4 So Pilate asked him again, saying, “Do you not answer anything? See how many charges they are bringing against you!”
5 But Jesus did not answer anything further, so that Pilate was astonished.
6 Now at each feast he customarily released for them one prisoner whom they requested.
7 And the one named Barabbas was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder in the rebellion.
8 And the crowd came up and began to ask him to do as he customarily did for them.
9 So Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?”
