Contextual Overview

1 And rising up, all the multitude of them led Him before Pilate. 2 And they began to accuse Him, saying, We found this One perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying Himself to be a king, Christ. 3 And Pilate questioned Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And answering, him, He said, You say it . 4 And Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, I find nothing blameable in this man. 5 But they insisted, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to here. 6 And hearing Galilee, Pilate asked if the man is a Galilean. 7 And knowing that He is from Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him up to Herod, he also being in Jerusalem in these days. 8 And seeing Jesus, Herod greatly rejoiced, for he was wishing to see Him for a long time, because of hearing many things about Him. And he hoped to see some miraculous sign being brought about by Him. 9 And he questioned Him in many words. But He answered him not a thing. 10 And the chief priests and the scribes stood fiercely accusing Him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Pilate asked him, saying,.... Observing that it was said, he had given himself out to be a king; for as for what regarded religion, he took no notice of it; he put this question to him,

art thou the King of the Jews? that their prophecies speak of, and they have expected;

and he answered him and said, thou sayest it; that is, thou sayest well; it is as thou sayest, I am the King of the Jews;

:- though he did not leave this without an explanation; without informing him what sort of a king he was, and what kind of a kingdom he had; see John 18:36 which made Pilate perfectly easy, and desirous to release him, as appears by what follows.
