2. They began to accuse Jesus. They told Pilate, “We caught this man telling things that were confusing our people. He says that we should not pay taxes to Caesar. He calls himself the Christ, a king.”
3. Pilate asked Jesus, “Are you the king of the Jews?”Jesus answered, “Yes, that is right.”
4. Pilate said to the leading priests and the people, “I find nothing wrong with this man.”
