Matthew 27:1-2 King James Version (KJV)
27 When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:
2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.
Matthew 27:1-2 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
27 And morning having come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so as to put him to death;
2 and having bound him, they did lead away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
These are my thoughts, please share yours.
1 This time they would put Jesus to death because unlike before them talking this time was at His trial. They had plotted many times before to put Jesus to death but God didn’t allow it to happen then because it was not time but now the time had come.
2 So at this point the decide to let Rome judge Him which means they wanted His entire movement to stomped out by Rome but Rome later one day would accept that they could not over throw the Faith.
