John 18:38-40

"What is truth?" Pilate asked.

Release of Barabbas

38 After Pilate said this, he returned to the Jewish leaders and said, "I find no grounds for any charge against him.

39 You have a custom that I release one prisoner for you at Passover. Do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?"

40 They shouted, "Not this man! Give us Barabbas!" (Barabbas was an outlaw.)
