15 And as soon as it was boker, the Rashei Hakohanim (the Chief Priests) with the Zekenim and Sofrim (Scribes) and [the] whole Sanhedrin, having performed the akedah (binding) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, led [him] away and handed [him] over to Pilate. [BERESHIS 22:9]

And Pilate questioned Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Are you the Melech HaYehudim? And, in reply, he says, You say so.

And the Rashei Hakohanim were accusing Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach [of] many things.

And Pilate again questioned him, saying, Do you not answer anything? Look how many things they accuse you [of].

But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach no longer answered anything, so Pilate was astounded. [YESHAYAH 53:7]

Now [at] every Chag he was releasing to them one prisoner for whom they were making bakosha (request).

Now there was the one being called Bar-Abba, who had been imprisoned with his fellow insurrectionists and who, at the time of the Mered (Revolt, Uprising), had committed retzach (murder).

So the crowd came and began to ask Pilate to do for them just as in the past was his custom.

But Pilate answered them, saying, Do you wish [that] I should release to you the Melech HaYehudim?

10 For Pilate knew that because of kinah (envy) the Rashei Hakohanim had handed him over to him.

11 But the Rashei Hakohanim incited the crowd that Pilate should instead release Bar-Abba to them.

12 But Pilate, in reply again, was saying to them, What then do you wish [that] I should do with the one whom you call the Melech HaYehudim?

13 And again they cried out, Let him be talui al HaEtz (being hanged on the Tree)! [DEVARIM 21:23]

14 But Pilate was saying to them, Why? What ra’ah has he committed? But they all the more cried out, Let him be talui al HaEtz (being hanged on the Tree)! [DEVARIM 21:23]

15 So Pilate, desiring to placate the crowd, released to them Bar-Abba, and handed over Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to be scourged [with the flagellum] and to be talui al HaEtz (to be hanged on the Tree, DEVARIM 21:23).

16 And the chaiyalim (soldiers) led away Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach into the courtyard, which is [the] Praetorium, the governor’s headquarters, and they called together [the] whole cohort.

17 And they clothe him in [royal] purple and place upon him a keter (crown) of thorns that they had woven together.

18 And they began to greet him, Hail, Melech HaYehudim!

19 And they were striking him [on] the rosh with a staff and they were spitting on him and bending their knees and bowing down before him. [TEHILLIM 22:8,17]

20 After mocking him, they stripped him of [royal] purple and clothed him in his garments. And they lead him out that they might make him be talui al HaEtz (being hanged on the Tree). [DEVARIM 21:23]

21 And a certain Shimon from Cyrene was passing by, who was coming in from [the] countryside. He was the father of Alexander and Rufus. The chaiyalim (soldiers) requisition him in order that he carry Moshiach’s Etz. [DEVARIM 21:23; YESHAYAH 53:4-5]

22 And they bring Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to a place called Gulgotha, which means, being translated, Place of the Skull.

23 And they were giving to him yayin having been mixed with myrrh, but this one did not take it. [TEHILLIM 69:22 (21); MISHLE 31:6]

24 And they hanged Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach on HaEtz and YICHALLEKU VEGADAI (they divide the garments) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, and VAPPILU GORAL (they cast lots) for them, to decide what each might take. [TEHILLIM 22:19 (18)]

25 Now it was [the] third hour when they nailed and hanged Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach on HAETZ. [DEVARIM 21:23]

26 And the inscription of the charge against him was inscribed above his rosh, Melech HaYehudim.

27 And with him they also nailed, each to his own etz, shnei shodedim, one on [the] right, one on [the] left of him.

28 [And the Kitvei Hakodesh was fulfilled, VES POSHEIM NIMNAH (and with lawless persons he was numbered YESHAYAH 53:12).]

29 And the ones passing by were reviling him and shaking their heads and saying, Ha! The one bringing churban on the Beis HaMikdash and rebuilding [it] in shlosha yamim, [TEHILLIM 22:7; 109:25]

30 Save yourself! Come down from the etz!

31 Likewise, also, the Rashei Hakohanim with the Sofrim were also mocking him, saying, He saved others, but himself he is not able to save. [TEHILLIM 22:7]

32 Let the Moshiach, let Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach of Yisroel, let [him] come down now from the etz, in order that we may see and have emunah! And the ones having been hanged on the etz on either side of him were reproaching him. [Mk 8:31]

33 And when the sixth hour came [high noon], it became choshech over kol haaretz until [the] ninth hour. [AMOS 8:9]

34 And at the ninth hour, he cried out in a kol gadol (loud voice), Eloi, Eloi lamah sabachthani?‖which means, being translated, ELI ELI LAMAH AZAVTANI? (My G-d, my G-d, why have you forsaken me? [TEHILLIM 22:1])

35 And some of the ones having been standing nearby and having heard, were saying, Hinei! He calls for Eliyahu HaNavi!

36 And someone having run and having filled a sponge with CHOMETZ (vinegar TEHILLIM 69:21), and having placed it on a staff, gave a drink to him, saying, Leave him alone. Let us see if Eliyahu Hanavi comes to take him down.

37 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, having uttered a kol gadol (loud voice) and having breathed his last, expired.

38 And the Parochet in the Heikhal was torn in two from top to bottom.

39 And the centurion, having stood nearby opposite him, and having seen that he expired this way, said Beemes (actually, in truth), this man was the Ben HaElohim!

40 And there were also nashim (women) looking on from a distance, among whom [were] Miryam from Magdala, and Miryam the Em of the younger Yaakov and of Yosi, and Shlomit. [TEHILLIM 38:11]

41 They were with Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach in the Galil and they had been following him [as talmidat] and serving him, and there were many other Jewish women who, with Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, had made their aliyah leregel (pilgrimage) up to Yerushalayim.

42 And already, erev (evening) fast approaching, vibahlt (since) it was Preparation Day, which is the day before Shabbos,

43 Yosef of Ramatayim, a member of the Sanhedrin and a man of chashivut (prominence) there, a man who was also himself looking forward to the Malchut Hashem, had the bold chozek to go into Pilate and ask for the gufat Yehoshua.

44 And Pilate was amazed that Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was already niftar (deceased), and Pilate summoned the centurion to question him whether Yehoshua was niftar already.

45 And having found out from the centurion, he gave the geviyah (body) to Yosef. [BERESHIS 47:18]

46 And having bought linen cloth tachrichim (shrouds) and having taken Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach down, he wrapped him in the tachrichim (shrouds) and placed him in a kever which had been cut from rock, and he rolled a stone against the entrance of the kever.

47 And Miryam of Magdala and Miryam the Em of Yosi were observing [T.N. as chevra kadesha shomrim eyewitnesses] of where Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach had been laid.

15 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.

And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.

But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.

14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, The King Of The Jews.

27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.

36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.

37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.

39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.

42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.

Jésus devant le gouverneur romain

15 Dès le matin, les chefs des prêtres tinrent conseil avec les anciens, les spécialistes de la loi et tout le sanhédrin. Après avoir attaché Jésus, ils l'emmenèrent et le livrèrent à Pilate. Pilate l'interrogea: «Es-tu le roi des Juifs?» Jésus lui répondit: «Tu le dis.» Les chefs des prêtres portaient contre lui beaucoup d'accusations. Pilate l'interrogea de nouveau: «Ne réponds-tu rien? Vois tous les témoignages qu'ils portent contre toi.» Mais Jésus ne répondit plus rien, ce qui étonna Pilate.

A chaque fête, il relâchait un prisonnier, celui que le peuple réclamait. Il y avait en prison le dénommé Barabbas avec ses complices, pour un meurtre qu'ils avaient commis lors d'une émeute. La foule se mit à demander à grands cris ce qu'il avait l’habitude de leur accorder. Pilate leur répondit: «Voulez-vous que je vous relâche le roi des Juifs?» 10 En effet, il savait que c'était par jalousie que les chefs des prêtres avaient fait arrêter Jésus. 11 Cependant, les chefs des prêtres excitèrent la foule afin que Pilate leur relâche plutôt Barabbas. 12 Pilate reprit la parole et leur dit: «Que voulez-vous donc que je fasse de celui que vous appelez le roi des Juifs?» 13 Ils crièrent de nouveau: «Crucifie-le!» 14 «Quel mal a-t-il fait?» leur dit Pilate. Ils crièrent encore plus fort: «Crucifie-le!» 15 Voulant satisfaire la foule, Pilate leur relâcha Barabbas et, après avoir fait fouetter Jésus, il le livra à la crucifixion.

16 Les soldats conduisirent Jésus à l'intérieur de la cour, c'est-à-dire dans le prétoire, et ils rassemblèrent toute la troupe. 17 Ils lui mirent un habit pourpre et posèrent sur sa tête une couronne d'épines qu'ils avaient tressée. 18 Puis ils se mirent à le saluer: «Salut, roi des Juifs!» 19 Ils lui frappaient la tête avec un roseau, crachaient sur lui et se mettaient à genoux pour se prosterner devant lui. 20 Après s'être ainsi moqués de lui, ils lui enlevèrent l’habit pourpre, lui remirent ses vêtements et l'emmenèrent pour le crucifier.

Crucifixion et mort de Jésus

21 Ils forcèrent un passant qui revenait des champs à porter la croix de Jésus. C’était Simon de Cyrène, le père d'Alexandre et de Rufus. 22 Ils conduisirent Jésus à l'endroit appelé Golgotha, ce qui signifie «lieu du crâne». 23 Ils lui donnèrent [à boire] du vin mêlé de myrrhe, mais il ne le prit pas.

24 Ils le crucifièrent, puis ils se partagèrent ses vêtements en tirant au sort pour savoir ce que chacun aurait. 25 C'était neuf heures du matin quand ils le crucifièrent. 26 L'inscription indiquant le motif de sa condamnation portait ces mots: «Le roi des Juifs». 27 Ils crucifièrent avec lui deux brigands, l'un à sa droite et l'autre à sa gauche. 28 [Ainsi fut accompli ce que dit l'Ecriture: Il a été compté parmi les criminels.[a]]

29 Les passants l'insultaient et secouaient la tête en disant: «Hé! toi qui détruis le temple et qui le reconstruis en trois jours, 30 sauve-toi toi-même, descends de la croix!» 31 Les chefs des prêtres, avec les spécialistes de la loi, se moquaient aussi entre eux et disaient: «Il en a sauvé d'autres et il ne peut pas se sauver lui-même! 32 Que le Messie, le roi d'Israël, descende maintenant de la croix, afin que nous voyions et que nous croyions!» Ceux qui étaient crucifiés avec lui l'insultaient aussi.

33 A midi, il y eut des ténèbres sur tout le pays, jusqu'à trois heures de l'après-midi. 34 Et à trois heures de l'après-midi, Jésus s'écria d'une voix forte: «Eloï, Eloï, lama sabachthani?» – ce qui signifie: Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, pourquoi m'as-tu abandonné?[b] 35 Quelques-uns de ceux qui étaient là, après l'avoir entendu, disaient: «Voici qu'il appelle Elie.» 36 Et l'un d'eux courut remplir une éponge de vinaigre; il la fixa à un roseau et lui donna à boire en disant: «Laissez donc, voyons si Elie viendra le descendre de là.»

37 Cependant, Jésus poussa un grand cri et expira. 38 Le voile du temple[c] se déchira en deux, depuis le haut jusqu'en bas. 39 Quand l’officier romain qui se tenait en face de Jésus [entendit son cri et] le vit expirer de cette manière, il dit: «Cet homme était vraiment le Fils de Dieu.»

40 Il y avait aussi des femmes qui regardaient de loin. Parmi elles étaient Marie de Magdala, Marie, mère de Jacques le jeune et de Joses, ainsi que Salomé, 41 qui le suivaient et le servaient lorsqu'il était en Galilée, et beaucoup d’autres femmes qui étaient aussi montées avec lui à Jérusalem.

Mise au tombeau du corps de Jésus

42 Le soir venu, comme c'était le jour de la préparation, c'est-à-dire la veille du sabbat, 43 Joseph d'Arimathée arriva. C’était un membre éminent du conseil, qui attendait lui aussi le royaume de Dieu. Il osa se rendre vers Pilate pour demander le corps de Jésus. 44 Pilate s'étonna qu'il soit déjà mort; il fit venir l’officier et lui demanda si Jésus était mort depuis longtemps. 45 Une fois renseigné par l’officier, il fit remettre le corps à Joseph. 46 Joseph acheta un drap de lin, descendit Jésus de la croix, l'enveloppa dans le drap de lin et le déposa dans un tombeau taillé dans la roche. Puis il roula une pierre à l'entrée du tombeau. 47 Marie de Magdala et Marie la mère de Joses regardaient où l’on déposait Jésus.
