2
began to accuse him. They said, "We have found this man misleading our people, opposing the payment of taxes to Caesar, and claiming that he is the Christ, a king."
3
Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus replied, " That's what you say."
4
Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no legal basis for action against this man."
5
But they objected strenuously, saying, "He agitates the people with his teaching throughout Judea—starting from Galilee all the way here."
