| '''V12-14''' What will ye the have me do with He that is called the '''[[King_of_the_Jews]]?''' Jesus is not just '''called''' the king of the Jews. The word translated "called" is λεγω lego, is a "primary verb; properly, to "lay" forth, i.e. (figuratively) relate (in words [usually of systematic or set discourse". Other words like [[2036]] epo to just say or speak and [[5346]] premise would mean to just say or speak and generally just refers to an individual expression or speech respectively. The author chose not to use ''reho'' [[4483]] nor ''laleo'' [[2980]] meaning merely ''to speak, tell, or utter''. <Br> It was these false priests of [[public religion]] who enjoyeď the power that came to them through the [[legal charity]] of the [[social welfare]] state who called out "Crucify him"!

| The temple would be destroyed by a Caesar professed by the pharisees. It would burnt the temple with all its records, loot its trasury and enslave the people, despursing them. <Br>They had no protection because as the [[synagogue of Satan]] the had abandoned [[the way]] of the [[Moses]], prophets, and [[Christ]] for the [[corban]] of [[Babylon]] and [[Nimrod]].
|-
| The [[kingdom of God]] was [[appoint|appointed]] to other Jews who eventually were called [[Christians]]. The descendents of those Jews in denial can repent and seek the kingdom of God. The people of the [[modern Church]] who have gone the way of [[benefactors]] who [[exercise authority]] one over the other may also [[repent]] and gather to build the temple made without hands, of ''living stone''. Trying to duplicate the temple we see at the time of Christ is merely duplicating the sin of the [[Nicolaitan]] and the ''[[Balaam|error of Balaam]]''.

| '''V39''' Was the same centurion of [[Matthew 8]]<Ref>“‭5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, ‭6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. ‭7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. ‭8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. ‭9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ‭10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. ‭11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. ‭12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ‭13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.” [[Matthew 8]]:5-13</Ref> and Luke 7<Ref>“‭6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof: ‭7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. ‭8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ‭9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. ‭10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.” [[Luke 7]]:6-10</Ref><Br>Why was Christianity so popular with some Roman soldiers and Christ himself seemed to be hated by and mocked by other soldiers as we see in Matthew 27<Ref>“‭26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified. ‭27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers. ‭28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe. ‭29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews! ‭30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head. ‭31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.” [[Matthew 27]]:26-31</Ref> in [[Luke 23]]<Ref>“‭36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar, ‭37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.” [[Luke 23]]:36-37</Ref> and even in [[John 19]]<Ref>“‭2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe, ‭3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.” [[John 19]]:2-3</Ref>?<Br>Being a soldier drew two kinds of people. There are those with a sense of duty, responsibility and self sacrifice. And the there are those professional soldiers who are in love with power, oppression, and their pension.

| The professional soldiers working for [[Herod]] did not like [[Jesus]] being the King.
| Jesus did not come to bring peace<Ref name="eirene">{{1515}}</Ref> but division.<Ref>“‭34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. ‭35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. ‭36 And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household. ‭37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. ‭38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. ‭39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. ‭40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.” Matthew 10:34-40</Ref> <Br>The [[conflict]] in the [[world]] will be centered upon the distinction seen between the [[logos|word]] and [[doctrine of Jesus]] and the [[doctrines of men]] seen in the [[corban]] of [[Herod]] and the [[Pharisees]]. The [[leaven]] of their [[ideology]] and [[covetous practices]] not only divides them from the [[divine will]] but from each other.

| There was no king sitting on the Throne in [[Jerusalem]].

| [[Kingdom of God]]
| But that [[one form of government]], like [[capitalism]] does not establish a morality of [[righteousness]] but only allows [[choice]].

''[[Joseph of Arimathea]]'' was a smart man of a high rank and would know that  [[Pontius Pilate]] was a man of law and would need to verify before releasing the body.

Comments
Matthew 27: 11-60 covers the trial of Jesus. Also Luke 23, and John 18 (John_18#Jesus_Faces_Annas_and_Caiaphas, John_18#The_High_Priest_Questions_Jesus, John_18#Jesus_Before_Pilate, and John_18#My_Kingdom_Is_Not_of_This_World
V1 Why were the priests so threatened by the Doctrine and authority of Jesus?
Why did they need to seek the support in consultation[2] with the elders and scribes and even the "whole council"?
Who was that council?[3]
Was there another group of seventy operating differently than that "whole council"?
And why before Pontius Pilate?
V2-5 What was the significance of not answering and offering no defense?
V6-9 pardons and grace to appeas the people. V9 Pontius Pilate fully admits Jesus is the King_of_the_Jews.
V10-11 Pontius Pilate knew these men were wicked and envious and had delivered their king out of envy.[4] But the people were moved and manipulate by those corrupt men in their government because of their "ill-will (as detraction), i.e. jealousy (spite)".[5]
V12-14 What will ye the have me do with He that is called the King_of_the_Jews? Jesus is not just called the king of the Jews. The word translated "called" is λεγω lego, is a "primary verb; properly, to "lay" forth, i.e. (figuratively) relate (in words [usually of systematic or set discourse". Other words like 2036 epo to just say or speak and 5346 premise would mean to just say or speak and generally just refers to an individual expression or speech respectively. The author chose not to use reho 4483 nor laleo 2980 meaning merely to speak, tell, or utter.
It was these false priests of public religion who enjoyeď the power that came to them through the legal charity of the social welfare state who called out "Crucify him"!
V15-20 Why was Pilate "willing to content" (satisfy)[6] the ochlo Oχλος "the crowd, mob". Pilate feared another revolt.
19 These soldiers smote and spit and "bowing their knees worshipped(prosekynoun)[7] him." but the word worship in the text is προσεκύνουν (prosekynoun) which only appears in this text and not προσκυνέω (proskuneó) which is what we see everywhere else. I think what is meant is their their knees worshipped in the sense they bowed or bent their knees in a clearly mocking way.
V21 Simon a Cyrenian was the father of Rufus who may be mentioned in Romans 16:13: "chosen in the Lord".
V22 Golgatha was the common place of execution preprepared for crucifixion. And sour wine as a common drink of soldiers. Mant see this was "a kind of stupefying liquor, a strong narcotic, made of the sour wine of the country, mingled with bitter herbs, and mercifully administered to dull the sense of pain."
V23 "drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not."
V24 "they parted his garments[8], casting lots upon them, what every man should take."
V25 "third hour, and they crucified him."
v26 The superscription was written THE KING OF THE JEWS.[9][10]
V27 Two theives
Mark 15:28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
The Greek word "anomos" means departing from the law, or violator of law "transgressors" 459 ~ἄνομος~ anomos \@an’-om-os\@ from 1 (as a negative particle) and 3551; adj AV-without law 4, transgressor 2, wicked 2, lawless 1, unlawful 1; 10
1) destitute of (the Mosaic) law
1a) of the Gentiles
2) departing from the law, a violator of the law, lawless, wicked
The Hebrew pasha‘ is said to mean to rebel, transgress, be in revolt. 06586 ^עשׁפ^ pasha‘ \@paw-shah’\@ a primitive root [identical with 06585 through the idea of expansion]; v; AV-transgress 17, transgressor 9, rebelled 6, revolt 6, offended 1, transgression 1, trespassed 1; 41
1) to rebel, transgress, revolt
1a) (Qal)
1a1) to rebel, revolt
1a2) to transgress
1b) (Niphal) to be rebelled against
If Jesus was just a criminal the issue of being the king, and therefore the Messiah becomes less significant. Jesus and probably the other two who were crucified and also Jesus BarAbbas were all probably revolutionaries. Those who claimed Jesus was revolting denied he was king.
They railed and mocked
V29-32 the came a greater Darkness. V33
V34 In Matthew 27:46 the words Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? we know both "Eli" and "Eloi", are Hebrew words, and signify the same; and are both used in Psalms 22:1[11], being interpreted by some as, my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? 
Isaiah 53:12 "Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors."
Points of understanding
Pontius Pilate believed and proclaimed Jesus was the king.[9]
Pharisees did not believe he was rightful king of the Kingdom of God for they denied the nature of pure Religion for they were wise in their own eyes. Their eyes were darkened and while the proclaimed and confesses Moses with their lips their heart was far from and what he taught.
Herod Antipas may have also believed Jesus was the rightful king, hence his giving of the gorgeous robe.[8] So, Herod Antipas and Pontius Pilate were both in agreement about Jesus being the king which is why they became friends.
The professional soldiers working for Herod Antipas did not like Jesus being the King for there was to be no professional army (calvary)[12] in the kingdom of God.
There was "no king" sitting on the Throne in Jerusalem.
Kingdom of God Was a government of the people, for the people and by the people.[13]
V36 Wine with myrrh again rejected.
V38 What was the symbolism of the vail in the Old Testament? The Hebrew word for this Veil is poreketh[14] which is a word from פֶרֶךְ‎ perek meaning "harshness, severity, cruelty".
Here we see veil from the Greek word katapetasma[15] which is a vail that separated the Holy Place from the outer court, the other veiled the Holy of Holies from the Holy Place.
Theologian Timothy Johnson says that the tearing of the temple vail symbolized “the end of the old covenant of atonement through animal sacrifice and the beginning of a 'new covenant'”.
That of course is a popular belief but that is also utter nonsense void of understanding the logos of Moses.
The animal sacrifice was never about a mindless ritual of killing animals by blood letting any more than
casting your bread upon the water is about tossing unleavened bread into the lake.
The altars were never about piles of dead stone nor the burning carcases of sheep and cows.
It was about freewill offerings made by the people who have to take care of the needy of society in a daily ministration of pure religion.

It was about laying down a portion of your life through freewill offerings out of love of your fellow man.
It was about a social welfare of pure Religion that was not a snare and a trap that made the people human resources because such covetousness is idolatry.[16]
The temple would be destroyed by a Caesar professed by the pharisees. It would burnt the temple with all its records, loot its trasury and enslave the people, despursing them.
They had no protection because as the synagogue of Satan the had abandoned the way of the Moses, prophets, and Christ for the corban of Babylon and Nimrod.
The kingdom of God was appointed to other Jews who eventually were called Christians. The descendents of those Jews in denial can repent and seek the kingdom of God. The people of the modern Church who have gone the way of benefactors who exercise authority one over the other may also repent and gather to build the temple made without hands, of living stone. Trying to duplicate the temple we see at the time of Christ is merely duplicating the sin of the Nicolaitan and the error of Balaam.
Ezekiel 43:9-12 “‭9 Now let them put away their whoredom, and the carcases[17] of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever. ‭10 Thou son of man, shew the house(habbayiṯ HeyBeitYodTav הַבַּ֔יִת temple) to the house(BeitYodTav בֵּֽית־ house) of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities: and let them measure the pattern. ‭11 And if they be ashamed of all that they have done, shew them the form of the house, and the fashion thereof, and the goings out thereof, and the comings in thereof, and all the forms thereof, and all the ordinances[18] thereof, and all the forms[19] thereof, and all the laws[20] thereof: and write it in their sight, that they may keep the whole form thereof, and all the ordinances thereof, and do them. ‭12 This is the law of the house; Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law(תּוֹרַ֣ת tōwraṯ) of the house(habbayiṯ HeyBeitYodTav הַבַּ֔יִת temple). This is the law(תּוֹרַ֣ת tōwraṯ) of the house(habbayiṯ HeyBeitYodTav הַבַּ֔יִת temple); Upon the top of the mountain the whole limit thereof round about shall be most holy." (זאת this is תורת law הבית temple)
V39 Was the same centurion of Matthew 8[21] and Luke 7[22]
Why was Christianity so popular with some Roman soldiers and Christ himself seemed to be hated by and mocked by other soldiers as we see in Matthew 27[23] in Luke 23[24] and even in John 19[25]?
Being a soldier drew two kinds of people. There are those with a sense of duty, responsibility and self sacrifice. And the there are those professional soldiers who are in love with power, oppression, and their pension.
Jesus did not come to bring peace[26] but division.[27]
The conflict in the world will be centered upon the distinction seen between the word and doctrine of Jesus and the doctrines of men seen in the corban of Herod and the Pharisees. The leaven of their ideology and covetous practices not only divides them from the divine will but from each other.
Jesus' kingdom of God was an entirely different form of government. If some one were to lable its form it could be called a pure Republic in the tradition of the libera res publica.
But that one form of government, like capitalism does not establish a morality of righteousness but only allows choice. A divine morality only comes to those who will hear and see the whole truth of the full logos of Christ. You cannot leave out nor neglect parts of the Gospel of the kingdom[13] without preaching a lie.
V40-41 tells that there was not only Mary Magdalene[28] , and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;" but also "many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem." What were they doing in their ministering?
V43 Joseph of Arimathea, and honourable counseller[29], which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly[30] unto Pontius Pilate, and craved[31] the body of Jesus.
V44 Pontius Pilate was surprised that Jesus was dead already. Why?
V45 But he released the body by the testimony of the centurion. Did the centurion come with 'Joseph of Arimathea'? Was it the same "centurion" of faith, the one who just said, Truly this man was the Son of God And would have to testify as an eye witness. Joseph of Arimathea was a smart man of a high rank and would know that Pontius Pilate was a man of law and would need to verify before releasing the body.
Pontius Pilate had also issued the superscription that Jesus was the rightfull King_of_the_Jews
V46-47 verifies Jesus was placed in the tomb hewn out of a rock, and a large stone was placed over the door with two Mary's as witness.

Trial by the Sanhedrin

[1] And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation[2] with the elders and scribes and the whole council[3], and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

Thou sayest it

[2] And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews?[32] And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it.

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

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

[5] But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

Festival release

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

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

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

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

Delivered for envy

[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.

What will ye then 

[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.

Contenting the people

[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(prosekynoun)[7] 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.

Bear his cross

[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.

Received it not

[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[8], casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

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

The superscription

[26] And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.[9][10]

[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.

They railed

[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.

DARKNESS

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

Eloi Eloi

[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?[11]

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

Wine with myrrh

[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.

The veil

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

The soldier of faith

[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.

The women

[40] There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene[28] , 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.

The Passover preparation

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

[43] Joseph of Arimathaea, and honourable counseller, 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[33] 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[28] and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.

    1 Peter 2:9 "But ye [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:"

  11. 11.0 11.1 Psalms 22:1 ¶ My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?2] O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.3] But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.4] Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.5] They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded."
  12. Deuteronomy 17:16  "But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way."
  13. 13.0 13.1 Is the Bible about religion which it seldom mentions only once in a good way as Pure Religion or is it about governments and law including Natural Law?

  21. “‭5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, ‭6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. ‭7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. ‭8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. ‭9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ‭10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. ‭11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. ‭12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ‭13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.” Matthew 8:5-13
  22. “‭6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof: ‭7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed. ‭8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. ‭9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. ‭10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.” Luke 7:6-10
