Early in the morning all the chief priests and the elders made their plans against Jesus to put him to death.

So the Pharisees left the synagogue and met at once with some members of Herod's party, and they made plans to kill Jesus.

They were filled with rage and began to discuss among themselves what they could do to Jesus.

This saying made the Jewish authorities all the more determined to kill him; not only had he broken the Sabbath law, but he had said that God was his own Father and in this way had made himself equal with God.

Once more they tried to seize Jesus, but he slipped out of their hands.

From that day on the Jewish authorities made plans to kill Jesus.

The chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where Jesus was, he must report it, so that they could arrest him.
