But Jesus made no further answer: so that Pilate wondered.
When however the High Priests and the Elders kept bringing their charges against Him, He said not a word in reply.
But He made no reply to a single accusation, so that the Governor was greatly astonished.
Pilate again and again asked Him, »Do you make no reply? Listen to the many charges they are bringing against you.«
So he put a number of questions to Him, but Jesus gave him no reply.
»What is your origin?« he asked. But Jesus gave him no answer.
God, it seems to me, has exhibited us Apostles last of all, as men condemned to death; for we have come to be a spectacle to all creation–alike to angels and to men.
