17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas
19 (who for a certain sedition made in the city and for murder was cast into prison).
20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spoke again to them.
21 But they cried, saying, crucify him, crucify him. {Gr. stauroo – hang him on a stake}
22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil has he done? I have found no cause of death in him; I will therefore chastise him and let him go.
23 And they insisted with loud voices, asking that he be crucified. And the voices of them and of the princes of the priests prevailed.
