but the chief priests and senators persuaded the people to demand Barabbas, and put to death Jesus. the governor therefore having asked, which of the two would you have me release? they said, Barabbas. Pilate replied, what shall I do then with Jesus, who is called Christ? they all cried out, let him be crucified. the governor said, why, what mischief has he done? but they cried out the more, let him be crucified. Pilate perceiving he was so far from prevailing, that they were more tumultuous, he took water, and washed his hands before all the people, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: you are answerable for it. at this all the people cry'd out, "his blood be on us, and on our children." Then he released to them Barabbas: but he order'd Jesus to be scourged, and delivered up to be crucified.
I will therefore order him to be whipp'd, and then release him. now as it was customary for the governor to release one of the prisoners at the feast; all the people cry'd out, let this man die, and release to us Barabbas. Barabbas had been imprison'd for murder in a riot he had rais'd in the city. Pilate therefore, desirous to release Jesus, expostulated with them again. but they cry'd out, crucify him, crucify him. however he urg'd it a third time, why, what crime has he done? I don't find he has done any thing that deserves death: I will therefore order him to be whipp'd, and so dismiss him. but they persisted with great clamour in their demands, to have him crucified: and as the people and chief priests redoubled their clamours, Pilate determin'd to grant their request.
and went again into the Pretorium, and said to Jesus, who was your father? but Jesus gave him no answer. then said Pilate to him, won't you give me an answer? don't you know that it is in my power to crucify you, or to release you? Jesus answered, you could not have any power over me, except you deriv'd it from above: therefore they who delivered me into your hands are the most culpable. upon this, Pilate propos'd to release him: but the Jews cried out, if you let this man go, you are not Cesar's friend: he that sets up for king, opposes Cesar. Pilate therefore hearing them talk at this rate, order'd Jesus to be brought forth, and then sat down in a place of Mosaic work on his tribunal, in Syriac call'd Gabbatha.
