Matthew 27:14 (KJV)

Commentary on Matthew 27:14

And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly (ἐθαύμασεν λίαν)—The Greek ethaumasen lian (marveled exceedingly) shows Pilate's amazement. No defendant remained silent when facing crucifixion—Rome's most horrific execution, reserved for slaves and rebels.Pilate sensed something transcendent. This was no ordinary prisoner. Jesus's majestic silence was more powerful than eloquent defense, revealing His divine self-control and sovereign purpose. 'He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth' (Isaiah 53:7).
