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

And they were instant with loud voices,.... They were urgent, and insisted upon his crucifixion, and pressed hard for it, and exerted their voices, and more loudly called:

requiring him, that he might be crucified: desiring it in the most importunate manner; signifying, that it must be, that nothing else would content them:

and the voices of them, and the chief priests, prevailed; upon Pilate to grant their request, contrary to the dictates of his own conscience, the conduct of Herod, and the message of his wife; the people being set on by the chief priests, and the chief priests joining with them, their numbers were so great, and their requests were pressed with so much force, and violence, and importunity, that Pilate could not withstand them.
