Contextual Overview

13 And Pilate called together the hye priestes, and the rulers, and the people, 14 And said vnto them: Ye haue brought this man vnto me, as one yt peruerteth the people: and behold, I examine him before you, & finde no fault in this man of those thinges wherof ye accuse hym: 15 No, nor yet Herode: For I sent you to hym, and loe nothing worthy of death is done to hym. 16 I wyll therefore chasten hym, and let hym loose. 17 For of necessitie he must haue let one loose vnto them at the feast. 18 And all the people cryed at once, saying: Away with him, and deliuer to vs Barabbas. 19 Which for a certaine insurrection made in the citie, and for murther, was cast in pryson. 20 Pilate spake agayne to them, wyllyng to let Iesus loose. 21 But they cryed, saying: Crucifie hym, crucifie hym. 22 He sayde vnto them the thirde tyme: What euyll hath he done? I finde no cause of death in hym, I wyll therefore chasten hym, and let hym go.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For of necessity he must release one,.... And therefore proposed to release Jesus

unto them at the feast; of passover, which now was; not that there was any law that obliged to it, but it having been customary with the Roman governor to do so, the people expected it; custom had made it necessary: and so the Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions render it, "it was a custom to release", &c. not at each feast, or every feast, as the last of these versions read, only at the passover, as is expressed, John 18:39.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See the notes at Matthew 27:15.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Luke 23:17. For of necessity he must release one — That is, he was under the necessity of releasing one at this feast. The custom, however it originated, had now been so completely established that Pilate was obliged to attend to it. Matthew 27:15; Matthew 27:15.
