16 Having chastised him therefore, I will release him.

18 But they cried out in a mass saying, Away with this man and release Barabbas to us;
19 who was one who, for a certain tumult which had taken place in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.
20 Pilate therefore, desirous to release Jesus, again addressed them.
