Mark 15:10-15 ▼

10 because he knew that the high priests had handed him over due to jealousy.

11 But the high priests stirred up the crowd to get him to release Barabbas for them instead.

12 So Pilate asked them again, |Then what should I do with the man you call 'the King of the Jews'?|

13 |Crucify him!| they shouted back.

14 |Why?| Pilate asked them. |What has he done wrong?| But they shouted even louder, |Crucify him!|

15 So Pilate, wanting to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them, but he had Jesus whipped and handed over to be crucified.
