'Release' in the Bible

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and the regaining of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed,

I will therefore have him flogged and release him."

But they all shouted out together, "Take this man away! Release Barabbas for us!"

Pilate addressed them once again because he wanted to release Jesus.

A third time he said to them, "Why? What wrong has he done? I have found him guilty of no crime deserving death. I will therefore flog him and release him."
