Jesus Handed Over to Pontius Pilate
Then the whole multitude of them arose and led Him to Pilate.
Then the whole multitude of them arose and led Him to Pilate.
Jesus’ Trial before Pilate
Then the entire council took Jesus to Pilate, the Roman governor.
Then the entire council took Jesus to Pilate, the Roman governor.
They began to state their case: “This man has been leading our people astray by telling them not to pay their taxes to the Roman government and by claiming he is the Messiah, a king.”
Then Pilate asked Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?”
He answered him and said, “It is as you say.”
He answered him and said, “It is as you say.”
So Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
Jesus replied, “You have said it.”
Jesus replied, “You have said it.”
So Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowd, “I find no fault in this Man.”
Pilate turned to the leading priests and to the crowd and said, “I find nothing wrong with this man!”
But they were the more fierce, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this place.”
Then they became insistent. “But he is causing riots by his teaching wherever he goes — all over Judea, from Galilee to Jerusalem!”
“Oh, is he a Galilean?” Pilate asked.
And as soon as he knew that He belonged to Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time.
When they said that he was, Pilate sent him to Herod Antipas, because Galilee was under Herod’s jurisdiction, and Herod happened to be in Jerusalem at the time.
Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad; for he had desired for a long time to see Him, because he had heard many things about Him, and he hoped to see some miracle done by Him.
Herod was delighted at the opportunity to see Jesus, because he had heard about him and had been hoping for a long time to see him perform a miracle.
Then he questioned Him with many words, but He answered him nothing.
He asked Jesus question after question, but Jesus refused to answer.
And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused Him.
Meanwhile, the leading priests and the teachers of religious law stood there shouting their accusations.
Then Herod and his soldiers began mocking and ridiculing Jesus. Finally, they put a royal robe on him and sent him back to Pilate.
That very day Pilate and Herod became friends with each other, for previously they had been at enmity with each other.
(Herod and Pilate, who had been enemies before, became friends that day.)
Taking the Place of Barabbas
Then Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
Then Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
Then Pilate called together the leading priests and other religious leaders, along with the people,
said to them, “You have brought this Man to me, as one who misleads the people. And indeed, having examined Him in your presence, I have found no fault in this Man concerning those things of which you accuse Him;
and he announced his verdict. “You brought this man to me, accusing him of leading a revolt. I have examined him thoroughly on this point in your presence and find him innocent.
Herod came to the same conclusion and sent him back to us. Nothing this man has done calls for the death penalty.
