Mark 15
1. Jesus brought bound, and accused before Pilate.
6. Upon the clamor of the people, the murderer Barabbas is released,
12. and Jesus delivered up to be crucified.
16. He is crowned with thorns, spit on, and mocked;
21. faints in bearing his cross;
27. hangs between two thieves;
29. suffers the triumphing reproaches of the crowd;
39. but is confessed by the centurion to be the Son of God;
42. and is honorably buried by Joseph.














But Jesus
The phrase "But Jesus" introduces a contrast to the preceding actions and words of others. In the Gospel of Mark, Jesus is often portrayed as the suffering servant, fulfilling the prophecies of Isaiah. The Greek name "Iēsous" is derived from the Hebrew "Yeshua," meaning "Yahweh is salvation." This highlights Jesus' role as the Savior, who, even in silence, is fulfilling His divine mission.

made no further reply
The Greek word for "reply" is "apokrinomai," which means to answer or respond. Jesus' choice to remain silent is significant. In the context of His trial, this silence fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah 53:7, which describes the suffering servant as being oppressed and afflicted, yet not opening His mouth. This silence is not a sign of weakness but a powerful testament to His submission to God's will and His understanding of the necessity of His sacrifice.

so that Pilate
Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, is a historical figure whose role in the trial of Jesus is well-documented in the Gospels. Pilate's interactions with Jesus are marked by a sense of bewilderment and political pressure. The phrase "so that Pilate" indicates a cause-and-effect relationship, where Jesus' silence directly impacts Pilate's perception and actions.

was amazed
The Greek word "thaumazō" is used here, meaning to marvel or be astonished. Pilate's amazement can be seen as a reaction to Jesus' composure and the dignity with which He faces His accusers. In a world where power and rhetoric were often used to assert dominance, Jesus' silent strength stands in stark contrast, leaving Pilate in awe. This amazement also reflects the divine nature of Jesus, who, even in the face of death, remains sovereign and unshaken.

Verse 5. - Pilate marvelled. He marvelled that the innocent Savior, wise and eloquent, standing before him in peril of his life, should remain silent when thus vehemently accused by the leading men of the Jews. Pilate marvelled at his forbearance, his calmness, his contempt of death; from all of which he argued his absolute innocence and holiness, and resolved to do everything in his power to deliver him. The silence of a blameless life pleads more powerfully than any defense, however elaborate.
