MATTHEW 27:19 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.”
Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him: have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of him today in a dream. Pilate's wife's dream: the divine warning through the dream parallels the divine warnings through dreams in Matthew's birth narrative (Matthew 1:20, 2:12, 2:13, 2:19, 2:22). The righteous man designation from the dreaming wife is the second declaration of Jesus' innocence (after Judas' innocent blood in verse 4).
