Verdict » Against jesus
So Pilate, willing to do what would be satisfactory to the people, released to them Barabbas, and delivered Jesus to be scourged, in order to 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.
what think ye? They answered and said, He is deserving of death.
Then delivered he him therefore unto them, that he should be crucified. And they took Jesus and led him away.
