Adjective aitios (cause) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV with a few modifications for a more literal meaning)


Luke

23: 4Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find no cause (aitios) for an accusation against this man."
23: 14and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and here I have examined him in your presence and have not found this man guilty of any cause (aitios) you brought against him.
23: 22A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him no cause (aitios) for the sentence of death; I will therefore have him flogged and then release him."

Acts

19: 40For we are in danger of being charged with rioting today, since there is no cause (aitios) that we can give to justify this commotion." When he had said this, he dismissed the assembly.
