Contextual Overview

13 And having called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, 14 Pilate said to them, You brought this Man to me as perverting the people. And, behold, examining Him before you, I found nothing blameable in this Man regarding that which you charge against Him. 15 But neither did Herod, for I sent you up to him; and, behold, nothing worthy of death is done by Him. 16 Therefore chastising Him, I will release Him . 17 And he had to release to them one at the Feast. 18 And they all together shouted, saying, Take this one, and release Barabbas to us 19 (he who was thrown into prison due to some revolt and murder occurring in the city .) 20 Then Pilate again called out, desiring to release Jesus. 21 But they shouted, saying, Crucify! Crucify Him! 22 And a third time he said to them, For what evil did this One do? I found no cause of death in Him. Therefore, chastising Him, I will release Him .

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Pilate therefore willing to release Jesus,.... Being more and more convinced of his innocence; and still seeing more clearly into the wickedness, malice, and envy of his accusers; and having received a message from his wife:

spake again to them; putting it again to them, which he should release; asking them what he should do with Jesus; plainly signifying his mind, that he thought him innocent, and that it would be right to let him go. The Ethiopic version represents him, saying, "will ye that I save for you, or release to you the Lord Jesus?"
