Luke 23:1-6

Jesus Brought Before Pilate

1 And the whole assembly of them rose up [and] brought him before Pilate.

2 And they began to accuse him, saying, "We have found this man misleading our nation and forbidding [us] to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying [he] himself is Christ, a king!"

3 And Pilate asked him, saying, "Are you the king of the Jews?" And he answered him [and] said, "You say [so]."

4 So Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no basis for an accusation against this man.

5 But they insisted, saying, "He incites the people, teaching throughout the whole of Judea and beginning from Galilee as far as here."

Jesus Brought Before Herod

6 Now [when] Pilate heard [this], he asked if the man was a Galilean.
