may see and believe!” Even those executed with Him were ridiculing Him.
Death and Burial
33When the sixth hour had come, darkness fell over the whole land until the ninth hour.
34At the ninth hour Yeshua cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” which is translated, “My God, My God, why have You abandoned Me?”
35When some of the bystanders heard it, they began saying, “Look, He’s calling for Elijah.”
36Then someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He put it on a stick and was offering it to Yeshua to drink, saying, “Wait, let’s see if Elijah comes to take Him down.”
37But letting out a loud cry, Yeshua breathed His last.
38Then the curtain of the Temple was split in two, from top to bottom.
39When the centurion, who was standing in front of Him, saw the way Yeshua breathed His last, he said, “This Man really was the Son of God!”
40There were also women watching from a distance. Among them were Miriam from Magdala, Miriam the mother of Jacob the younger and of Joses, and Salome.
41They would follow Him and serve Him when He was in the Galilee. Many other women who had gone up together with Him to Jerusalem were there also.
42Now evening had already come. Since it was the Day of Preparation, that is, the day before Shabbat,
43Joseph of Arimathea, a respected council member who himself was waiting for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for Yeshua’s body.
44Pilate was surprised that He was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him whether Yeshua had been dead for long.
45When Pilate learned this from the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.
46Joseph bought a linen cloth, took Him down, wrapped Him in the linen, and laid Him in a tomb that had been cut out of the rock. Then he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.
47Miriam from Magdala and Miriam the mother of Joses were watching where Yeshua’s body was placed.

Marqos (Mark) 15
15
1And immediately, in the morning, the chief priests had a council meeting with the elders and scribes and all the council. Having bound יהושע, they led Him away, and delivered Him to Pilate.
2And Pilate asked Him, “Are You the Sovereign of the Yehuḏim?” And He answering, said to him, “You say it.”
3And the chief priests accused Him of much, but He made no answer.
4And Pilate again asked Him, saying, “Have You no answer? See how much they witness against You!”
5But יהושע still gave no answer, so that Pilate marvelled.
6And at a festival he released to them one prisoner, whomever they were asking.
7And there was one called Barabba, chained with his fellow rebels, who had committed murder in the uprising.
8And the crowd, crying aloud, began to ask, as he had always done for them.
9But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you wish me to release for you the Sovereign of the Yehuḏim?”
10For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.
11And the chief priests stirred up the crowd, that he should rather release Barabba to them.
12And Pilate answered and again said to them, “What then do you wish me to do to Him whom you call the Sovereign of the Yehuḏim?”
13And again they cried out, “Impale Him!”
14And Pilate said to them, “Why, what evil has He done?” And they vehemently cried out, “Impale Him!”
15And Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released Barabba to them, and having whipped Him, he delivered יהושע over to be impaled.
16And the soldiers led Him away into the court, which is the palace, and they called together the entire company of soldiers,
17and decked Him with purple. And they plaited a crown of thorns, put it on Him,
18and they began to call out to Him, “Greetings, Sovereign of the Yehuḏim!”
19And they kept beating Him on the head with a reed and were spitting on Him. And bending the knee, they were bowing down to Him.
20And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him, and put His own garments on Him, and led Him out to impale Him.
21And they compelled a passer-by, Shim‛on, a Cyrenian, coming from a field, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear His stake.
22And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translated, Place of a Skull.
23And they were giving Him wine mixed with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it.
24And when they impaled Him, they divided His garments, casting lots for them,# Psa. 22:18 what each one should take.
25And it was the third hour, and they impaled Him.
26And the inscription of His accusation was written above: THE SOVEREIGN OF THE YEHUḎIM.
27And with Him they impaled two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.
28And the Scripture was filled which says,“And He was reckoned with the lawless.”# Isa. 53:12
29And those passing by were blaspheming Him, shaking their heads# Psa. 22:7 and saying, “Ah! You who destroy the Dwelling Place and build it in three days,
30save Yourself, and come down from the stake!”
31And likewise the chief priests and the scribes, mocking to one another said, “He saved others, He is unable to save Himself.
32The Messiah? The Sovereign of Yisra’ĕl? Come down now from the stake, so that we see and believe. And those who were impaled with Him were reproaching Him.
33And when the sixth hour came, darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.
34And at the ninth hour יהושע cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Ěli, Ěli, lamah sheḇaqtani?”#In Hebrew - “Eli, Eli lamah azaḇtani” - as per Psa. 22:1 which is translated,“My Ěl, My Ěl, why have You forsaken Me?”# Psa. 22:1
35And some of those standing by, when they heard it, said, “See, He is calling for Ěliyahu!”
36And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink,# Psa. 69:21 saying, “Leave Him, let us see if Ěliyahu does come to take Him down.”
37And יהושע cried out with a loud voice, and breathed His last.
38And the veil of the Dwelling Place was torn in two from top to bottom.
39And when the captain, who was standing opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said, “Truly this Man was the Son of Elohim!”
40And there were also women watching from a distance, among whom was also Miryam from Maḡdala, and Miryam the mother of Ya‛aqoḇ the Less and of Yosĕph, and Shelomah,
41who also followed Him and attended Him when He was in Galil, and many other women who came up with Him to Yerushalayim.
42And when evening had come, because it was the Preparation Day, that is, the day before the Sabbath,
43Yosĕph of Ramathayim, a prominent council member, who was himself waiting for the reign of Elohim, came, boldly went in to Pilate and asked for the body of יהושע.
44But Pilate wondered whether He was already dead, so summoning the captain, he asked him if He was already dead.
45And when he learned this from the captain, he gave the body to Yosĕph.
46And he, having bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapped Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.
47And Miryam from Maḡdala, and Miryam the mother of Yosĕph, saw where He was laid.
