See <i>to that</i> yourself!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>And he threw the pieces of silver into the sanctuary and departed; and he went away and hanged himself. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And the chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple treasury, since it is the price of blood.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>And they counseled together and with the money bought the Potter’s Field as a burial place for strangers. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>For this reason that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>Then that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, “AND THEY TOOK THE THIRTY PIECES OF SILVER, THE PRICE OF THE ONE WHOSE PRICE HAD BEEN SET by the sons of Israel; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>AND THEY GAVE THEM FOR THE POTTER’S FIELD, AS THE LORD DIRECTED ME.” <p><b><i>Jesus before Pilate</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor questioned Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?” And Jesus said to him, “<i>It is as</i> you say.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He made no answer. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>Then Pilate said to Him, “Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>And He did not answer him with regard to even a <i>single</i> charge, so that the governor was quite amazed. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>Now at <i>the</i> feast the governor was accustomed to release for the multitude <i>any</i> one prisoner whom they wanted. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>And they were holding at that time a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release for you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>For he knew that because of envy they had delivered Him up. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>And while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, “Have nothing to do with that righteous Man; for last night I suffered greatly in a dream because of Him.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas, and to put Jesus to death. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>But the governor answered and said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do with Jesus who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let Him be crucified!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>And he said, “Why, what evil has He done?” But they kept shouting all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>And when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but rather that a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the multitude, saying, “I am innocent of this Man’s blood; see <i>to that</i> yourselves.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>And all the people answered and said, “His blood <i>be</i> on us and on our children!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>Then he released Barabbas for them; but after having Jesus scourged, he delivered Him to be crucified. <p><b><i>Jesus Is Mocked</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole <i>Roman</i> cohort around Him. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>And they stripped Him, and put a scarlet robe on Him. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>And after weaving a crown of thorns, they put it on His head, and a reed in His right hand; and they kneeled down before Him and mocked Him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>And they spat on Him, and took the reed and <i>began</i> to beat Him on the head. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>And after they had mocked Him, they took His robe off and put His garments on Him, and led Him away to crucify <i>Him.</i> <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-32.htm"><b>32</b></a></span>And as they were coming out, they found a man of Cyrene named Simon, whom they pressed into service to bear His cross. <p><b><i>The Crucifixion</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-33.htm"><b>33</b></a></span>And when they had come to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a Skull, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-34.htm"><b>34</b></a></span>they gave Him wine to drink mingled with gall; and after tasting <i>it,</i> He was unwilling to drink. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-35.htm"><b>35</b></a></span>And when they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments among themselves, casting lots; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-36.htm"><b>36</b></a></span>and sitting down, they <i>began</i> to keep watch over Him there. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-37.htm"><b>37</b></a></span>And they put up above His head the charge against Him which read, “THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-38.htm"><b>38</b></a></span>At that time two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and one on the left. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>And those passing by were hurling abuse at Him, wagging their heads, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>and saying, “You who <i>are going to</i> destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking <i>Him,</i> and saying, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-42.htm"><b>42</b></a></span>“He saved others; He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we shall believe in Him. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-43.htm"><b>43</b></a></span>“HE TRUSTS IN GOD; LET HIM DELIVER <i>Him</i> now, IF HE TAKES PLEASURE IN HIM; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-44.htm"><b>44</b></a></span>And the robbers also who had been crucified with Him were casting the same insult at Him. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-45.htm"><b>45</b></a></span>Now from the sixth hour darkness fell upon all the land until the ninth hour. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-46.htm"><b>46</b></a></span>And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?” that is, “MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME?” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-47.htm"><b>47</b></a></span>And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, <i>began</i> saying, “This man is calling for Elijah.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-48.htm"><b>48</b></a></span>And immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge, he filled it with sour wine, and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-49.htm"><b>49</b></a></span>But the rest <i>of them</i> said, “Let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-50.htm"><b>50</b></a></span>And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up <i>His</i> spirit. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-51.htm"><b>51</b></a></span>And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth shook; and the rocks were split, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-52.htm"><b>52</b></a></span>and the tombs were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-53.htm"><b>53</b></a></span>and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection they entered the holy city and appeared to many. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-54.htm"><b>54</b></a></span>Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, became very frightened and said, “Truly this was the Son of God!” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-55.htm"><b>55</b></a></span>And many women were there looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-56.htm"><b>56</b></a></span>among whom was Mary Magdalene, <i>along with</i> Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee. <p><b><i>Jesus Is Buried</i></b><p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-57.htm"><b>57</b></a></span>And when it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-58.htm"><b>58</b></a></span>This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered <i>it</i> to be given over <i>to him.</i> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-59.htm"><b>59</b></a></span>And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-60.htm"><b>60</b></a></span>and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the entrance of the tomb and went away. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-61.htm"><b>61</b></a></span>And Mary Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the grave. <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-62.htm"><b>62</b></a></span>Now on the next day, which is <i>the one</i> after the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together with Pilate, <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-63.htm"><b>63</b></a></span>and said, “Sir, we remember that when He was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I <i>am to</i> rise again.’ <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-64.htm"><b>64</b></a></span>“Therefore, give orders for the grave to be made secure until the third day, lest the disciples come and steal Him away and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-65.htm"><b>65</b></a></span>Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go, make it <i>as</i> secure as you know how.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/matthew/27-66.htm"><b>66</b></a></span>And they went and made the grave secure, and along with the guard they set a seal on the stone.</div><br /><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
