1. And when the entire assembly of them arose, they led Him to Pilate.

2. And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting the nation and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, claiming that He Himself is Christ, a King.”

3. But Pilate questioned Him, saying, “Are You the King of the Jews?” And He answered and said, “It is as you say.”

4. Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find nothing blameworthy in this man.”

5. But they were insistent, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all of Judea, beginning from Galilee even to here.”

6. And when he heard Galilee named, Pilate asked whether the Man were a Galilean;

7. And after determining that He was from Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, since he also was in Jerusalem in those days.

8. And when Herod saw Jesus, he rejoiced greatly; for he had long been desiring to see Him because he had heard many things about Him, and he was hoping to see a miracle done by Him.

9. And he questioned Him with many words; but He answered him nothing.

10. All the while, the chief priests and the scribes stood vehemently accusing Him.

11. Then Herod and his soldiers treated Him with contempt; and after mocking Him, he put a splendid robe on Him and sent Him back to Pilate.

12. And on that same day, Pilate and Herod became friends with each other, because before there was enmity between them. (A Faithful Version)

1. 質詢完畢與會眾人起來，把耶穌押解到彼拉多那裡。

2. 作出指控：這人，涉及企圖顛覆國家，煽動不要納稅給凱撒，自稱是基督，是王。

3. 彼拉多問耶穌：你是猶太人的王？耶穌回：就你說的，是。

4. 彼拉多對祭司長和眾人說：問不出有涉及控罪的因由。

5. 一眾人等，卻堅稱：實在是煽惑百姓，在猶太全地誤導，起初是在加利利起，如今在這裡。

6. 提到加利利，彼拉多便問耶穌是加利利人嗎？

7. 經過一輪確認屬希律管轄，就命人解去希律那裡，碰巧希律就在耶路撒冷。

8. 希律一見耶穌，非常歡喜，他聽過許多耶穌的事跡，早有希望遇上，指望能為他行個神蹟。

9. 希律為此問了許多，耶穌卻一句不回。

10. 祭司長和文士一直在旁，賣力地作出各樣的不是。

11. 希律和兵丁對耶穌便心生厭棄。於是給穿上華衣美服，戲弄了一會後押回彼拉多。

12. 這一天，彼拉多和希律彼此成了好友，他們之前相互之間有點敵意。

耶穌在此，從記述的情節，看來是不會判死，只因為人不識趣。

不識趣，在以前的社會和今日的社會，識趣是成功的要素。放在現實的場景去理解，是要睇人面色作出配合的態度。不討好就會變成乞人憎，怎會是這樣？那是有權有勢的人，或者想像自己是有權有勢的代行人一貫的通病：虛榮心作祟。

人的虛榮心讓他感覺耶穌不識趣，傷害了他的權威和虛榮。正正如此，第12節的形容：這一天，彼拉多和希律彼此成了好友，他們之前相互之間有點敵意。這顯示他們之間原本因為政治的因素而來的敵意，都因為耶穌的 [傲慢] 化解了他們之間的不和。這是憑肉體，借血氣行事，是情感的一種表達，很普遍。只是對耶穌而言，事就說事的使命感，才是他要揭示的人生價值所在，不在討好不在識趣。

人活著，不論權勢不論財富，本身就有創造者給予的尊嚴，在祂面前人人平等。因為就有：人活著不是單靠食物。人的尊嚴是來自：創造者口中的展示過的原則。中華民族有言，死，有輕於鴻毛，有重於泰山。這不是人赴死的偉大，而是人性本該如是，世界才能和諧。

耶穌在人面前，展示的是人本身的價值，是那創造者的原型。提阿非羅對人性極之了解，因為他就在這個虛幻的世界中享有一席位。他有可能就是這樣有點堅持的人，值得路加給他寫一封如此長的信，提醒或者喚醒，在他人性中那份仍未褪色的光彩。只要頭腦靈動一點，心思靈巧純良，接受這種改變，用以應對世界的千變萬化，也是游刃有餘。
