katapi HOME Matthew 26:59-6626 59 The chief priests and the whole Council tried to find some allegation against Jesus on which a death-sentence could be based; 26 60 but they failed to find one, though many came forward with false evidence. Finally two men 26 61 alleged that he had said, 'I can pull down the temple of God, and rebuild it in three days.' 26 62 At this the High Priest rose and said to him, 'Have you no answer the the charge that these witnesses bring against you?' 26 63 But Jesus kept silence. The High Priest then said, 'By the living God I charge you to tell us: Are you the Messiah, the Son of God?' 26 64 [ Ps.110.1, Dn.7.13. ] Jesus replied, "The words are yours. Or: It is as you say. But I tell you this: from now on, you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of God Literally: of the Power. and coming on the clouds of heaven.' 26 65 At these words the High Priest tore his robes and exclaimed, 'Blasphemy! Need we call further witnesses? You have heard the blasphemy. 26 66 What is your opinion?' 'He is guilty,' they answered; 'he should die.'
