rwp@Mark:15:7 @{Bound with them that had made insurrection} (\meta tn stasiastn dedemenos\). A desperate criminal, leader in the insurrection, sedition (\en ti stasei\), or revolution against Rome, the very thing that the Jews up at Bethsaida Julias had wanted Jesus to lead (John:6:15|). Barabbas was the leader of these rioters and was bound with them. {Had committed murder} (\phonon pepoikeisan\). Past perfect indicative without augment. Murder usually goes with such rioters and the priests and people actually chose a murderer in preference to Jesus.
