About This Book

A lawyerly forensic study examines the New Testament narratives about the arrest, trial, and execution of Jesus by first testing the gospel accounts for legal credibility. It then surveys Jewish criminal law, tracing Mosaic and Talmudic provisions for crimes, punishments, courts, witnesses, and procedural rules. The work concludes with a structured legal brief that evaluates the Sanhedrin's jurisdiction and numerous procedural points—legality of the arrest and private interrogation, the indictment, night and same-day proceedings, timing with religious observances, reliance on an uncorroborated confession, unanimous verdicts, juror disqualifications, and refusal to consider defenses—to determine whether the proceedings met contemporary legal standards and whether guilt was legally established.
