Bible Question: Why did Jesus not answer the false charges brought against Him? |
Bible Answer: Jesus refused to answer because He knew that it would do no good to do so. It would of been as they say adding fuel to the fire. Staying silent was also His legal right. He used His whole life was an answer to their questions. He stood silent while being dignified. Matt 27: 14 says that in doing this He greatly amazed the govenor. By the way - In Matt 26:64 Jesus did answer Caiaphas, it is Herod that He did not answer (Luke 23:9). |
