23 And being let go, athey went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them.

a‘Why did the nations rage,
And the people plot vain things?
a‘Why did the nations rage,
And the people plot vain things?

And the rulers were gathered together
Against the Lord and against His Christ.’
27 “For atruly against bYour holy Servant Jesus, cwhom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together
