Commentary on John 18:39

Theological / Devotional

King of the Jews. [Second Trial Before Pilate, John 18:39 to 19:16=Matt. 27:15-31=Mark 15:6-19=Luke 23:13-25. Major comment: Matthew and John. See Betrayal, Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus; Passion Week, the Resurrection to Ascension, Palestine Under the Herodians.] Compare Mark 15:9. The appearance of Jesus before Herod (see Luke 23:6-12) took place at this point in John’s narrative of the trial before Pilate, as a comparison of the accounts in Luke and John makes evident.
