John 18:31

31Pilate said to them, aTake him yourselves and judge him by your own law.” The Jews said to him, “It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death.”

Acts 24:6-8

6 bHe even tried to profane the temple, but we seized him.
Some manuscripts add and we would have judged him according to our law. 7But the chief captain Lysias came and with great violence took him out of our hands, 8commanding his accusers to come before you.
8By examining him yourself you will be able to find out from him about everything of which we accuse him.”
