The Good News According to Mark, Chapter 15
{15:1} Immediately in the morning the chief [1>]Kohanim[<1], with
the Zakenim and [2>]Sofrim[<2], and the whole council, held a
consultation, and bound Yeshua, and carried him away, and delivered
him up to Pilate. {15:2} Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the
Yehudim?"
He answered, "So you say."
{15:3} The chief [3>]Kohanim[<3] accused him of many things. {15:4}
Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer? See how many things they
testify against you!"
{15:5} But Yeshua made no further answer, so that Pilate marveled.
{15:6} Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner,
whom they asked of him. {15:7} There was one called Bar-Abba, bound
with those who had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had
committed murder. {15:8} The multitude, crying aloud, began to ask him
to do as he always did for them. {15:9} Pilate answered them, saying,
"Do you want me to release to you the King of the Yehudim?" {15:10}
For he perceived that for envy the chief [4>]Kohanim[<4] had delivered
him up. {15:11} But the chief [5>]Kohanim[<5] stirred up the
multitude, that he should release Bar-Abba to them instead. {15:12}
Pilate again asked them, "What then should I do to him whom you call
the King of the Yehudim?"
{15:13} They cried out again, "Crucify him!"
{15:14} Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has he done?"
But they cried out exceedingly, "Crucify him!"
{15:15} Pilate, wishing to please the multitude, released Bar-Abba
to them, and handed over Yeshua, when he had flogged him, to be
crucified. {15:16} The soldiers led him away within the court, which
is the Praetorium; and they called together the whole cohort. {15:17}
They clothed him with purple, and weaving a crown of thorns, they put
it on him. {15:18} They began to salute him, "Hail, King of the
Yehudim!" {15:19} They struck his head with a reed, and spat on him,
and bowing their knees, did homage to him. {15:20} When they had
mocked him, they took the purple off of him, and put his own garments
on him. They led him out to crucify him. {15:21} They compelled one
passing by, coming from the country, Shim`on of Cyrene, the father of
Alexander and Rufus, to go with them, that he might bear his cross.
{15:22} They brought him to the place called Gulgolta, which is, being
interpreted, "The place of a skull." {15:23} They offered him wine
mixed with myrrh to drink, but he didn't take it.
{15:24} Crucifying him, they parted his garments among them, casting
lots on them, what each should take. {15:25} It was the third hour,
and they crucified him. {15:26} The superscription of his accusation
was written over him, "THE KING OF THE YEHUDIM." {15:27} With him they
crucified two robbers; one on his right hand, and one on his left.
{15:28} The Scripture was fulfilled, which says, "He was numbered with
transgressors."
{15:29} Those who passed by blasphemed him, wagging their heads, and
saying, "Ha! You who destroy the temple, and build it in three days,
{15:30} save yourself, and come down from the cross!"
{15:31} Likewise, also the chief [6>]Kohanim[<6] mocking among
themselves with the [7>]Sofrim[<7] said, "He saved others. He can't
save himself. {15:32} Let the Messiah, the King of Yisra'el, now come
down from the cross, that we may see and believe him." Those who were
crucified with him insulted him.
{15:33} When the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the
whole land until the ninth hour. {15:34} At the ninth hour Yeshua
cried with a loud voice, saying, "Elohi, Elohi, lama shavakhtani?"
which is, being interpreted, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken
me?"
{15:35} Some of those who stood by, when they heard it, said,
"Behold, he is calling Eliyah."
{15:36} One ran, and filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a
reed, and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Let him be. Let's see
whether Eliyah comes to take him down."
{15:37} Yeshua cried out with a loud voice, and gave up the spirit.
{15:38} The veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the
bottom. {15:39} When the centurion, who stood by opposite him, saw
that he cried out like this and breathed his last, he said, "Truly
this man was the Son of God!"
{15:40} There were also women watching from afar, among whom were
both Miryam from Magdala, and Miryam the mother of Ya`akov the less
and of Yosi, and Shalomit; {15:41} who, when he was in the Galil,
followed him, and served him; and many other women who came up with
him to Yerushalayim.
{15:42} When evening had now come, because it was the Preparation
Day, that is, the day before the Shabbat, {15:43} Yosef of Ramatayim,
a prominent council member who also himself was looking for the
Kingdom of God, came. He boldly went in to Pilate, and asked for
Yeshua#s body. {15:44} Pilate marveled if he were already dead; and
summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he had been dead long.
{15:45} When he found out from the centurion, he granted the body to
Yosef. {15:46} He bought a linen cloth, and taking him down, wound him
in the linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb which had been cut out of a
rock. He rolled a stone against the door of the tomb. {15:47} Miryam
from Magdala and Miryam, the mother of Yosi, saw where he was laid.
