Luke 23:13 in context
11And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
12And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

15No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
