Luke 22:66 ¶ When it was day, the Council of elders of the people assembled, both chief priests and scribes, and they led Him away to their council chamber, saying,
Luke 22:67 "If You are the Christ, tell us." But He said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe;
Luke 22:68 and if I ask a question, you will not answer.
Luke 22:69 "But from now on THE SON OF MAN WILL BE SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND of the power OF GOD."
Luke 22:70 And they all said, "Are You the Son of God, then?" And He said to them, "Yes, I am."
Luke 22:71 Then they said, "What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth."
Luke 23:1 Then the whole body of them got up and brought Him before Pilate.
Luke 23:2 And they began to accuse Him, saying, "We found this man misleading our nation and forbidding to pay taxes to Caesar, and saying that He Himself is Christ, a King."
Luke 23:4 Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no guilt in this man."
Luke 23:5 But they kept on insisting, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching all over Judea, starting from Galilee even as far as this place."
Luke 23:6 ¶ When Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
Luke 23:7 And when he learned that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself also was in Jerusalem at that time.
Luke 23:8 ¶ Now Herod was very glad when he saw Jesus; for he had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had been hearing about Him and was hoping to see some sign performed by Him.
Luke 23:9 And he questioned Him at some length; but He answered him nothing.
Luke 23:10 And the chief priests and the scribes were standing there, accusing Him vehemently.
Luke 23:11 And Herod with his soldiers, after treating Him with contempt and mocking Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous robe and sent Him back to Pilate.
Luke 23:13 ¶ Pilate summoned the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Luke 23:14 and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one who incites the people to rebellion, and behold, having examined Him before you, I have found no guilt in this man regarding the charges which you make against Him.
Luke 23:15 "No, nor has Herod, for he sent Him back to us; and behold, nothing deserving death has been done by Him.
Luke 23:16 "Therefore I will punish Him and release Him."
