John 19:1-8

John 19:1-8 CSB

Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged. The soldiers also twisted together a crown  of thorns, put it on his head, and clothed him in a purple robe. And they kept coming up to him  and saying, “Hail, king of the Jews! ” and were slapping his face. Pilate went outside again and said to them, “Look, I’m bringing him out to you to let you know I find no grounds  for charging him.” Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe.  Pilate said to them, “Here is the man! ”  When the chief priests and the temple servants  saw him, they shouted, “Crucify! Crucify! ” Pilate responded, “Take him and crucify him yourselves, since I find no grounds for charging him.” “We have a law,” the Jews replied to him, “and according to that law he ought to die,  because he made himself the Son of God.”  When Pilate heard this statement, he was more afraid than ever.
