Matthew 27:14

And he answered him never a word; so that the governor marveled greatly.
All Commentaries on Matthew 27:14 Go To Matthew 27

Jerome

AD 420
But observe, that to Pilate who asked the question unwillingly He did answer somewhat; but to the Chief Priests and Priests He refused to answer, judging them unworthy of a word; “And when he was accused by the Chief Priests and Elders he answered nothing.”. Thus though it is a Gentile who sentences Jesus, he lays the cause of His condemnation upon the Jews. Or, Jesus would not make any answer, lest if He cleared Himself the governor should have let Him go, and the benefit of His cross should have been deferred.
