²⁵ He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, the one they asked for, and surrendered Jesus to their will.

¹⁴ You disowned the Holy^(A) and Righteous One^(B) and asked that a murderer be released to you.^(C)

¹⁵ Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He had Jesus flogged,^(A) and handed him over to be crucified.

⁶ Now it was the custom at the festival to release a prisoner whom the people requested. ⁷ A man called Barabbas was in prison with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the uprising.

⁴⁰ They shouted back, “No, not him! Give us Barabbas!” Now Barabbas had taken part in an uprising.^(A)

⁵ But they insisted, “He stirs up the people all over Judea by his teaching. He started in Galilee^(A) and has come all the way here.”

² And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation.^(A) He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar^(B) and claims to be Messiah, a king.”^(C)

²⁶ Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged,^(A) and handed him over to be crucified.

¹³ Now here is the king^(A) you have chosen, the one you asked^(B) for; see, the Lord has set a king over you.
