Baxendale's Dictionary of Anecdote Mark 15:6 Now at that feast he released to them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired. Tremellius was a Jew, from whose heart the veil had been taken away, and who had been led by the Holy Spirit to acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah and the Son of God. The Jews who had condemned our Saviour had said, "Not this man, but Barabbas;" Tremellius, when near his end, glorying in Christ alone, and renouncing whatever came in competition with Him, used very different words, "Not Barabbas, but Jesus." (Baxendale's Dictionary of Anecdote.)
