Luke 23:6-12

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

⁶ And Pilate, having heard it, asked if the man was a Galilean. ⁷ And having learned that He was from the authority of Herod^[a], he sent Him up to Herod— he also being in Jerusalem during these days.

Before Herod, Jesus Says Nothing

⁸ Now Herod, having seen Jesus, rejoiced greatly. For he was wanting to see Him for considerable periods-of-time because of hearing about Him. And he was hoping to see some sign being done by Him. ⁹ And he was questioning Him with many words, but He answered him nothing. ¹⁰ And the chief priests and the scribes were standing there, accusing Him vigorously^[b]. ¹¹ And Herod also— with his troops— having treated Him with contempt, and having mocked Him, having clothed Him with shining clothing, sent Him back to Pilate. ¹² Now both Herod and Pilate became friends with one another on the very day. For they were-previously existing with hostility^[c] toward them.
