Matthew 27:19
27:19 As
he was sitting on the judgment seat,
his wife sent a message
to him:
“Have nothing to do with that innocent man;
I have suffered greatly as a result of a dream
about him today.”
Matthew 27:23-25
27:23 He asked, “Why? What wrong has he done?” But they shouted more insistently, “Crucify him!”
Jesus is Condemned and Mocked
27:24 When Pilate saw that he could do nothing, but that instead a riot was starting, he took some water, washed his hands before the crowd and said, “I am innocent of this man’s blood. You take care of it yourselves!”
27:25 In reply all the people said, “Let his blood be on us and on our children!”
