Contextual Overview
1 And right away in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes, and the whole Sanhedrin, held a consultation, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him up to Pilate. 2 And Pilate asked him, Are you the King of the Jews? And answering he says to him, You say. 3 And the chief priests accused him of many things. 4 And Pilate again asked him, saying, Do you answer nothing? look how many things they accuse you of. 5 But Jesus no more answered anything; insomuch that Pilate marveled. 6 Now at the feast he used to release to them one prisoner, whom they asked of him. 7 And there was one called Barabbas, [lying] bound with those that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder. 8 And the multitude went up and began to ask him [to do] as he usually did for them. 9 And Pilate answered them, saying, Do you want that I release to you the King of the Jews? 10 For he perceived that for envy the chief priests had delivered him up.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the chief priests moved the people,.... Greatly solicited and persuaded them, both in person, and by their officers they employed, and dispersed among them, to make use of arguments with them to prevail upon them:
that he should rather release Barabbas unto them; than Jesus of Nazareth; choosing rather to have a murderer granted unto them, than the holy and just one. The Persic version, as before, reads, "the chief of the priests"; but they were all concerned, and were the most active men in bringing about the death of Christ; though Caiaphas was behind none of them in envy, rage, and malice;
