Contextual Overview

¹³ Pilate called the people together with the leading priests and the rulers. ¹⁴ He said to them, "You brought this man to me, saying he makes trouble among the people. But I have questioned him before you all, and I have not found him guilty of what you say. ¹⁵ Also, Herod found nothing wrong with him; he sent him back to us. Look, he has done nothing for which he should die. ¹⁶ So, after I punish him, I will let him go free." ¹⁷ [Every year at the Passover Feast, Pilate had to release one prisoner to the people.] ¹⁸ But the people shouted together, "Take this man away! Let Barabbas go free!" ¹⁹ (Barabbas was a man who was in prison for his part in a riot in the city and for murder.) ²⁰ Pilate wanted to let Jesus go free and told this to the crowd. ²¹ But they shouted again, "Crucify him! Crucify him!" ²² A third time Pilate said to them, "Why? What wrong has he done? I can find no reason to kill him. So I will have him punished and set him free."

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?"
