20Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,
21but they kept shouting, “Crucify Him! Crucify Him!”
22A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”
23But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices for Jesus to be crucified. And their clamor prevailed.
24So Pilate sentenced that their demand be met.
