have suffered terribly in a dream (compare Matthew 1:20): It is notable that a pagan woman recognized Jesus innocence and spoke up for him, while the Jewish crowd did not.
The Roman trial included an initial hearing before Pilatee (Matthew 27:11–14), then one before Herod Antipas (Luke 23:6–16), and a second hearing with Pilate (Matthew 27:15–26).
The Gospels describe Jesus having five legal hearings:
an informal hearing with Annas (John 18:13–24);
a night hearing with the Sanhedrin (Matthew 26:59–66);
a morning hearing with the Sanhedrin (Matthew 27:1–2);
a hearing with Herod Antipas (Luke 23:6–12); and
a two-part trial with Pilate (Matthew 27:11–31; see Luke 23:6–12).
These hearings form two main trials, a Jewish trial and a Roman trial.
