## Luke 23:5-12 in Context (Verses 2–15 KJV)
 
 [2 ](/kjv/luke/23/2) And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this *fellow* perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Cæsar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/luke/23/3) And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest *it*.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/luke/23/4) Then said Pilate to the chief priests and *to* the people, I find no fault in this man.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/luke/23/5) And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/luke/23/6) When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilæan.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/luke/23/7) And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/luke/23/8) ¶ And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long *season*, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/luke/23/9) Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/luke/23/10) And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/luke/23/11) And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked *him*, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/luke/23/12) ¶ And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/luke/23/13) ¶ And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
 
 [14 ](/kjv/luke/23/14) Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined *him* before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
 
 [15 ](/kjv/luke/23/15) No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
