Contextual Overview

1 At earliest dawn, after the High Priests had held a consultation with the Elders and Scribes, they and the entire Sanhedrin bound Jesus and took Him away and handed Him over to Pilate. 2 So Pilate questioned Him. "Are *you* the King of the Jews?" he asked. "I am," replied Jesus. 3 Then, as the High Priests went on heaping accusations on Him, 4 Pilate again and again asked Him, "Do you make no reply? Listen to the many charges they are bringing against you." 5 But Jesus made no further answer: so that Pilate wondered. 6 Now at the Festival it was customary for Pilate to release to the Jews any one prisoner whom they might beg off from punishment; 7 and at this time a man named Barabbas was in prison among the insurgents--persons who in the insurrection had committed murder. 8 So the people came crowding up, asking Pilate to grant them the usual favour. 9 "Shall I release for you the King of the Jews?" answered Pilate. 10 For he could see that it was out of sheer spite that the High Priests had handed Him over.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Jesus yet answered nothing,.... He still continued silent, and made no defence for himself, which the governor was willing to give him an opportunity to make, and, as his friend, urged him to it:

so that Pilate marvelled; what should be the meaning of his silence, when he was so capable of defending himself, and was so innocent, as Pilate himself was ready to believe; and yet the things he was charged with were of, the highest nature, and by persons of the greatest figure in the nation; so that his silence exposed him to a great deal of danger, which Pilate thought might easily be avoided by answering for himself; :-.
