8 The crowd came up and began to request what he was accustomed to do for them.
9 But Pilate answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?”
10 For he knew that out of envy the ruling kohanim had handed Him over.

13 They shouted back, “Execute Him!”
14 Pilate responded, “Why? What evil has He done?” But they shouted all the more, “Execute Him!”
