2Pilate asked Jesus, "Are you the boss of the Jews?" Jesus replied, "You said it, but I ain't denying it."
3This got the religious leaders all riled up. They were screaming and yelling accusations at Jesus.
4Pilate questioned Jesus again, "Are you not going to defend yourself? Listen to everything they are saying about you!"
5But Jesus kept his mouth shut and didn't say a word.Pilate was amazed that a man could keep quiet in the face of so many deadly allegations.
6During the Feast of Flatbread, and the celebration of Passover, it was a tradition to release one person who was in jail and waiting execution.
7There was one particularly nasty fellow named Barabbas, who was locked up for murder.
8The crowd asked Pilate to release a prisoner and he asked if they would rather release Jesus or Barabbas.
9Pilate said, "Do you want me to let the Boss of the Jews go?"
10But he knew the religious leaders were just jealous of Jesus. Pilate was stalling and trying to help him all he could.

the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and Scribes; who were the principal men in the sanhedrim:
and the whole council; which, on this extraordinary occasion, was convened; the result of which was, to bind Jesus, and deliver him up to the Roman governor, to be put to death by him, as a seditious person, and an enemy to Caesar, and accordingly they did so:
and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate. The Syriac and Persic versions add, "the governor";
