11 Jesus was brought before the governor. The governor said, "Are you the king of the Jews?" Jesus replied, "That’s what you say."
12 But he didn’t answer when the chief priests and elders accused him.
13 Then Pilate said, "Don’t you hear the testimony they bring against you?"
14 But he didn’t answer, not even a single word. So the governor was greatly amazed.
15 It was customary during the festival for the governor to release to the crowd one prisoner, whomever they might choose.
16 At that time there was a well-known prisoner named Jesus Barabbas.
17 When the crowd had come together, Pilate asked them, "Whom would you like me to release to you, Jesus Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?"
