12 And being accused by the princes of the priests and the elders, he answered nothing.
13 Then Pilate said unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?
14 And he did not answer him even a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.
15 Now at that feast the governor was accustomed to release unto the people a prisoner, whoever they desired.
16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.
17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom desire ye that I release unto you? Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?
18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.
