Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:53
And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and there come together with him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.JESUS' TRIAL BEFORE THE SANHEDRINThis was the second of Jesus' six trials, the first having been the arraignment before Annas, perhaps in the same palace where apartments for both Annas and Caiaphas were located around the courtyard. For detailed account of the entire six trials of Jesus, see my Commentary on Matthew, Matthew 26:57ff. The meeting of the Sanhedrin was... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:54
And Peter had followed him afar off, even within, into the court of the high priest; and he was sitting with the officers, and warming himself in the light of the fire.The use of the past perfect tense, "had followed," shows that Mark's account here is retrogressive in part. Having introduced the illegal, all-night convention of the Sanhedrin, he returned to relate Peter's denial earlier that night in the court of the high priest. It is likely that this "court" was the official residence of... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:55
Now the chief priests and the whole council sought witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found it not.What happened to their traitor-witness, Judas? During the night, Judas had heard of developments, and the next morning, after Jesus was bound over to the governor, he flung the money at the feet of the high priest, confessed his sin of betraying innocent blood; and, from the total lack of any testimony from Judas at the trials, it may be assumed that he refused to aid the campaign... read more

For many bare false witness against him, and their witness agreed not together.The sacred religious court of the Jewish nation engaged themselves all night in the subornation of perjury, but despite this, no usable testimony against Jesus was uncovered. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:57
And there stood up certain, and bare false witness against him, saying, We heard him say, I wilt destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.This testimony was untruthful. Jesus actually said, "(You) destroy this temple (referring to his body), and in three days I will raise it up (that is, rise from the dead)" (John 2:19). In context, Jesus' words were a prediction that the religious leaders would take his life and that he would rise... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:60
And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?Up to this point, the conclave of Jesus' foes had nothing. No capital charge against the Lord could even be alleged, much less proved. It was a most frustrating night for the religious leaders. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Mark 14:61
But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and saith unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?Answered nothing ... Jesus did not need to reply. Everyone knew that no offense had been proved against Jesus, Caiaphas himself being painfully aware of this.Again the high priest asked him ... This is a reference to repeated questions regarding Christ's identity. In Mark's word "again," it is evident that more than one question and more than one reply... read more
