Contextual Overview

1 Early the next morning the chief priests, the nation's leaders, and the teachers of the Law of Moses met together with the whole Jewish council. They tied up Jesus and led him off to Pilate. 2 He asked Jesus, "Are you the king of the Jews?" "Those are your words," Jesus answered. 3 The chief priests brought many charges against Jesus. 4 Then Pilate questioned him again, "Don't you have anything to say? Don't you hear what crimes they say you have done?" 5 But Jesus did not answer, and Pilate was amazed. 6 During Passover, Pilate always freed one prisoner chosen by the people. 7 And at that time there was a prisoner named Barabbas. He and some others had been arrested for murder during a riot. 8 The crowd now came and asked Pilate to set a prisoner free, just as he usually did. 9 Pilate asked them, "Do you want me to free the king of the Jews?" 10 Pilate knew that the chief priests had brought Jesus to him because they were jealous.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then Pilate said unto them,.... The third time,

Luke 23:22;

why, what evil hath he done? worthy of death. They had charged him with many things, but proved nothing against him. Pilate could find no fault in him, and judged him an innocent person, and therefore was loth to condemn him:

and they cried out the more exceedingly; with louder voices, and greater vehemency, the more they found he was inclined to save him:

crucify him; nothing short of death would satisfy them, and no other death but that of the cross; Luke 23:22- :,

Luke 23:22- :.
