Summary

In this verse, during the trial of Jesus before Pilate, the chief priests were accusing Him of many things, but Jesus chose to remain silent, fulfilling the prophecy in Isaiah 53:7. His silence demonstrated His submission to the Father's will and His willingness to endure unjust suffering for the sake of humanity's salvation. Despite the false accusations and mockery, Jesus' quiet demeanor revealed His humility and commitment to fulfilling His mission on earth. This moment reflects Jesus' obedience to God's plan, even in the face of intense opposition and injustice, ultimately leading to His sacrificial death on the cross.

Commentary

John Gill

John Gill Bible Commentary

But Jesus yet answered nothing,.... He still continued silent, and made no defence for himself, which the governor was willing to give him an opportunity to make, and, as his friend, urged him to it: so that Pilate marvelled; what should be the meaning of his silence, when he was so capable of defending himself, and was so innocent, as Pilate himself was ready to believe; and yet the things he was charged with were of, the highest nature, and by persons of the greatest figure in the nation; so that his silence exposed him to a great deal of danger, which Pilate thought might easily be avoided by answering for himself; See Gill on Mat 27:14.
