13 When Pilate heard that, he brought Jesus out. Pilate sat down on the judge's seat. It was at a place called The Stone Walkway. In the Aramaic language it was called Gabbatha.
14 It was about noon on Preparation Day in Passover Week. "Here is your king," Pilate said to the Jews.
15 But they shouted, "Kill him! Kill him! Crucify him!" "Should I crucify your king?" Pilate asked. "We have no king but Caesar," the chief priests answered.
16 Finally, Pilate handed Jesus over to them to be nailed to a cross. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus.
17 He had to carry his own cross. He went out to a place called The Skull. In the Aramaic language it was called Golgotha.
18 There they nailed Jesus to the cross. Two other men were crucified with him. One was on each side of him. Jesus was in the middle.
19 Pilate had a notice prepared. It was fastened to the cross. It read, ~jesus of nazareth, the king of the jews.=
