Matthew 26-27
Some of Jesus’ Trials between Gethsemane and the Crucifixion After Gethsemane, Jesus Was physically weak and exhausted. He was betrayed by a disciple and close friend, Judas. Many, including disciples, forsook Him People lied about Him. He was accused of blasphemy for telling the truth. Matthew 26: 36-46; Mosiah 3:7; D&C 19:16-19 Matthew 26: Matthew 26: Matthew 26: Matthew 26: 63-65
He was sentenced to death without a cause. He was spit on, beaten, and mocked more than once. A government leader condemned Jesus to death, though he knew He was innocent. Jesus was scourged (a brutal form of whipping that frequently killed the person). Matthew 26:66 Matthew 26: 67-68, 27: Matthew 27: Matthew 27: 26
He was stripped of His clothing. The soldiers pushed a crown of thorns onto His Head. Matthew 27: 28, 35 Matthew 27: 29
