Matthew 27:12
27:12 But when he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he did not respond.
Luke 23:2-5
23:2 They
began to accuse
him, saying, “We found this man subverting
our nation, forbidding
us to pay the tribute tax
to Caesar
and claiming that he himself is Christ,
a king.”
23:3 So
Pilate asked Jesus,
“Are you the king
of the Jews?” He replied, “You say so.”
23:4 Then
Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for an accusation
against this man.”
23:5 But they persisted
in saying, “He incites
the people by teaching throughout all Judea. It started in Galilee and ended up here!”
John 18:29-31
18:29 So Pilate came outside to them and said, “What accusation
do you bring against this man?”
18:30 They replied,
“If this man
were not a criminal,
we would not have handed him over to you.”
18:31 Pilate told them, “Take him yourselves and pass judgment on him according to your own law!” The Jewish leaders replied, “We cannot legally put anyone to death.”
John 19:6-7
19:6 When the chief priests and their officers saw him, they shouted out, “Crucify
him! Crucify him!”
Pilate said,
“You take him and crucify him!
Certainly
I find no reason for an accusation
against him!”
19:7 The Jewish leaders
replied,
“We have a law,
and according to our law he ought to die, because he claimed to be the Son of God!”
John 19:12
19:12 From this point on, Pilate tried to release him. But the Jewish leaders shouted out, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar! Everyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar!”
