LUKE 23:11 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.”
Then Herod and his soldiers ridiculed and mocked him. Dressing him in an elegant robe, they sent him back to Pilate — ridiculed and mocked him: Herod's response to the silent Jesus is mockery. Dressing him in an elegant robe: the mock-coronation by Herod's soldiers. The robe is the ironic acknowledgment of the king-claim. Sent him back to Pilate: the transfer back — Herod is no more willing to execute him than Pilate.
