Luke 23:5
But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”
from Jesus before Pilate, Luke 23:1-5
What it says

The leaders insist that Jesus stirs up the people throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee and reaching there.

What it is doing

The accusation shifts from a charge to a broad claim of unrest.

In context

1Then the whole council rose and led Jesus away to Pilate. 2And they began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding payment of taxes to Caesar, and proclaiming Himself to be Christ, a King.” 3So Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” 4Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.” 5But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people all over Judea with His teaching. He began in Galilee and has come all the way here.”
