He pronounced Jesus guilty, and sent Jesus to Pilate to crucify Him. Pilate examined Jesus, and realized that He was innocent of all charges that had been made of Him by the Jews. Pilate tried three times to release Jesus, but all to no avail. The Jews cried out that His blood was to be upon them, and their children, and they have been paying for that every since.

Pilate's wife had also warned her husband not to have anything to do with this just man, for He was righteous. Pilate tries in desperation to offer the release of one prisoner, which was customary at the Passover celebration, and the Jews ...
