Any man who makes himself out to be king is a rebel against the Emperor." On hearing what they said, Pilate brought Jesus out and made him sit on the judge's seat in a place called the Mosaic Pavement (the Hebrew name is Gabbatha). And it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, "Behold your King!" Then they shouted. "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" "Crucify your King?" said Pilate. The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!" So then he gave him over to them to be crucified.
Pilate again came forth and said to the people, "See, I am going to bring his out to you, that you may clearly know that I find no crime in him," Then as Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, "BEHOLD, THE MAN!" So when the chief priests and the police saw him, they shouted. "Crucify him! Crucify him!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate, "for I find no crime in him." The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself out to be God's Son," Now when Pilate heard these words he was more alarmed than ever, and entering the Praetorium again, he said to Jesus, "What is your origin?" Jesus made no answer. So Pilate said to him. "Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, or power to crucify you?" "You would have no power over me," answered Jesus, "unless it had been given you from above. For this reason he who has betrayed me to you has the greater sin." After that Pilate began to seek to release him, but the Jews shouted out. "If you release this man you are no friend of the Emperor. Any man who makes himself out to be king is a rebel against the Emperor."

Now Jesus stood before the Governor, and the Governor questioned him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked. "It is as you say," answered Jesus; but while he was being accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear what they are testifying against you?" read more.
But he made no answer, not even to one charge; insomuch that the Governor was greatly astonished. Now it was the Governor's custom, during the Passover, to release to the people any one prisoner whom they selected. At that time they had a notorious prisoner named Barabbas. So when they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?" He knew well that it was because of enmity that they had brought Jesus before him. And while he was seated upon the judgment-seat, his wife had sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered many things today, in a dream, because of him." But the chief priests and the elders urged the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and to destroy Jesus. So when Pilate said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release unto you?" they said, "Barabbas." And Pilate asked, "What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ?" What one voice they shouted, "Let him be crucified!" But Pilate said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they kept shouting the more fiercely, "Let him be crucified!" So when Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that on the contrary a riot was threatening, he took water and washed his hands in the presence of the crowd, saying. "I am innocent of the blood of this man; you must answer for it." All the people answered, "His blood be upon us and upon our children." Then he released Barabbas to them, but Jesus he scourged, and delivered to be crucified.

After reading the letter, he asked to what province he belonged, and when he understood that he was of Cilicia, he said, "I will hear your case when your accusers also are come." And he ordered him to be kept in custody in Herod's palace.
"If I am a criminal and have done anything for which I ought to die, I do not object to die. But if none of their charges is true, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar." Then Festus, after conferring with the council, answered. "You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go."
