After Jesus’ arrest, He could not be crucified without due legal process. Even though the trial before the Jewish Sanhedrin was not held under Roman law, the Chief Priests were still bound by the principles in the Old Testament law. God’s rules of evidence, to protect innocent people who might be falsely accused, stated that an accusation could not be upheld against anybody unless two or three independent witnesses gave the same evidence of the crime (Deuteronomy 19:15-21).
