John 18:14; John 18:28-32

14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.

28 Then they led Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the governor's headquarters. It was early morning. They themselves did not enter the governor's headquarters, so that they would not be defiled, but could eat the Passover.

29 So Pilate went outside to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"

30 They answered him, "If this man were not doing evil, we would not have delivered him over to you."

31 Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law." The Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death."

32 This was to fulfill the word that Jesus had spoken to show by what kind of death he was going to die.
