Jesus Mocked and Examined

Luke 22:63-71

Meanwhile, the men who were holding Yeshua made fun of him. They beat him,

blindfolded him, and kept asking him, “Now, ‘prophesy’! Who hit you that time?”

And they said many other insulting things to him.

At daybreak, the people’s council of elders, including both head cohanim and Torah-teachers, met and led him off to their Sanhedrin,

where they said, “If you are the Mashiach, tell us.” He answered, “If I tell you, you won’t believe me;

and if I ask you, you won’t answer.

But from now on, the Son of Man will be sitting at the right hand of HaG’vurah,”

They all said, “Does this mean, then, that you are the Son of God?” And he answered them, “You say I am.”

They said, “Why do we need additional testimony? We have heard it ourselves from his own mouth!”
