Mark 15:3
And the chief priests accused him in many things.

Mark 15:4

Mark 15:9

Mark 15:10
For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him up out of envy.

Mark 15:11

Mark 15:13
But they again cried out: Crucify him.

Mark 15:14
And Pilate saith to them: Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more: Crucify him.
