Contextual Overview

1 And, straightway, early, when they had made, a council, the High-priest, with the Elders, and Scribes, and all the High-council, binding Jesus, led him away, and delivered him up unto Pilate. 2 And Pilate questioned him - Art, thou, the king of the Jews? And, he, answering him, saith - Thou, sayest. 3 And the High-priests began to accuse him, of many things. 4 And, Pilate, again, was questioning him, saying- Answerest thou, nothing? See! of how many things, they are accusing thee! 5 But, Jesus, no further, answered, anything, so that Pilate began to marvel. 6 Now, at feast time, he was wont to release unto them one prisoner, whom they were claiming. 7 And there was the so-called Barabbas, with the rebels, bound, even with them who, in the rebellion, had committed, murder. 8 And, going up, the multitude began to be claiming - according as he was wont to do for them. 9 But, Pilate, answered them, saying - Will ye, I release unto you, the King of the Jews? 10 For he was getting to know that, for envy, had the High-priestsdelivered him up.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Pilate answered them; saying,.... Being satisfied of the innocence of Jesus, and being willing to dismiss him:

will ye that I release unto you the king of the Jews? he who is called so; and which he either said by way of derision both of Christ, and them; or else in order to prevail upon them to ask his release, it being scandalous and reproachful to put their king to death.
