Jesus Faces Pilate
1 Immediately, ain the morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council; and they bound Jesus, led Him away, and bdelivered Him to Pilate.
2 aThen Pilate asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?” He answered and said to him, “It is as you say.”
3 And the chief priests accused Him of many things, but He aanswered nothing.
4 aThen Pilate asked Him again, saying, “Do You answer nothing? See how many things1 they testify against You!”
5 aBut Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.
Taking the Place of Barabbas
6 Now aat the feast he was accustomed to releasing one prisoner to them, whomever they requested.
7 And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion.
