Contextual Overview

53 And they brought Jesus to the high priest. And all the priests and the scribes and the ancients assembled together. 54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the high priest. And he sat with the servants at the fire and warmed himself. 55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for evidence against Jesus, that they might put him to death: and found none. 56 For many bore false witness against him: and their evidences were not agreeing. 57 And some rising up, bore false witness against him, saying: 58 We heard him say, I Will destroy this temple made with hands and within three days I will build another not made with hands. 59 And their witness did not agree. 60 And the high priest rising up in the midst, asked Jesus, saying: Answerest thou nothing to the things that are laid to thy charge by these men? 61 But he held his peace and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him and said to him: Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed God? 62 And Jesus said to him: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power of God and coming with the clouds of heaven.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But, neither so did their witness agree together. Their witness did agree together, for they both witnessed the same thing; but not so as to found upon it the charge of a capital crime against him; their witness was not so, ιση, "equal", was not answerable to their desires, nor sufficient to convict him of a capital crime, for which they could condemn him to death, as before observed on

Mark 14:56.
