A:The trial of Jesus before the Sanhedrin is in the synoptic gospels: Matthew 26:57-66, Mark 14:53-64, Luke 22:66-71. In Matthew and Mark, the trial takes place soon after Jesus is arrested at midnight, but in Luke the priests wait until daybreak, since the Sanhedrin would never have met during hours of darkness to try Jesus.

John's Gospel does not have a trial before the Sanhedrin, but has Jesus taken first to the house of Annas, father-in-law to the high priest, who interrogated him alone. Then Jesus was taken to the house of the high priest, Caiaphas, who again interviewed Jesus alone.

The Sanhedrin trial of Jesus?

Where did they take Jesus on Friday Morning?

The synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) say that they took Jesus to the Sanhedrin for trial at 3:00 o'clock in the morning, then to Pontius Pilate at 6:00 o'clock. After his trial, he was taken to Calvary for crucifixion and placed on the cross at 9:00 o'clock.John's Gospel is in basic agreement, but the author recognised that the Sanhedrin would never have met during hours of darkness to try Jesus, resolving this by eliminating the first trial and merely having Jesus taken separately before Annas and then Caiaphas, before being taken to Pontius Pilate.


What trials did Jesus face before His death on the cross?

A:In the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), Jesus was tried before the Sanhedrin, or Jewish religious court, then taken to Pontius Pilate for trial before the Roman governor. The author of John's Gospel realised that the Sanhedrin would never have sat during the hours of darkness to try Jesus, so had Jesus taken to the house of Annas (John 18:13), who interrogated Jesus and then sent him to the house of his son-in-law Caiaphas (John 18:24), and then Jesus was taken to the hall of judgement to be tried by Pontius Pilate.


Jesus was put on trial during his lifetime?

Jesus was put on trial before the Roman governor Pilate.


Where was Jesus taken first for his trial?

His first trial was by Annas and then the High Priest Caiaphas after being sent to him by Annas - Caiaphas' father-in-law. This took place in the courtyard of the High Priest's house near the temple precincts. Next he was sent to the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, in his palace within the walls of the city. Realising that Jesus was innocent he passed the buck to Herod, the puppet King, as Jesus was a Galilean and therefore under Herod's jurisdiction. So the next trial took place in Herod's palace. Unfortunately for the religious leaders the death sentence was permitted only with the permission of Pilate. Finally Jesus was sent back to Pilate at his palace for the trial that would result in his crucifixion.


Where do you find the seven trial of Jesus in the Bible?

Nowhere. Jesus had many more than seven trials.


How did Jesus get killed?

He was publicly executed by crucifixion after a trial by the Jewish Sanhedrin judicial council, with the consent of the Roman governor. I thought that the sword by the Roman Solider killed him.


Why was Jesus' trial strange?

Jesus' trial, actually trials, were strange for a number of reasons. In the synoptic gospels, Jesus was first brought to trial before the Sanhedrin at 3 p'clock in the morning, but it is pointed out that the Sanhedrin could not have met in judgement during the hours of darkness. Pointedly, John's Gospel omits this trial, simply having Jesus brough separately before Annas then Caiaaphas. Pontius Pilate could never have allowed the Jews to bully him into finding Jesus guilty, as described in the Bible. Had he done so, he would have been relieved of his command and returned in disgrace. In spite of the gospels, it seems that there was no practice in Jerusalem of freeing one prisoner at the time of the Passover. however there was a Jewish tradition that at the time of Yom Kippur one lamb was to be freed, taking the sins of the world, while another lamb was sacrificed. It has been suggested that there is irony in that the accused whom Pontius Pilate freed, Barabbas, should have been sacrificed, while Jesus should have been freed. Jesus was portrayed as the Son of the Father, while the name Barabbas also means "Son of the Father", so the Jews freed the wrong "Son of the Father".

What was the trial during Holy Week?

The trial of Jesus before Pilate is covered in the Bible: Matthew 27:11-31, Mark 15:1-20, Luke 23:1-25; and John 18:12-27.


How many trials did Jesus have and how long did each last?

Mark's Gospel, followed by Matthew and Luke, says that the betrayal and arrest of Jesus occurred at the darkest hour - midnight. Jesus was led away for a trial before the high priest and other senior priests and elders at 3am in the morning. Jesus was then led away for a second trial by Pontius Pilate "when it was morning', at 6am. Mark says that it was "the third hour" - 9 am - when they crucified him. So, there were two trials and each trial must have taken something less than three hours.Notwithstanding that, it was the practice in compliance with the Torah not to sit in judgement except in the light of day. John's Gospel resolves this problem by not having a formal trial by the Sanhedrin, simply having Jesus brought first to Annas, then to Caiaphas, before being taken to Pontius Pilate. So, John's Gospel has only one trial of Jesus.


What was the relationship between Jesus and the Sanhedrin?

Jesus had no formal relationship with the Sanhedrin. To the Sanhedrin Jesus was a problem His popularity with people, His miracles and His claims to authority made the religious officials in Jerusalem nervous; Jesus' approach to Sabbath practice, healings, exorcisms, and sinners ended up challenging the existing religious structure of Judaism. So members of the Sanhedrin plotted to get rid of Jesus. Matthew 26:59 Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death,
