Matthew 26:59 Douay-Rheims

And the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death:

Jerome

c. A.D. 347–420 Patristic

For as God, He knew that whatever He said would be twisted into an accusation against Him. But at this His silence before false witnesses and ungodly Priests, the High Priest was exasperated, and summons Him to answer, that from anything He says he may raise a charge against Him.
