THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN - Chapter 18 - Verse 34
Verse 34. Of thyself. From any conviction of your own mind, or any
apprehension of danger. During all the time in which you have been
praetor, have you seen anything in me that has led you to apprehend
sedition or danger to the Roman power? This evidently was intended to
remind Pilate that nothing was proved against him, and to caution him
against being influenced by the malicious accusations of others.
Jesus demanded a just trial, and claimed that Pilate should not be
influenced by any reports that he might have heard of him.
