Mark 15:1-15
1And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate.
2And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.”
3And the chief priests accused him of many things.
4And Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.”
5But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.
6Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked.
7And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas.
8And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them.
9And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?”
10For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up.
11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead.
12And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?”
13And they cried out again, “Crucify him.”
14And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.”
15So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
