Mark 15:4 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 15:4

And Pilate asked him again
In the presence of the chief priests, who laid so many things to his charge; for the former question was put, when Jesus and he were alone in the judgment hall, whither the Jews would not enter for fear of being defiled; see ( john 18:28 john 18:33 ) ;

saying, answerest thou nothing behold how many things they witness
against thee?
The charges were many, and very heinous, and which Pilate thought called for self-defence; (See Gill on Matthew 27:13).
