Luke 23:11

Context
23:11 Even Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him. Then, 1  dressing him in elegant clothes, 2  Herod 3  sent him back to Pilate.

1 tn This is a continuation of the previous Greek sentence, but because of its length and complexity, a new sentence was started here in the translation by supplying “then” to indicate the sequence of events.

2 sn This mockery involved putting elegant royal clothes on Jesus, either white or purple (the colors of royalty). This was no doubt a mockery of Jesus’ claim to be a king.

3 tn Grk “he”; the referent (Herod) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
