“This prophecy was fulfilled when Jesus appeared before Herod, who ‘questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing’ (Luke 23:9). When Jesus stood before Pilate, Mark records, ‘the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing. And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee. But Jesus yet answered nothing’ (Mark 15:3–5)” (Parry et al., Understanding Isaiah, 475–76).
