Contextual Overview
1 With that, the whole Sanhedrin got up and brought Yeshua before Pilate, 2 where they started accusing him. "We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding us to pay taxes to the Emperor and claiming that he himself is the Messiah — a king!" 3 Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" And he answered him, "The words are yours." 4 Pilate said to the head cohanim and the crowds, "I find no ground for a charge against this man." 5 But they persisted. "He is inciting the people with his teaching throughout all Y'hudah — he started in the Galil, and now he's here!" 6 On hearing this, Pilate asked if the man was from the Galil; 7 and when he learned that he was under Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who at that time happened to be in Yerushalayim too. 8 Herod was delighted to see Yeshua, because he had heard about him and for a long time had been wanting to meet him; indeed, he hoped to see him perform some miracle. 9 He questioned him at great length, but Yeshua made no reply. 10 However, the head cohanim and the Torah-teachers stood there, vehemently pressing their case against him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Pilate asked him, saying,.... Observing that it was said, he had given himself out to be a king; for as for what regarded religion, he took no notice of it; he put this question to him,
art thou the King of the Jews? that their prophecies speak of, and they have expected;
and he answered him and said, thou sayest it; that is, thou sayest well; it is as thou sayest, I am the King of the Jews;
:- though he did not leave this without an explanation; without informing him what sort of a king he was, and what kind of a kingdom he had; see John 18:36 which made Pilate perfectly easy, and desirous to release him, as appears by what follows.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
