did not go to Pilate on the sabbath,— but in the evening, after the termination of the sab- bath. Had the Evangelist said " which is the sabbath," the incongruity would at once appear of such an application being made on the sabbath — and he therefore designates the day as the first after that, which, as the day of the Lord's death, the preparation, was uppermost in his mind.
