riversident - Mark:15:1-15

riversident@Mark:15:1 @ PROMPTLY at dawn the high priests, after holding a consultation with the elders and the scribes and the whole council, bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate.

riversident@Mark:15:2 @ Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" He answered him,

riversident@Mark:15:3 @ The high priests went on making many charges against him.

riversident@Mark:15:4 @ Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer? See how many charges they are making against you."

riversident@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus no longer answered anything, so that Pilate wondered.

riversident@Mark:15:6 @ It was customary that at every feast he should release some one prisoner at their request.

riversident@Mark:15:7 @ There was a man called Barabbas in chains among those insurrectionaries who in the insurrection had committed murder.

riversident@Mark:15:8 @ The crowd advanced and began asking him to do as he was accustomed to do for them.

riversident@Mark:15:9 @ Pilate answered them, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

riversident@Mark:15:10 @ For he knew that it was on account of envy that the high priests had handed him over.

riversident@Mark:15:11 @ But the high priests incited the crowd to have him rather set free Barabbas for them.

riversident@Mark:15:12 @ Pilate again asked, "What, then, shall I do with him whom you call the King of the Jews?"

riversident@Mark:15:13 @ They again shouted, "Crucify him!"

riversident@Mark:15:14 @ But Pilate said to them, "What has he done that was wrong?" But they shouted violently, "Crucify him!"

riversident@Mark:15:15 @ Then Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, set free Barabbas for them and after scourging Jesus handed him over to be crucified.
