Matthew 26:61 in context

  1. 59Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, that they might put him to death;
  2. 60and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward,
  3. 61and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.’ ”
  4. 62The high priest stood up, and said to him, “Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?”
  5. 63But Jesus held his peace. The high priest answered him, “I adjure you by the living God, that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
