Lucas 23:16 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 23:16

I will therefore chastise him
Give him some correction, as by scourging, or beating with rods: this he proposed, not because he thought him deserving of it, but in complaisance to the Jews; since it would look as if their charges were not altogether weak and groundless; and that Jesus was not entirely innocent: this would carry a show of guilt and punishment, and he hoped this might be thought sufficient, and so he should please them, and save Jesus from dying, which he much desired: and release him; from his bonds, and let him go.

Lucas 23:16 In-Context

14 y les dijo: Me habéis presentado a este hombre como uno que incita al pueblo a la rebelión, pero habiéndole interrogado yo delante de vosotros, no he hallado ningún delito en este hombre de las acusaciones que hacéis contra El
15 Ni tampoco Herodes, pues nos lo ha remitido de nuevo; y he aquí que nada ha hecho que merezca la muerte.
16 Por consiguiente, después de castigarle, le soltaré.
17 Y tenía obligación de soltarles un preso en cada fiesta.
18 Pero todos ellos gritaron a una, diciendo: ¡Fuera con éste, y suéltanos a Barrabás!
