Jesus Faces Pilate

1 Immediately, ain the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and bdelivered Him to Pilate.  
2 aThen Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” He answered and said to him, “It is as you say.”  
3 And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He aanswered nothing.  
4 aThen Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things1 they testify against You!”  
5 aBut Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.

8 Then the multitude,1 crying aloud, began to ask him to do just as he had always done for them.

10 For he knew that the chief priests had handed Him over because of envy.
11 But athe chief priests stirred up the crowd, so that he should rather release Barabbas to them.  
12 Pilate answered and said to them again, “What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the aKing of the Jews?”

15 aSo Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, released Barabbas to them; and he delivered Jesus, after he had scourged Him, to be bcrucified.

16 aThen the soldiers led Him away into the hall called1 Praetorium, and they called together the whole garrison.
