Who Sends Him to Herod.
WHEN Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilean.
2 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
3 ¶ And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long season, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
4 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
5 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.
6 And Herod with his men of war set him at naught, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
7 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
