Matthew 27:18-20

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁸ For he knew that it was because of envy that they had handed Him over to him.

¹⁹ Also, while he was seated on the judgment bench, his wife sent him a message, saying, Have nothing to do with that just and upright Man, for I have had a painful experience today in a dream because of Him.

²⁰ But the chief priests and the elders prevailed on the people to ask for Barabbas, and put Jesus to death.
