Mark 15:3-5

15:3 Then ¹  the chief priests began to accuse him repeatedly. 15:4 So Pilate asked him again, ²  “Have you nothing to say? See how many charges they are bringing against you!” 15:5 But Jesus made no further reply, so that Pilate was amazed.

Matthew 26:62-63

26:62 So ³  the high priest stood up and said to him, “Have you no answer? What is this that they are testifying against you?” 26:63 But Jesus was silent. The ⁴  high priest said to him, “I charge you under oath by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, ⁵  the Son of God.”

John 19:9-10

19:9 and he went back into the governor’s residence ⁶  and said to Jesus, “Where do you come from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. 19:10 So Pilate said, ⁷  “Do you refuse to speak to me? Don’t you know I have the authority ⁸  to release you, and to crucify you?” ⁹ 

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the narrative.

² tn Grk “Pilate asked him again, saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant and has not been translated.

³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the false testimony.

⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated.

⁵ tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”

⁶ tn Grk “into the praetorium.”

⁷ tn Grk “said to him.” The words “to him” are not translated because they are unnecessary in contemporary English style.

⁸ tn Or “the power.”

⁹ tn Grk “know that I have the authority to release you and the authority to crucify you.” Repetition of “the authority” is unnecessarily redundant English style.
