why did the chief priests want Jesus dead instead of being severely punished as Pilate suggested?

I don`t believe Jesus was trying to incite his death, He knew the time of His death and i believe that be temple cleansing and accusation of leaders would not have changed His time of death. It was God who decided His time of death. I believe that what He did such as temple cleansing was part of His teaching to the people.

Our dear Lord was always truthful, there was no lies in Him. He told people tha truth but they refused the truth, they do not liked the truth and they inside their hearts planned to murder Him. He prayed our God to pass away this bitter cup, He did not enjoy being murdered. He did not aim to be a hero for humankind. He loved us to the extreme, and He was truth since He was born truthful and continued to be truthful even to his death. Just happens that we do not like truth, for we are sinner and our ancestors solved to murder Him. But as His love prevails over death, Our God using His son`s death liberated us from sin and gave us abundant life, eternal life. Thank you our dear and always forgiving Lord.

Jesus was not inciting His death because He new that He came on earth as a surfering and glorious servant ''Isiah 52 Vs 13-15''. He new that He has to undergo muder, torture. distress and die for the salvation of mankind therefore could not defend himself. Jesus on the cross took up our infirmities and carried out our sorrows, yet we considered Him striken by God, smittten by him and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions and crushed for our iniquities: the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed ''Isiah 53 Vs 4-5''. Jesus did not incite his death in order to fulfill the old testament prophets.Now that God loved us and we are children of God through Jesus, we need to go by the instructions Jesus gave to the believers ''Deciples'' Mathew 10 Vs 5 - 10'' also Mathew 28 Vs 19 -20. With Jesus `s death. everything is possible and man is given grace to enter into the kingdom of God.The harvest is prenty and Jesus is sending us into the hervest.
