42:022:070 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son
of God? And he said
unto
them, Ye say that I am.
42:022:071 And they said, What need we any further
witness? for we
ourselves
have heard of his own mouth.
42:023:001 And the whole multitude of them arose,
and led him unto
Pilate.
42:023:002 And they began to accuse him, saying, We
found this fellow
perverting
the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to
Caesar,
saying that he himself is Christ a King.
42:023:003 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou
the King of the Jews?
And
he answered him and said, Thou sayest it.
42:023:004 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and
to the people, I
find
no fault in this man.
42:023:005 And they were the more fierce, saying,
He stirreth up the
people,
teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee
to
this place.
42:023:006 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked
whether the man were a
Galilaean.
42:023:007 And as soon as he knew that he belonged
unto Herod’s
jurisdiction,
he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at
Jerusalem
at that time.
42:023:008 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding
glad: for he was
desirous
to see him of a long season, because he had heard
many
things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle
done
by him.
42:023:009 Then he questioned with him in many words;
but he answered him
nothing.
42:023:010 And the chief priests and scribes stood
and vehemently accused
him.
42:023:011 And Herod with his men of war set him at
nought, and mocked
him,
and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again
to
Pilate.
42:023:012 And the same day Pilate and Herod were
made friends together:
for
before they were at enmity between themselves.
42:023:013 And Pilate, when he had called together
the chief priests and
the
rulers and the people,
42:023:014 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man
unto me, as one that
perverteth
the people: and, behold, I, having examined him
before
you, have found no fault in this man touching those
things
whereof ye accuse him:
42:023:015 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you
to him; and, lo, nothing
worthy
of death is done unto him.
42:023:016 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
42:023:017 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
42:023:018 And they cried out all at once, saying,
Away with this man,
and
release unto us Barabbas:
42:023:019 (Who for a certain sedition made in the
city, and for murder,
was
cast into prison.)
