About six in the morning Jesus was brought unto Pilate's house;1 then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the Judgment-Hall, and it was early.— When the Morning was come, all the chief Priests and Elders of the People took council against Jesus to put him to death; and when they had bound him, and led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the Governor. Then Judas which had betrayed him, hanged himself. O the readiness of our nature to evil! When the Israelites would sacrifice to the Golden-Calf, they rose up early in the Morning; if God leave us to our selves,2 we are as ready to practise mischief, as the fire is to burn, without delay. But on this Circumstance I shall not long stay; the transactions of this hour I shall consider in these two passages, Christ's Indictment, and Judas's fearful end.
