Tree Of Life Version

John 11:49-57 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

49. But one of them, Caiaphas, who was kohen gadol that year, said to them, “You know nothing!

50. You don’t take into account that it is better for you that one man die for the people rather than for the whole nation to be destroyed.”

51. Now he did not say this by himself; but as the kohen gadol that year, he prophesied that Yeshua would die for the nation.

52. And not for the nation only, but also so that He might gather together into one the scattered children of God.

53. So from that day on, they plotted to kill Him.

54. Therefore Yeshua no longer walked openly among the Judeans, but went from there to the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim. He stayed there with His disciples.

55. Now the Jewish Passover was near; and many people went up out of the regions to Jerusalem before Passover, to purify themselves.

56. So they were searching for Yeshua, saying to one another as they stood in the Temple, “What do you think? Won’t He come to the feast at all?”

57. Now the ruling kohanim and Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he should report it so that they might arrest Him.
