Immediately he[fn] made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds.

Jesus did not say a word to her. His disciples approached him and urged him, “Send her away because she’s crying out after us.”

Jesus called his disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they’ve already stayed with me three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry, otherwise they might collapse on the way.”

“Barabbas! ” they answered.

Then he released Barabbas to them and, after having Jesus flogged, handed him over to be crucified.

“Send them away so that they can go into the surrounding countryside and villages to buy themselves something to eat.”

Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd.

“Therefore, I will have him whipped[fn] and then release him.”[fn]

Then they all cried out together, “Take this man away! Release Barabbas to us! ”

A third time he said to them, “Why? What has this man done wrong? I have found in him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore, I will have him whipped and then release him.”

and released the one they were asking for, who had been thrown into prison for rebellion and murder. But he handed Jesus over to their will.

“You have a custom that I release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So, do you want me to release to you the king of the Jews? ”

So Pilate said to him, “Do you refuse to speak to me? Don’t you know that I have the authority to release you and the authority to crucify you? ”

From that moment Pilate kept trying[fn] to release him. But the Jews shouted, “If you release this man, you are not Caesar’s friend. Anyone who makes himself a king opposes Caesar! ”

Then after they had fasted, prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent them off.
