And straightway in the morning,.... As soon as it was break of day, or daylight appeared:the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and Scribes; who were the principal men in the sanhedrim:and the whole council; which, on this extraordinary occasion, was convened; the result of which was, to bind Jesus, and deliver him up to the Roman governor, to be put to death by him, as a seditious person, and an enemy to Caesar, and accordingly they did so:and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
