59 Then the leaders of the priests and the entire council sought false testimony against Jesus, so that they might deliver him to death.
60 And they did not find any, even though many false witnesses had come forward. Then, at the very end, two false witnesses came forward,
61 and they said, 'This man said: 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and, after three days, to rebuild it.'
62 And the high priest, rising up, said to him, 'Have you nothing to respond to what these ones testify against you?'
63 But Jesus was silent. And the high priest said to him, 'I bind you by an oath to the living God to tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.'
