John 19:7-16
The Jewish leaders replied, "By our laws he ought to die because he called himself the Son of God."
When Pilate heard this, he was more frightened than ever. He took Jesus back into the headquarters again and asked him, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave him no answer. "You won't talk to me?" Pilate demanded. "Don't you realize that I have the power to release you or to crucify you?"
Then Jesus said, "You would have no power over me at all unless it were given to you from above. So the one who brought me to you has the greater sin."
Then Pilate tried to release him, but the Jewish leaders told him, "If you release this man, you are not a friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is a rebel against Caesar."
When they said this, Pilate brought Jesus out to them again. Then Pilate sat down on the judgment seat on the platform that is called the Stone Pavement (in Hebrew, Gabbatha.) It was now about noon of the day of preparation for the Passover. And Pilate said to the people, "Here is your king!"
"Away with him," they yelled. "Away with him crucify him!"
"What? Crucify your king?" Pilate asked.
"We have no king but Caesar," the leading priests shouted back.
Then Pilate gave Jesus to them to be crucified.

John 19:4-7
Pilate went outside again and said to the people, "I am going to bring him out to you now, but understand clearly that I find him not quality."
Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said, "Here is the man!"
When they saw him, the leading priests and Temple guards began shouting, "Crucify, Crucify!"
"You crucify him," Pilate said. "I find him not guilty."
The Jewish leaders replied, "By our laws he ought to die because he called himself the Son of God."

The Pain Jesus Endured For Us
John 19:1-4
Then Pilate had Jesus flogged with a lead-tipped whip. The soldiers made a crown of long, sharp thorns and put it on his head and they put a royal purple robe on him. "Hail! King of the Jews!" they mocked, and they hit him with their fists.

Jeus" Trial before Pilate
John 18:28-40 (NLT)
Jesus' trial before Caiaphas ended in the early hours of the morning. Then he was taken to the headquarters of the Roman governor. His accusers didn't go in themselves because it would defile them, and they wouldn't be allowed to celebrate the Passover feast. So Pilate, the governor, went out to them and asked, "What is your charge against this man?"
We wouldn't have handed him over to you if he weren't a criminal!" they retorted. Then take him away and judge him by your own laws," Pilate told them.
"Only the Romans are permitted to execute someone." the Jewish leaders replied. This fulfilled Jesus' prediction about the way he would die.
Then Pilate went back inside and called for Jesus to be brought to him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked him.
Jesus replied, "Is this your own question, or did others tell you about me?"
"Am I a Jew?: Pilate asked, "Your own people and their leading priests brought you here. Why" What have you done?
Then Jesus answered, "I am not an earthly king. If I were, my followers would have fought when I was arrested by the Jewish leaders. But my Kingdom is not of this world."
Pilate replied, "You are a king then?" You say that I am a king, and you are right." Jesus said. "I was born for that purpose. And I came to bring truth to the world. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true."
"What is truth?" Pilate asked. Then he went out again to the people and told them, "He is not quility of any crime. But you have a custom of asking me to release someone from prison each year at Passover. So if you want me to, I'll release the King of the Jews."
But they shouted back, "No! Not this man, but Barabbas!" (Barabbas was a criminal.)

Peter's Secon AND Third Denials
John 18:25-26 (NLT)
Meanwhile, as Simon Peter was standing by the fire, they asked him again, "Aren't you one of his disciples?"
"I am not," he said.
But one of the household servants of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, "Didn't I see you out there in the olive grove with Jesus?" Again Peter denied it. And immediately a rooster crowded.
*Petr was told by Jesus that he was going to deny Jesus three times. And it happened.

High Priest Questions Jesus
John 18:19-24 (NLT)
Inside, the high priest began asking Jesus about his followers and what he had been teaching them, Jesus replied, "What I teach is widely known, because I have preached regularly in the synagogues and the Temple. I have been heard by people everywhere, and I teach nothing in private that I have not said in public.Why are you asking me this question? Ask those who heard me. They know what I said."
One of the Temple guards standing there struck Jesus on the face. "Is that the way to answer the high priest?: he demanded.
Jesus replied, "If I said anything wrong, you must give evidence for it. Should you hit a man for telling the truth?
Then Annas bound Jesus and sent him to Caiaphas, the high priest.

Peter Denies Jesus
John 18:15-18
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out the other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and space unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of the man's disciples? He saith, I am not. And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.
