When Pilate heard them say that, he became more afraid than ever.
When Pilate heard what they said, he took Jesus outside and sat on the judge’s seat in a place called Stone Pavement. (In Hebrew it is called Gabbatha.)
The Jews answered Pilate, “We have a law, and by that law he must die because he claimed to be the Son of God.”
He went into the palace again and asked Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus didn’t answer him.
