Jesus has testified before the Jewish Sanhedrin and before Pontius Pilate the Roman governor of Judea. While denying culpability, Pilate eventually gives way to the demands of the Jews and send Jesus to be put death by crucifixion. The cries of the Jews which declare, “We have no king but Caesar” recall the posture of Israel of old, for as early as the book of Judges they declared that they were in need of a king although God himself was to be their king. John takes care to point out the fulfillment of the Scripture as Jesus endures the agony of the cross unto death. Once it has been determined that he is dead, they take his body down and bury him in a borrowed tomb.
