Matthew 26:59-61
Amplified Bible
59 Now the chief priests and the whole Council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) tried to get false witnesses to testify against Jesus, so that they might [have a reason to] put Him to death. 60 They found none, even though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forward, 61 and testified, “This man said, ‘[a]I am able to [b]tear down the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”
