Jesus Before Pilate

^28 (A)Then they *led Jesus from ^(B)Caiaphas into ^(C)the ^[a]Praetorium, and it was early; and they themselves did not enter into ^(D)the ^[b]Praetorium so that ^(E)they would not be defiled, but might eat the Passover. ^29 (F)Therefore Pilate went out to them and *said, “What accusation do you bring against this man?” ³⁰ They answered and said to him, “If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him to you.” ³¹ So Pilate said to them, “Take Him yourselves, and judge Him according to your law.” The Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,” ³² in order that ^(G)the word of Jesus which He spoke would be fulfilled, signifying by what kind of death He was about to die.
