I.

1. But of the Jews none washed his hands, neither Herod nor any of his judges. And when they had refused to wash them, Pilate rose up.

2. And then Herod, the King, commanded that the Lord be taken, saying to them: “What things soever I command you to do, do unto him.”

II.

3. And there, stood Joseph, the friend of Pilate and of the Lord, and knowing that they would crucify him, he came to Pilate, and asked the body of the Lord for burial. 4. And Pilate sent to Herod and asked his body. 5. And Herod said: “Brother Pilate, even if no one had asked for him, we should have buried him. For the Sabbath is drawing on; for it is written in the law, that the suit set not upon one that hath been put to death.” And he delivered him to the people on the day before the feast of the unleavened bread, their feast.

III.

6. And they took the Lord and pushed him as they ran and said: “Let us drag away the Son of God, since we have him in our power.” 7. And they clothed him with purple, and set him on the seat of judgment and said: “Judge righteously, O King of Israel.” 8. And one of them brought a crown of thorns and put it on the head of the Lord. 9.And others stood and spat in his eyes, and others smote his cheeks; others pricked him with a reed, and some scourged him, saying: “With this honor let us honor the Son of God.”
