Tertullian, Against Marcion 4.42

They dragged him before Pilate and started loading on the charges: he claimed to be the Christ, a King—no question about it, the Son of God destined to sit at God's right hand. They would have pinned a different title on him if they weren't sure whether he'd actually called himself God's Son—unless he'd answered the way he did: 'You say so. I am exactly what you say I am.' When Pilate pressed him—'Are you the Christ?'—he gave the same line: 'You say so,' just so he wouldn't look like he was saying more out of fear of the man's authority. So the Lord takes his stand in the dock—and he stands there to judge his own people. The Lord himself walks into the courtroom alongside the elders and rulers of the people, just as Isaiah said. And from that moment every scripture of his passion clicks into place: 'The nations rage, the peoples plot empty things; the kings of the earth take their stand, the rulers gather as one against the Lord and against his Anointed' (Psalm 2:1-2). The 'nations' are the Romans standing with Pilate; the 'peoples' are the tribes of Israel; the 'kings' find their face in Herod, the 'rulers' in the high priests.
