Lukas 23:6-8

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁶ And when Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Gelili (an inhabitant of the Galil).

⁷ And having learned that he is under the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Yerushalayim during those days.

⁸ And Herod, having laid eyes on Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, had great simcha. For he was for a long time wanting to see him, because he keeps hearing things about him and was hoping to watch some ot (miraculous sign) being performed by him.
