john 18:30 They answered and said to him, "If this Man were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you."


      30. If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee--They were conscious they had no case of which Pilate could take cognizance, and therefore insinuate that they had already found Him worthy of death by their own law; but not having the power, under the Roman government, to carry their sentence into execution, they had come merely for his sanction.

JFB.
