Contextual Overview
1 And one and all the throng of them, arising, led him unto Pilate. 2 And they began to accuse him, saying - This one, found we, perverting our nation, and forbidding to give, tribute unto Caesar, - and affirming himself to be, an anointed king. 3 And, Pilate, questioned him, saying - Art, thou, the king of the Jews? And, he, answering him, said - Thou, sayest. 4 And, Pilate, said unto the High-priests and the multitudes, Nothing, find I, worthy of blame, in this man. 5 But, they, began to be urgent, saying - He is stirring up the people, teaching along all Judaea, even beginning from Galilee unto this place. 6 Now, Pilate, hearing that , questioned whether the man was, a Galilaean. 7 And, getting to know that he was of the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent him back unto Herod, he also, being in Jerusalem in these days. 8 And, Herod, seeing Jesus, rejoiced exceedingly; for he had been, a considerable number of times, wishing to see him, - because he had heard concerning him, and was hoping, some sign, to behold, by him, brought to pass. 9 And he went on to question him in a good many words; but, he, answered him, nothing. 10 And the High-priests and the Scribes stood vehemently accusing him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then said Pilate to the Chief priests, and to the people,.... Both to the sanhedrim, and to the mob that were gathered together about the governor's palace on this occasion; and who were standing without the judgment hall, into which they would not enter, lest they should be defiled, and be unfit to eat the passover: wherefore Pilate came out to them; and this was the second time of his coming out to them, when he said the following words,
John 18:28.
I find no fault in this man; no cause, or reason, why any punishment should be inflicted on him, and especially he be put to death; no crime that can be fastened on him, or accusation proved against him, or any thing that amounts to a charge of sedition: the man is an harmless and innocent man, that has done nothing against Caesar, or the government, and good of the nation; and therefore is not worthy of death, or of stripes, but should be discharged. This was Pilate's sense.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
I find no fault - I see no evidence that he is guilty of what you charge him with. This was after Pilate had taken Jesus into the judgment-hall by himself and examined him “privately,” and had been satisfied in regard to the nature of his kingdom. See John 18:33-38. He was “then” satisfied that though he claimed to be “a king,” yet his kingdom was not of this world, and that “his” claims did not interfere with those of Caesar.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 23:4. I find no fault in this man. — According to John 18:36; John 18:38, Pilate did not say this till after our Lord had declared to him that his kingdom was not of this world; and probably not till after he had found, on examining witnesses, (Luke 23:14,) that all their evidence amounted to no proof, of his having set up himself for a temporal king. See Bishop PEARCE.
