‏ Luke 23:18-25

18 But they cried out all together, saying, “ aAway with this man, and release to us Barabbas!” 19(He was one who had been thrown into prison for a revolt that took place in the city, and for murder.) 20But Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again, 21but they kept on crying out, saying, “Crucify, crucify Him!” 22And he said to them a third time, “Why, what has this man done wrong? I have found
Lit in Him no
in His case no grounds for a sentence of death; therefore I will
I.e., by scourging
dpunish Him and release Him.”
23But they were insistent, with loud voices, demanding that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail. 24And so Pilate decided to have their demand carried out. 25And he released the man for whom they were asking, who had been thrown into prison for a revolt and murder; but he handed Jesus over to their will.
