John 19:12-13

12As a result of this Pilate 1made efforts to release Him, but the Jews cried out saying, “2If you release this Man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone who makes himself out to be a king 3opposes Caesar.”

13Therefore when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and 4sat down on the judgment seat at a place called 5The Pavement, but 6in 7Hebrew, Gabbatha.
