He went back into the residence and asked Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
In context
7The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and by that law he must die, because he made himself the Son of God.” 8When Pilate heard this, he was more afraid than ever. 9He went back into the residence and asked Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer. 10So Pilate said to him, “You won’t speak to me? Don’t you know I have the authority to release you and the authority to crucify you?” 11Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over me at all if it had not been given to you from above. That is why the one who handed me over to you bears the greater sin.”
