Pilate said to the Jews, “You Jews take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.”
Men from Judah’s family will be kings. The sign that his family rules will not leave his family, before the real king comes. [257] Then many people will obey and serve him.
The Jews answered, “He is a bad man. That is why we brought him to you.”
(This happened so that what Jesus said about how he would die would be true.)
They yelled, “Take him away! Take him away! Kill him on a cross!”
