VERS. VII.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉.

He sent him to Herod.

DID Pilate do this, as yielding to Herod a jurisdiction in capital matters, within the City of Jerusalem upon those that were Galileans? Probably he did it, either in flattery to the Tyrant; or else that he might throw off from himself both the trouble and the odium that might arise upon the occasion of condemning Jesus, whom he judged to be an innocent man, and in some measure pitied him, looking upon him as 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 a sort of a delirant person, one not very well in his wits: which opinion also Herod seems to have conceived of him, by putting upon him that fools coat wherewith he cloathed him: 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, which I should willingly enough render white and shining, but that I observe our Evangelist when he hath occasion to mention such a Garment, calls it a white and shining robe expressly: 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Chap. IX. 29. his Garment was white and glittering. 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉, Acts I. 10. two men in white apparel.
