Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Luke (lightly modernized text, Grace Gems edition) (1858)

We should observe, for one thing, in this passage — what striking testimony was borne to our Lord Jesus Christ's perfect innocence by His judges. We are told that Pilate said to the Jews, "You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined him in your presence, and have found no basis for your charges against him. Neither has Herod — for he sent him back to us; as you can see — he has done nothing to deserve death." The Roman and the Galilean governors were both of one mind.

Commentary on the Whole Bible (1710)

Here is judgment turned away backward, and justice standing afar off, for fear of popular fury. Truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter, Isa. lix. Judgment was looked for, but behold oppression; righteousness, but behold a cry, Isa. v. 7 .
