Jesus Before Pilate

1 ^bThen the whole company of them arose and brought him before Pilate. 2 ^cAnd they began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man misleading our nation and ^dforbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a ^eking.” 3 And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.” 4 Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find ^fno guilt in this man.” 5 But they were urgent, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee even to this place.”

14 and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was ^jmisleading the people. And after examining him before you, behold, I did not find this man guilty of any of your charges against him.

5 For we have found this man a plague, one who ^pstirs up riots among all the Jews throughout the world and is a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.
