Pilot Washes His Hands
The Judgement of the Gentiles
oh 18:33 Pilate therefore entered again into the
Praetorium, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?
Joh 18:34 Jesus answered, Sayest thou this of
thyself, or did others tell it thee concerning me?
Joh 18:35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own
nation and the chief priests delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?
Joh 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of
this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight,
that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from
hence.
Joh 18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art
thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end
have I been born, and to this end am I come into the world, that I should bear
witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
Joh 18:38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth?
And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto
them, I find no crime in him.
Joh 19:1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and
scourged him.
Joh 19:2 And the soldiers platted a crown of
thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple garment;
Joh 19:3 and they came unto him, and said, Hail,
King of the Jews! and they struck him with their hands.
Joh 19:4 And Pilate went out again, and saith
unto them, Behold, I bring him out to you, that ye may know that I find no
crime in him.
Joh 19:5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the
crown of thorns and the purple garment. And Pilate
saith unto them, Behold, the man!
Joh 19:6 When therefore the chief priests and
the officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him!
Pilate saith unto them, Take him yourselves, and crucify him: for I find no
crime in him.
