5 But they were adamant and said, “He is inciting the people with his teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee where he began even to here.”
6 On hearing this Pilate asked if the man was a Galilean;
7 and upon learning that he was under Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod who was in Jerusalem at that time.
8 Herod was very glad to see Jesus; he had been wanting to see him for a long time, for he had heard about him and had been hoping to see him perform some sign.
9 He questioned him at length, but he gave him no answer.
10 The chief priests and scribes, meanwhile, stood by accusing him harshly.
11 [Even] Herod and his soldiers treated him contemptuously and mocked him, and after clothing him in resplendent garb, he sent him back to Pilate.
