But it is your custom that I release one prisoner for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?”Then they shouted back,“ Not this man, but Barabbas!”( Now Barabbas was a revolutionary.)

But Festus, wanting to do the Jews a favor, asked Paul,“ Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and be tried before me there on these charges?”

After two years had passed, Porcius Festus succeeded Felix, and because he wanted to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.

Then Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus,

“ You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

But they said,“ Not during the feast, so that there won’t be a riot among the people.”

During the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whomever they wanted.At that time they had in custody a notorious prisoner named Jesus Barabbas.So after they had assembled, Pilate said to them,“ Whom do you want me to release for you, Jesus Barabbas or Jesus who is called the Christ?”( For he knew that they had handed him over because of envy.)As he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent a message to him:“ Have nothing to do with that innocent man; I have suffered greatly as a result of a dream about him today.”But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus killed.The governor asked them,“ Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said,“ Barabbas!”Pilate said to them,“ Then what should I do with Jesus who is called the Christ?” They all said,“ Crucify him!”He asked,“ Why? What wrong has he done?” But they shouted more insistently,“ Crucify him!”When Pilate saw that he could do nothing, but that instead a riot was starting, he took some water, washed his hands before the crowd and said,“ I am innocent of this man’s blood. You take care of it yourselves!”In reply all the people said,“ Let his blood be on us and on our children!”Then he released Barabbas for them. But after he had Jesus flogged, he handed him over to be crucified.

I will therefore have him flogged and release him.”
