Jesus Taken to Pilate
1 And as soon as morning came, after#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“formulating”) which is understood as temporal formulating a plan, the chief priests, with the elders and scribes and the whole Sanhedrin, tied up Jesus, led him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation away, and handed him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation over to Pilate. 2And Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?” And he answered him and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“answered”) has been translated as a finite verb said, “You say so.” 3And the chief priests began to accuse#The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to accuse”) him of many things. 4So Pilate asked him again, saying, “Do you not answer anything? See how many charges#*The word “charges” is not in the Greek text but is implied they are bringing against you!” 5But Jesus did not answer anything further, so that Pilate was astonished.
Pilate Releases Barabbas
6Now at each feast he customarily released#The imperfect tense has been translated as customary here (“customarily released”) for them one prisoner whom they requested. 7And the one named Barabbas#“Barabbas” means “son of the father” in Aramaic was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder in the rebellion. 8And the crowd came up and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“came up”) has been translated as a finite verb began to ask him to do as he customarily did#The imperfect tense has been translated as customary here (“customarily did”) for them. 9So Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?” 10(For he realized that the chief priests had handed him over because of envy.) 11But the chief priests incited the crowd so that he would release for them Barabbas#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“answered”) has been translated as a finite verb instead. 12So Pilate answered and said to them again, “Then what do you want me to do with the one whom you call the king of the Jews?” 13And they shouted again, “Crucify him!” 14And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted even louder, “Crucify him!”
15So Pilate, because he#*Here “because” is supplied as a component of the participle (“wanted”) which is understood as causal wanted to satisfy#Literally “to make sufficient” the crowd, released for them Barabbas. And after#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“flogged”) which is understood as temporal he had Jesus flogged, he handed him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation over so that he could be crucified.
Jesus Is Mocked
16So the soldiers led him away into the palace (that is, the governor’s residence) and called together the whole cohort. 17And they put a purple cloak on him, and after#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“weaving”) which is understood as temporal weaving a crown of thorns they placed it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation on him. 18And they began to greet him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” 19And they repeatedly struck#The imperfect tense has been translated as iterative here (“repeatedly struck”) him on the head with a reed, and were spitting on him, and they knelt down#Literally “bending the knees” and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“knelt down”) has been translated as a finite verb did obeisance to him. 20And when they had mocked him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes#Some manuscripts have “his clothes” in place of “his own clothes” on him, and they led him out so that they could crucify him.
Jesus Is Crucified
21And they forced a certain man who was passing by, Simon of Cyrene (the father of Alexander and Rufus), who was coming from the country, to carry his cross. 22And they brought him to the place Golgotha (which is translated “Place of a Skull”). 23And they attempted to give#*Here the imperfect tense is translated as a conative imperfect (“attempted to give”) him wine mixed with myrrh, but he did not take it. 24And they crucified him and divided his clothes among themselves#*Here “among themselves” reflects the middle voice of the verb “divided” by#*Here “by” is supplied as a component of the participle (“casting”) which is understood as means casting lots for them to see who should take what. 25Now it was the third hour when they crucified him. 26And the inscription of the charge against him was written, “The king of the Jews.” 27And with him they crucified two robbers, one on his right and one on his left.#Most later Greek manuscripts add v. 28 (a quotation from Isa 53:12) after v. 27, “And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘And he was counted with the lawless ones’ ” 29And those who passed by reviled him, shaking their heads and saying, “Aha! The one who would destroy the temple and rebuild it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation in three days, 30save yourself by#*Here “by” is supplied as a component of the participle (“coming down”) which is understood as means coming down from the cross!” 31In the same way also the chief priests, along with the scribes, were mocking him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation to one another, saying, “He saved others; he is not able to save himself! 32Let the Christ, the king of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe! Even those who were crucified with him were reviling him.
Jesus Dies on the Cross
33And when#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“came”) the sixth hour came, darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. 34And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” (which is translated, “My God, my God, why#Literally “for what reason” have you forsaken me?”)#A quotation from Ps 22:1 35And some of the bystanders, when they#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“heard”) which is understood as temporal heard it,#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation said, “Behold, he is summoning Elijah!” 36And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation on a reed, and#*Here “and” is supplied because the two previous participles (“ran” and “filled”) have been translated as finite verbs gave it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation to him to drink, saying, “Leave him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation alone!

Jesus Is Buried
42And when it#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“was”) was already evening, since it was the day of preparation (that is, the day before the Sabbath), 43Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent member of the council who was also himself looking forward to#Or “waiting for” the kingdom of God, came acting courageously and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“came”) has been translated as a finite verb went in to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. 44And Pilate was surprised that he was already dead, and summoning the centurion, asked him whether he had died already. 45And when he#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“learned of”) which is understood as temporal learned of it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation from the centurion, he granted the corpse to Joseph. 46And after#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the participle (“purchasing”) which is understood as temporal purchasing a linen cloth and#*Here “and” is supplied because the participle (“taking...down”) has been translated as a finite verb in keeping with English style taking him down, he wrapped him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation in the linen cloth and placed him in a tomb that had been cut from the rock.

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.
