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^[1] with the elders and scribes and even the "whole council"? Who was that council?^[2] 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.^[3] 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)".^[4]
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)^[5] the ochlo Oχλος "the crowd, mob". Pilate feared another revolt.
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^[6], casting lots upon them, what every man should take."
V25 "third hour, and they crucified him."

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.^[7]
Pharisees did not believe he was king of the Kingdom of God for they denied the nature of pure Religio for they were wise in their own eyes..
Herod Antipas may have also believed he was king which is why they became friends.
The professional soldiers working for Herod did not like Jesus being the King for there was to be no professional army (calvary).
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.^[10]
V36 Wine with myrrh again

Trial by the Sanhedrin

[1] And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation^[1] with the elders and scribes and the whole council^[2], 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?^[11] 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 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^[6], 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.^[7]^[8]

[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?^[9]

[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^[12] , 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^[13] 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.
