People's New Testament

23:11 Herod... mocked him. Pilate was a better man than Herod. Though he yielded weakly to the clamor, he was not a trifler.

Wesley's Notes

23:11 Herod set him at nought - Probably judging him to be a fool, because he answered nothing. In a splendid robe - In royal apparel; intimating that he feared nothing from this king.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

11. his men of war-his bodyguard.

set him at naught, &c.-stung with disappointment at His refusal to amuse him with miracles or answer any of his questions.

sent him again to Pilate-instead of releasing him as he ought, having established nothing against Him (Lu 23:14, 15). "Thus he implicated himself with Pilate in all the guilt of His condemnation, and with him accordingly he is classed" (Ac 4:27) [Bengel].

at enmity-perhaps about some point of disputed jurisdiction, which this exchange of the Prisoner might tend to heal.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

23:6-12 Herod had heard many things of Jesus in Galilee, and out of curiosity longed to see him. The poorest beggar that asked a miracle for the relief of his necessity, was never denied; but this proud prince, who asked for a miracle only to gratify his curiosity, is refused. He might have seen Christ and his wondrous works in Galilee, and would not, therefore it is justly said, Now he would see them, and shall not. Herod sent Christ again to Pilate: the friendships of wicked men are often formed by union in wickedness. They agree in little, except in enmity to God, and contempt of Christ.
