Luke:22:66-23:25

riversident@Luke:22:66 @ When daylight came, the eldership of the people assembled, both high priests and scribes, and they led him to their council, saying,

riversident@Luke:22:67 @ "If you are the Christ, tell us." He said to them,

riversident@Luke:22:68" />

riversident@Luke:22:69" />

riversident@Luke:22:70 @ They all said, "You then are the Son of God?" He said to them,

riversident@Luke:22:71 @ They said, "Why do we need any more testimony? For we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth."

riversident@Luke:23:1 @ THEN the whole assemblage arose and led him to Pilate.

riversident@Luke:23:2 @ They began accusing him, saying, "We have found this man corrupting our nation and opposing the payment of tribute to Caesar and saying that he himself is Christ a king."

riversident@Luke:23:3 @ Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus answered him,

riversident@Luke:23:4 @ Pilate said to the high priests and the crowd, "I find nothing criminal in this man."

riversident@Luke:23:5 @ But they were violent in saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching through the whole of Judaea. Starting in Galilee, he is now here."

riversident@Luke:23:6 @ Pilate, on hearing of Galilee, asked if the man was a Galilaean,

riversident@Luke:23:7 @ and when he learned that he was of Herod's jurisdiction he sent him to Herod, who was himself also in Jerusalem during those days.

riversident@Luke:23:8 @ Herod on seeing Jesus was much pleased because for a long time he had been anxious to see him on account of hearing about him, and he was hoping to see some miracle done by him.

riversident@Luke:23:9 @ He questioned him with many words; but Jesus gave him no answer.

riversident@Luke:23:10 @ The high priests and the scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

riversident@Luke:23:11 @ Herod along with his soldiers treated him with contempt and after making sport of him and putting a gorgeous robe on him, sent him back to Pilate.

riversident@Luke:23:12 @ So Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that day. Previously they had been at enmity.

riversident@Luke:23:13 @ Pilate called together the high priests and the rulers and the people

riversident@Luke:23:14 @ and said to them, "You have brought before me this man as one who misguides the people, and yet I, in examining him before you, have found in this man not one criminal thing of all that you charge against him.

riversident@Luke:23:15 @ No more has Herod; for he has sent him back to us. See, nothing deserving of death has been done by him.

riversident@Luke:23:16 @ So I will scourge him and release him."

riversident@Luke:23:17" />

riversident@Luke:23:18 @ But the whole crowd cried out together, "Put him out of the way and free Barabbas for us!"

riversident@Luke:23:19 @

riversident@Luke:23:20 @ Again Pilate spoke to them, wishing to release Jesus.

riversident@Luke:23:21 @ But they shouted, "Crucify him, crucify him!"

riversident@Luke:23:22 @ For the third time he said to them, "What wrong has he done? I have found nothing criminal in him. I will therefore scourge him and let him go."

riversident@Luke:23:23 @ But they insisted with loud voices asking to have him crucified, and their voices prevailed.

riversident@Luke:23:24 @ So Pilate gave sentence that what they asked should be done.

riversident@Luke:23:25 @ He freed the man who for riot and murder had been thrown into prison \'97 the man they asked for; but Jesus he handed over to their will.
