185:2.1 When [[Jesus]] and his [[accusers]] had gathered in front of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate]'s [[judgment]] hall, the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_governor Roman governor] came out and, addressing the company assembled, asked, " What [[accusation]] do you bring against this fellow? " The [[Sadducees]] and [[councilors]] who had taken it upon themselves to put [[Jesus]] out of the way had [[determined]] to go before [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] and ask for [[confirmation]] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment death sentence] pronounced upon [[Jesus]], without volunteering any definite [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_charge charge].

185:2.2 When [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] [[observed]] that they were [[reluctant]] to state their charges against [[Jesus]], although he knew they had been all night [[engaged]] in [[deliberations]] regarding his [[guilt]], he answered them: " Since you have not [[agreed]] on any definite [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_charge charges], why do you not take this man and pass [[judgment]] on him in [[accordance]] with your own [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Law laws]?

185:2.3 Then spoke the [[clerk]] of the [[Sanhedrin]] [[court]] to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate]: " It is not lawful for us to put any man to [[death]], and this disturber of our [[nation]] is [[worthy]] to die for the things which he has said and done.

185:2.4 To come before the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_governor Roman governor] with this attempt at evasion discloses both the ill-will and the ill-humor of the [[Sanhedrists]] toward [[Jesus]] as well as their lack of [[respect]] for the [[fairness]], [[honor]], and [[dignity]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate]. What effrontery for these subject [[citizens]] to [[appear]] before their [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_governor provincial governor] asking for a [[decree]] of [[Death|execution]] against a man before affording him a [[fair]] [[trial]] and without even preferring definite [[criminal]] charges against him!

185:2.5 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] knew something of [[Jesus]]' [[work]] among the [[Jews]], and he surmised that the charges which might be brought against him had to do with infringements of the [[Jewish]] [[ecclesiastical]] [[laws]]; therefore he sought to refer the case back to their own [[tribunal]]. Again, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] took delight in making them [[publicly]] [[confess]] that they were powerless to pronounce and [[execute]] the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_punishment death sentence] upon even one of their own [[race]] whom they had come to despise with a bitter and envious [[hatred]].

185:2.6 It was a few hours previously, shortly before midnight and after he had granted [[permission]] to use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_soldiers Roman soldiers] in [[effecting]] the [[secret]] [[arrest]] of [[Jesus]], that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] had heard further concerning [[Jesus]] and his [[teaching]] from his [[wife]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate's_wife Claudia], who was a partial [[convert]] to [[Judaism]], and who later on became a full-fledged [[believer]] in [[Jesus]]' [[gospel]].

185:2.7 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate] would have liked to [[Delay|postpone]] this [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_(law) hearing], but he saw the [[Jewish]] [[leaders]] were [[determined]] to [[proceed]] with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_case case]. He knew that this was not only the forenoon of [[preparation]] for the [[Passover]], but that this day, being Friday, was also the [[preparation]] day for the [[Jewish]] [[Sabbath]] of [[rest]] and [[worship]].

185:2.8 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate], being keenly [[sensitive]] to the disrespectful [[manner]] of the approach of these [[Jews]], was not willing to comply with their demands that [[Jesus]] be [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_(law) sentenced] to [[death]] without a [[trial]]. When, therefore, he had waited a few [[moments]] for them to present their charges against the [[prisoner]], he turned to them and said: " I will not [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_(law) sentence] this man to [[death]] without a [[trial]]; neither will I [[consent]] to [[examine]] him until you have presented your [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_charge charges] against him in [[writing]].

185:2.11 [[Jesus]] had not been regularly tried nor [[legally]] [[convicted]] on any of these [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_charge charges].

185:2.12 When [[Jesus]] heard these [[accusations]], he well knew that he had not been heard on these matters before the [[Sanhedrin|Jewish court]], and so did [[John Zebedee]] and his [[accusers]], but he made no reply to their [[false]] charges.
