Pilate spoke to them for a third time and asked, “Why? What wrong has this man done? I have found no reason to have him put to death. I will have him whipped, and then I will let him go.”
He said to them, “You brought me this man and said he was turning the people against the authorities. I have questioned him in front of you, and I have found no basis for your charges against him.
Christ also suffered once for sins. Someone who did right suffered for those who did wrong, in order to bring you to God. Jesus was put to death in the body, but he was made alive in the Spirit.
