John 19:10

19:10 So Pilate said, ¹  “Do you refuse to speak to me? Don’t you know I have the authority ²  to release you, and to crucify you?” ³ 

---

¹ tn Grk “said to him.” The words “to him” are not translated because they are unnecessary in contemporary English style.

² tn Or “the power.”

³ tn Grk “know that I have the authority to release you and the authority to crucify you.” Repetition of “the authority” is unnecessarily redundant English style.

sn See the note on Crucify in 19:6.
