Mark 14 : 56-57
That Jesus was to be convicted of some charge or other, and be put to death, had been already determined by the priestly judges; their failure to find witnesses against Him threatened to delay the carrying out of their...scheme. Haste ...characterized their procedure throughout; they had unlawfully caused Jesus to be arrested at night; they were illegally going through the ...trial at night; their purpose was to convict the Prisoner in time to have Him brought before the Roman authorities as early as possible in the morning.
