63The men who were holding Jesus began to mock Him and beat Him.
64They blindfolded Him and kept demanding, “Prophesy! Who hit You?”
65And they said many other blasphemous things against Him.
66At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,
67“If You are the Christ, tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe.
68And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.
69But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
70So they all asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”
71“Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”
