Jesus was arrested on a charge of treason and was crucified, a common form of execution for condemned criminals. To the Romans, Jesus was a troublemaker who had got his just desserts. To the Christians, however, he was a martyr and it was soon clear that the execution had made Judaea even more unstable.

Jesus was accused of blasphemy by the Jewish leaders. Blasphemy is a religious offence, when a person says or does something regarded as being disrespectful to God. In the eyes of the Jewish leaders, when Jesus claimed to be God's son he was insulting God.

At the Roman trial, Jesus replied evasively to the question of whether he was the King of the Jews and declined to answer the further accusations brought against him. He was convicted of being the King of the Jews. It may be that his evasive response was interpreted as a confession.

Jesus prayed, asking His Father to forgive all of us for our sinful part in the false accusations that convicted and executed Him.

The arrest of Jesus was illegal. He was not at the time actually engaged in the commission of any real or pretended offense against the Jewish law. There had been no accusation laid before the court. No one "had witnessed against him."

How many trials did Jesus have? Matthew and John's account generally support Mark's two-trial version. Finally, Luke--alone among the gospels--adds a third proceeding, having Pilate pass the buck (for jurisdictional reasons) and sending Jesus to Herod Antipas.
