And there was one called Barabbas, who was put in prison with some seditious men, who in the sedition had committed murder.
And he released unto them him who for murder and sedition, had been cast into prison, whom they had desired; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
And he had then a notorious prisoner, that was called Barabbas.
Now on the festival day he was wont to release unto them one of the prisoners, whomsoever they demanded.
And when the multitude was come up, they began to desire that he would do, as he had ever done unto them.
