And Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked Him, saying, Art thou the king of the Jews? And Jesus answered him, It is as thou sayest. And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, He answered nothing. Then saith Pilate to Him, Dost thou not hear how many things they witness against thee? read more.
but He answered him not one word: so that the governor was much astonished. Now the governor used at the feast to release a prisoner to the people, whomsoever they desired: and they had then a notorious malefactor named Barabbas. Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ? for he knew that out of envy they had delivered Him up. (And while he was sitting on the tribunal, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that righteous man: for I have suffered much in a dream to day on his account.) But the chief priests and elders persuaded the common people to ask for Barabbas, and so to destroy Jesus. And the governor said to them, Which of the two would you have me release to you? and they said, Barabbas. What shall I do then, saith Pilate, with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all cried out, Let Him be crucified. And the governor said, Why, what evil hath He done? but they cried out the more, saying, Let Him be crucified. Pilate seeing that he prevailed nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, took water and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just man, look ye to it: and all the people answered and said, His blood be on us, and on our children. Then he released to them Barabbas: but he ordered Jesus to be scourged, and delivered Him to be crucified.

And when the governor had read the letter, and asked of what province he was; being informed that he was of Cilicia, he said, I will hear thee, when thine accusers are also come. And he ordered him to be kept in Herod's palace.
For if I am indeed doing them wrong, and have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be nothing in what these men accuse me of, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Cesar. Then Festus, conferring with his council, answered, Hast thou appealed to Cesar? to Cesar thou shalt go.
