📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century AD, during the Roman occupation of Judea, the chief priests and elders were the leading religious authorities among the Jewish people, overseeing the Sanhedrin, which was the supreme council for religious and legal matters. This group felt threatened by Jesus' teachings and claims of messiahship, leading them to conspire against him in a bid to maintain their power and avoid Roman backlash. In Matthew's Gospel, this verse describes the events shortly after Jesus' arrest, as they gathered to seek fabricated evidence to condemn him to death.
