Context
38Pilato akamuuliza Yesu, “Kweli ni nini?” Baada ya kusema haya Pilato akaenda nje tena akawaambia wale viongozi wa Wayahudi waliomshtaki Yesu, “Sioni kosa lolote alilotenda mtu huyu. 39Lakini ninyi mna desturi yenu kwamba wakati wa Pasaka nimwachie huru mfungwa mmoja mnayemtaka. Je, mnataka niwafungulie huyu ‘Mfalme wa Wayahudi’?” 40Wao wakapiga kelele wakisema, “Si huyu mtu, bali tufungulie Baraba!” Yule Baraba alikuwa mnyangʼanyi.
