MATTHEW

Matthew 27

1Then, when morning arrived, all the leaders of the priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so that they might deliver him to death.
Mark 15:1, Mark 15:1, John 18:28, John 18:28, Luke 22:66
2And they led him, bound, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the procurator.
Acts 3:13, Matthew 20:19, Acts 3:13, Matthew 20:19, 1 Timothy 6:13
3Then Judas, who betrayed him, seeing that he had been condemned, regretting his conduct, brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the leaders of the priests and the elders,
2 Corinthians 7:10, 2 Corinthians 7:10, Luke 22:47, Luke 22:48, Job 20:15
4saying, “I have sinned in betraying just blood.” But they said to him: “What is that to us? See to it yourself.”
Luke 23:22, Hebrews 7:26, Exodus 9:27, Luke 23:41, Titus 1:16
5And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed. And going out, he hanged himself with a snare.
Acts 1:18, Acts 1:19, Acts 1:18, Acts 1:19, 2 Samuel 17:23
6But the leaders of the priests, having taken up the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple offerings, because it is the price of blood.”
Luke 6:7, Luke 6:9, Deuteronomy 23:18, Luke 6:7, Luke 6:9
7Then, having taken counsel, they bought the potter’s field with it, as a burying place for sojourners.
8For this reason, that field is called Haceldama, that is, ‘The Field of Blood,’ even to this very day.
Acts 1:19, Acts 1:19, Matthew 28:15, Matthew 28:15, Joshua 4:9
9Then what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the one being appraised, whom they appraised before the sons of Israel,
Zechariah 11:12, Zechariah 11:13, Zechariah 11:12, Zechariah 11:13, Matthew 1:22
10and they gave it for the potter’s field, just as the Lord appointed to me.”
Zechariah 11:13, Zechariah 11:13
11Now Jesus stood before the procurator, and the procurator questioned him, saying, “You are the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “You are saying so.”
Mark 15:2, Mark 15:5, Luke 23:2, Luke 23:3, Mark 15:2
12And when he was accused by the leaders of the priests and the elders, he responded nothing.
Matthew 26:63, Matthew 26:63, Isaiah 53:7, Isaiah 53:7, 1 Peter 2:23
13Then Pilate said to him, “Do you not hear how much testimony they speak against you?”
Matthew 26:62, Matthew 26:62, Acts 22:24, John 18:35, Acts 22:24
14And he did not respond any word to him, so that the procurator wondered greatly.
Isaiah 8:18, Isaiah 8:18, Psalms 71:7, 1 Corinthians 4:9, Zechariah 3:8
15Now on the solemn day, the procurator was accustomed to release to the people one prisoner, whomever they wished.
John 19:16, Acts 25:9, John 18:38, John 18:40, Mark 15:6
16And at that time, he had a notorious prisoner, who was called Barabbas.
Mark 15:7, Mark 15:7, Romans 1:32, Luke 23:18, Luke 23:19
17Therefore, having been gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Who is it that you want me to release to you: Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”
John 19:15, John 19:15, 1 Kings 18:21, Joshua 24:15, Mark 15:9
18For he knew that it was out of envy they had handed him over.
Proverbs 27:4, Proverbs 27:4, Mark 15:10, Acts 5:17, Mark 15:10
19But as he was sitting in the place for the tribunal, his wife sent to him, saying: “It is nothing to you, and he is just. For I have experienced many things today through a vision for his sake.”
Matthew 27:24, Matthew 27:24, 1 Peter 2:22, John 19:13, Luke 23:47
20But the leaders of the priests and the elders persuaded the people, so that they would ask for Barabbas, and so that Jesus would perish.
Acts 3:14, Acts 3:15, Acts 3:14, Acts 3:15, John 19:15
21Then, in response, the procurator said to them, “Which of the two do you want to be released to you?” But they said to him, “Barabbas.”
22Pilate said to them, “Then what shall I do about Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let him be crucified.”
Isaiah 53:2, Isaiah 53:3, Isaiah 53:2, Isaiah 53:3, Acts 13:38
23The procurator said to them, “But what evil has he done?” But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let him be crucified.”
Acts 23:12, Acts 23:15, Genesis 37:18, Genesis 37:19, Acts 7:57
24Then Pilate, seeing that he was able to accomplish nothing, but that a greater tumult was occurring, taking water, washed his hands in the sight of the people, saying: “I am innocent of the blood of this just man. See to it yourselves.”
Psalms 26:6, Matthew 27:4, Psalms 26:6, Matthew 27:4, 2 Corinthians 5:21
25And the entire people responded by saying, “May his blood be upon us and upon our children.”
Joshua 2:19, Joshua 2:19, Acts 5:28, Acts 5:28, Acts 7:52
26Then he released Barabbas to them. But Jesus, having been scourged, he handed over to them, so that he would be crucified.
Isaiah 53:5, Isaiah 53:5, John 19:1, John 19:1, Mark 15:15
27Then the soldiers of the procurator, taking Jesus up to the praetorium, gathered the entire cohort around him.
John 18:28, John 18:33, John 18:28, John 18:33, Acts 10:1
28And stripping him, they put a scarlet cloak around him.
Luke 23:11, Mark 15:17, John 19:2, John 19:5, Luke 23:11
29And plaiting a crown of thorns, they placed it on his head, with a reed in his right hand. And genuflecting before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews.”
Isaiah 53:3, Isaiah 53:3, Matthew 20:19, Matthew 20:19, Psalms 69:19
30And spitting on him, they took the reed and struck his head.
Isaiah 50:6, Isaiah 50:6, Matthew 26:67, Matthew 26:67, Isaiah 53:7
31And after they had mocked him, they stripped him of the cloak, and clothed him with his own garments, and they led him away to crucify him.
Isaiah 53:7, Isaiah 53:7, 1 Kings 21:13, 1 Kings 21:10, Acts 7:58
32But as they were going out, they came upon a man of Cyrene, named Simon, whom they compelled to take up his cross.
Mark 15:21, Mark 15:21, Luke 23:26, Matthew 16:24, Luke 23:26
33And they arrived at the place which is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
John 19:17, John 19:19, Mark 15:22, Mark 15:32, John 19:17
34And they gave him wine to drink, mixed with gall. And when he had tasted it, he refused to drink it.
Psalms 69:21, Psalms 69:21, Mark 15:23, Mark 15:23, Matthew 27:48
35Then, after they had crucified him, they divided his garments, casting lots, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying: “They divided my garments among them, and over my vestment they cast lots.”
Psalms 22:18, Psalms 22:18, Mark 15:24, Mark 15:32, Mark 15:24
36And sitting down, they observed him.
Matthew 27:54, Matthew 27:54, Mark 15:39, Mark 15:44, Mark 15:39
37And they set his accusation above his head, written as: This is Jesus, king of the Jews.
Luke 23:38, Mark 15:26, John 19:19, John 19:22, Luke 23:38
38Then two robbers were crucified with him: one on the right and one on the left.
John 19:18, John 19:18, Isaiah 53:12, Luke 23:32, Luke 23:33
39But those passing by blasphemed him, shaking their heads,
Psalms 109:25, Psalms 109:25, Lamentations 1:12, Lamentations 1:12, Job 16:4
40and saying: “Ah, so you would destroy the temple of God and in three days rebuild it! Save your own self. If you are the Son of God, descend from the cross.”
Matthew 26:61, Matthew 26:61, John 2:19, John 2:22, Matthew 4:6
41And similarly, the leaders of the priests, with the scribes and the elders, mocking him, said:
Psalms 35:26, Psalms 35:26, Luke 22:52, Psalms 22:12, Psalms 22:13
42“He saved others; he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
John 1:49, John 1:49, Matthew 27:37, Matthew 27:37, John 12:13
43He trusted in God; so now, let God free him, if he wills him. For he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’ ”
Psalms 22:8, Psalms 22:8, John 10:36, John 10:36, John 10:30
44Then, the robbers who were crucified with him also reproached him with the very same thing.
Mark 15:32, Luke 23:39, Luke 23:43, Matthew 27:38, Mark 15:32
45Now from the sixth hour, there was darkness over the entire earth, even until the ninth hour.
Amos 8:9, Amos 8:9, Mark 15:33, Mark 15:34, Mark 15:33
46And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: “Eli, Eli, lamma sabacthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?”
Psalms 22:1, Psalms 22:1, Hebrews 5:7, Hebrews 5:7, Isaiah 53:10
47Then certain ones who were standing and listening there said, “This man calls upon Elijah.”
Malachi 4:5, Malachi 4:5, Mark 15:35, Mark 15:36, Mark 15:35
48And one of them, running quickly, took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he set it on a reed and he gave it to him to drink.
Psalms 69:21, Psalms 69:21, Matthew 27:34, John 19:29, John 19:30
49Yet truly, the others said, “Wait. Let us see whether Elijah will come to free him.”
50Then Jesus, crying out again with a loud voice, gave up his life.
John 19:30, John 19:30, Luke 23:46, Isaiah 53:9, Isaiah 53:12
51And behold, the veil of the temple was torn into two parts, from top to bottom. And the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split apart.
Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 10:22, Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 10:22, Mark 15:38
52And the tombs were opened. And many bodies of the saints, which had been sleeping, arose.
Isaiah 26:19, Isaiah 26:19, 1 Thessalonians 4:14, 1 Thessalonians 4:14, John 5:25
53And going out from the tombs, after his resurrection, they went into the holy city, and they appeared to many.
Revelation 11:2, Matthew 4:5, Isaiah 48:2, Revelation 11:2, Matthew 4:5
54Now the centurion and those who were with him, guarding Jesus, having seen the earthquake and the things that were done, were very fearful, saying: “Truly, this was the Son of God.”
Mark 15:39, Matthew 27:36, Mark 15:39, Matthew 27:36, Matthew 27:43
55And in that place, there were many women, at a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him.
Luke 8:2, Luke 8:3, Luke 8:2, Luke 8:3, Luke 23:48
56Among these were Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
John 19:25, John 19:25, Mark 16:9, Mark 15:47, Mark 16:1
57Then, when evening had arrived, a certain wealthy man from Arimathea, named Joseph, arrived, who himself was also a disciple of Jesus.
John 19:38, John 19:42, John 19:38, John 19:42, Mark 15:42
58This man approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered the body to be released.
Mark 15:44, Mark 15:46, Luke 23:52, Luke 23:53, Mark 15:44
59And Joseph, taking the body, wrapped it in a clean finely-woven linen cloth,
60and he placed it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of a rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and he went away.
Isaiah 53:9, Isaiah 53:9, Matthew 27:66, Matthew 28:2, Matthew 27:66
61Now Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulcher.
Matthew 27:56, Matthew 28:1, Matthew 27:56, Matthew 28:1
62Then the next day, which is after the Preparation day, the leaders of the priests and the Pharisees went to Pilate together,
Mark 15:42, Mark 15:42, John 19:14, John 19:14, John 19:42
63saying: “Lord, we have remembered that this seducer said, while he was still alive, ‘After three days, I will rise again.’
Luke 9:22, Luke 9:22, Matthew 16:21, Matthew 16:21, Matthew 20:19
64Therefore, order the sepulcher to be guarded until the third day, lest perhaps his disciples may come and steal him, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ And this last error would be worse than the first.”
Matthew 28:13, Matthew 28:13, Matthew 12:45, Matthew 12:45
65Pilate said to them: “You have a guard. Go, guard it as you know how.”
Matthew 27:66, Matthew 27:66, Matthew 28:11, Matthew 28:15, Matthew 28:11
66Then, going out, they secured the sepulcher with guards, sealing the stone.
Daniel 6:17, Daniel 6:17, 2 Timothy 2:19, Matthew 27:60, Matthew 28:2
