5 Jesus therefore came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple garment. Pilate said to them, 'Behold, the man!'
6 When therefore the chief priests and the officers saw him, they shouted, saying, 'Crucify! Crucify!' Pilate said to them, 'Take him yourselves, and crucify him, for I find no basis for a charge against him.'
7 The Jews answered him, 'We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.'
8 When therefore Pilate heard this saying, he was more afraid.
