NT.filter - rwp insurgent:

rwp@John:18:40 @{Cried out} (\ekraugasan\). First aorist active of \kraugaz\, old and rare verb from \kraug\, outcry (Matthew:25:6|), as in strkjv@Matthew:12:19|. {Not this man} (\m touton\). Contemptuous use of \houtos\. The priests put the crowd up to this choice (Mark:15:11|) and Pilate offered the alternative (Matthew:27:17|, one MS. actually gives Jesus as the name of Barabbas also). The name \Barabbas\ in Aramaic simply means son of a father. {A robber} (\lists\). Old word from \lizomai\, to plunder, and so a brigand and possibly the leader of the band to which the two robbers belonged who were crucified with Jesus. Luke terms him an insurgent and murderer (Luke:23:19,25|). They chose Barabbas in preference to Jesus and apparently Jesus died on the very cross planned for Barabbas.
