Jesus Faces Herod

When Pilate heard [a]of Galilee, he asked if the Man were a Galilean. And as soon as he knew that He belonged to (A)Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time. Now when Herod saw Jesus, (B)he was exceedingly glad; for he had desired for a long time to see Him, because (C)he had heard many things about Him, and he hoped to see some miracle done by Him. Then he questioned Him with many words, but He answered him (D)nothing. 10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused Him. 11 (E)Then Herod, with his [b]men of war, treated Him with contempt and mocked Him, arrayed Him in a gorgeous robe, and sent Him back to Pilate.

He plied him with many questions, but Jesus gave him no answer.(D) 10 The chief priests and the teachers of the law were standing there, vehemently accusing him. 11 Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe,(E) they sent him back to Pilate.
