Webster - Mark - 15

15:1  And forthwith 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.

15:2  And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering, said to him, Thou sayest [it].

15:3  And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

15:4  And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they testify against thee.

15:5  But Jesus yet answered nothing: so that Pilate marveled.

15:6  Now at [that] feast he released to them one prisoner, whom they desired.

15:7  And there was [one] named Barabbas, [who lay] bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

15:8  And the multitude crying aloud, began to desire [him to do] as he had ever done to them.

15:9  But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release to you the King of the Jews?

15:10  (For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.)

15:11  But the chief priests moved the people that he should rather release Barabbas to them.

15:12  And Pilate answered, and said again to them, What will ye then that I shall do [to him] whom ye call the King of the Jews?

15:13  And they cried out again, Crucify him.

15:14  Then Pilate said to them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

15:15  And [so] Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas to them, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.

15:16  And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Pretorium; and they call together the whole band;

15:17  And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his [head],

15:18  And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

15:19  And they struck him on the head with a reed, and spit upon him, and bowing [their] knees, worshiped him.

15:20  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.

15:21  And they constrain one Simon, a Cyrenian, who was passing by, coming from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

15:22  And they bring him to the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

15:23  And they gave him to drink, wine mingled with myrrh: but he received [it] not.

15:24  And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

15:25  And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

15:26  And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

15:27  And with him they crucify two thieves, the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

15:28  And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

15:29  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,

15:30  Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

15:31  Likewise also the chief priests mocking, said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others, himself he cannot save.

15:32  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.

15:33  And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land, until the ninth hour.

15:34  And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama, sabacthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

15:35  And some of them that stood by, when they heard [it], said, Behold, he calleth Elijah.

15:36  And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.

15:37  And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and expired.

15:38  And the vail of the temple was rent in two, from the top to the bottom.

15:39  And when the centurion who stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and expired, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

15:40  There were also women looking on at a distance, among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger, and of Joses, and Salome;

15:41  Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him; and many other women who came with him to Jerusalem.

15:42  And now, when the evening was come, (because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath)

15:43  Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counselor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly to Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

15:44  And Pilate wondered if he was already dead: and calling the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

15:45  And when he knew [it] from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

15:46  And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped [him] in the linen, and laid him in a sepulcher which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the sepulcher.

15:47  And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses, beheld where he was laid.
