Pilate's Inscription on the Cross
John 19:19 Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews." 20 Many of the Jews read this inscription, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek. 21 So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write, *The King of the Jews*, but rather, *This man said, I am King of the Jews.*" 22 Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."
