John 19:5 in context

The verses around it, from John 19.

1 Then Pilate took Jesus and had Him flogged.

2 The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns, set it on His head, and dressed Him in a purple robe.

3 And they went up to Him again and again, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!” and slapping Him in the face.

4 Once again Pilate came out and said to the Jews, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against Him.”

5 When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

6 As soon as the chief priests and officers saw Him, they shouted, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!” “You take Him and crucify Him,” Pilate replied, “for I find no basis for a charge against Him.”

7 “We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”

8 When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,

9 and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.
