SEV Biblia, Chapter 26:62
Y levantndose el sumo sacerdote, le dijo: ¿No respondes nada? ¿Qu testifican stos contra ti?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:62
Verse 62. Answerest thou nothing?] The accusation was so completely frivolous that it merited no notice: besides, Jesus knew that they were determined to put him to death, and that his hour was come; and that therefore remonstrance or defense would be of no use: he had often before borne sufficient testimony to the truth.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 62. And the high priest arose and said unto him , etc.] He rose up from his seat in great wrath and anger; partly being vexed, that they could get no other and better testimony; and partly because of Christs contemptuous silence, giving no answer to the witnesses, as judging they deserved none; and which highly provoked the high priest, and therefore in passion said, answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? Is it true or false, right or wrong? The Vulgate Latin renders it, dost thou answer nothing to those things which these witness against thee? To which agree the Arabic version, and Munsters Hebrew Gospel.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 57-68 - Jesus was hurried into Jerusalem. It looks ill, and bodes worse, when those who are willing to be Christ's disciples, are not willing to be known to be so. Here began Peter's denying him: for to follow Chris afar off, is to begin to go back from him. It is more our concern to prepare for the end, whatever it may be, than curiously to ask what the end will be. The event is God's, but the duty is ours. Now the Scriptures were fulfilled, which said, False witnesses are risen u against me. Christ was accused, that we might not be condemned; and i at any time we suffer thus, let us remember we cannot expect to far better than our Master. When Christ was made sin for us, he was silent and left it to his blood to speak. Hitherto Jesus had seldom professe expressly to be the Christ, the Son of God; the tenor of his doctrin spoke it, and his miracles proved it; but now he would not omit to make an open confession of it. It would have looked like declining his sufferings. He thus confessed, as an example and encouragement to his followers, to confess him before men, whatever hazard they ran Disdain, cruel mocking, and abhorrence, are the sure portion of the disciple as they were of the Master, from such as would buffet an deride the Lord of glory. These things were exactly foretold in the fiftieth chapter of Isaiah. Let us confess Christ's name, and bear the reproach, and he will confess us before his Father's throne.
