Jesus Delivered to Pilate

wWhen morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people xtook counsel against Jesus to put him to death.


2 Samuel 17:1–4

Hushai Saves David

Moreover, Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue David tonight. I will come upon him while he is qweary and discouraged and throw him into a panic, and all the people who are with him will flee. rI will strike down only the king, and I will bring all the people back to you as a bride comes home to her husband. You seek the life of only one man,1 and all the people will be at peace. And the advice seemed right in the eyes of Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
