Luke 23:24 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 23:24

And Pilate gave sentence
Resolved, determined, and gave out:

that it should be as they required;
that they should have their request, what they asked for; namely, that Jesus should be crucified, and Barabbas released.

Luke 23:24 In-Context

22 A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”

23 But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.

24 So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.

25 As they had requested, he released the one imprisoned for insurrection and murder, and he handed Jesus over to their will.

26 As the soldiers led Him away, they seized Simon of Cyrene on his way in from the country, and they put the cross on him to carry behind Jesus.
