But the chief priests and elders persuaded the populace that they should ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. The governor repeating the question, said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? They said Barabbas. Pilate saith unto them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called the Messiah? They all say to him, Let him be crucified. The governor replied, But what evil hath he done? They cried out with greater vehemence, saying, Let him be crucified. When Pilate saw that it was of no use to contend, but that rather a tumult was rising, he took water, and washed his hands before the people, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man: ye must answer for it. Then all the people answering said, His blood be on us, and on our children. Then he released unto them Barabbas: but having scourged Jesus, he delivered him up to be crucified.
I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him. (Now he held it necessary to release one to them at the feast.) Then the whole multitude set up a cry, saying, Away with this fellow, and release unto us Barabbas! (who for a certain sedition raised in the city, and for murder, had been cast into prison.) Again therefore Pilate called out to them, desirous to see Jesus at liberty. But they clamoured the more, saying, Crucify, crucify him. Then the third time he said to them, What evil hath this man done? I have found nothing deserving death in him: I will therefore, after scourging, discharge him. But they were instant with the most clamorous vociferations, soliciting that he might be crucified. And their clamours, and those of the chief priests, bore him down. Then Pilate decreed that their petition should be granted.
and entered into the praetorium again, and saith to Jesus, From whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate to him, Dost thou not speak to me? dost thou not know that I have power to crucify thee, and that I have power to release thee? Jesus answered, Thou wouldest have had no authority over me, unless it had been given thee from above: for this reason, he that hath delivered me up to thee hath the greater crime. Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews clamoured, saying, If thou release this fellow, thou art no friend of Caesar's: every one who professes himself a king, speaks in opposition to Caesar. When Pilate therefore heard this speech, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat, in a place called the Stone Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.
