NET © Notes

tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

sn Learning that Jesus was from Galilee and therefore part of Herod’s jurisdiction, Pilate decided to rid himself of the problem by sending him to Herod.

sn Herod was Herod Antipas, son of Herod the Great. See the note on Herod in 3:1.

sn Herod would probably have come to Jerusalem for the feast, although his father was only half Jewish (Josephus, Ant. 14.15.2 [14.403]). Josephus does mention Herod’s presence in Jerusalem during a feast (Ant. 18.5.3 [18.122]).
