Matthew 27:11-15

Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor questioned Him, saying, “So You are the King of the Jews?” And Jesus said to him, “It is as you say.”

And while He was being accused by the chief priests and elders, He did not offer any answer.

Then Pilate *said to Him, “Do You not hear how many things they are testifying against You?”

And still He did not answer him in regard to even a single charge, so the governor was greatly amazed.

Now at the Passover Feast the governor was accustomed to release for the people any one prisoner whom they wanted.
