8(For this reason that field has been called the Field of Blood until today.)

10and they gave them for the potter’s field, just as the Lord directed me.”[#A quotation from various passages in Jeremiah including 18:2–6; 19:1–13; 32:6–15; see also Zech 11:12–13]
11So Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying, “Are you the king of the Jews?” And Jesus said, “You say so.”
12And when he was being accused by the chief priests and elders he answered nothing.[#Literally “in the him being accused”]
13Then Pilate said to him, “Do you not hear how many things they are testifying against you?”
14And he did not reply to him, not even with reference to one statement, so that the governor was very astonished.
15Now at each feast, the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd—the one whom they wanted.
16And at that time they had a notorious prisoner named Jesus Barabbas.[#Although many manuscripts omit “Jesus” here, it is so hard to explain why a scribe would have added it that the reading is probably original; #“Barabbas” means “son of the father” in Aramaic]
17So after they had assembled, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release for you—Jesus Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?”[#*Here “after” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“had assembled”); #Although many manuscripts omit “Jesus” here, it is so hard to explain why a scribe would have added it that the reading is probably original]
18(For he knew that they had handed him over because of envy.

22Pilate said to them, “What then should I do with Jesus, the one who is called Christ?” They all said, “Let him be crucified!”
23And he said, “Why? What wrong has he done?” But they began to shout even louder, saying, “Let him be crucified!”[#*The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to shout”)]
24So Pilate, when he saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but instead an uproar was developing, took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this man. You see to it!”[#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“saw”) which is understood as temporal; #*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“took”) has been translated as a finite verb; #Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun; #*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation]

41In the same way also the chief priests, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking him, saying,[#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation]

44And in the same way even the robbers who were crucified with him were reviling him.
45Now from the sixth hour, darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.
46And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani? ” (that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”)[#A quotation from Ps 22:1]

51And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth shook and the rocks were split.
52And the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised,
53and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.
54Now the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that took place, were extremely frightened, saying, “Truly this man was God’s Son!”[#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“saw”) which is understood as temporal]
55And there were many women there, observing from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, serving him,
56among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57Now when it was evening, a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph came, who also was a disciple of Jesus himself.
58This man approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

61Now Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.

63saying, “Sir, we remember that while that deceiver was still alive he said, ‘After three days I will rise.’[#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the participle (“alive”) which is understood as temporal]
64Therefore give orders that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come and steal him and tell the people, ‘He has been raised from the dead,’ and the last deception will be worse than the first.”[#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“come”) has been translated as a finite verb]
65Pilate said to them, “You have a guard of soldiers. Go, make it as secure as you know how.”[#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation]
