Lukas 23,22

20 Pilatus ønsket å løslate Jesus, og talte til dem igjen.

21 Men de fortsatte å rope: «Korsfest ham! Korsfest ham!»

For tredje gang sa han til dem: «Hvorfor? Hva ondt har denne mannen gjort? Jeg finner ingen grunnlag for en dødsdom. Derfor vil jeg tukte ham og løslate ham.»

23 Men de insisterte, med høye rop krevde de at han skulle korsfestes, og deres rop fikk overtaket.

24 Så Pilatus besluttet å innfri deres krav.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
