Markus 15,7

5 Men Jesus ga ikke noe videre svar, og Pilatus undret seg.

6 Under høytiden var det vanlig å løslate en fange som folket ba om.

En mann ved navn Barabbas satt fengslet sammen med opprørere som hadde begått mord under opprøret.

8 Folkemengden kom og ba Pilatus om å gjøre som han pleide for dem.

9 Pilatus spurte dem: «Vil dere at jeg skal løslate jødenes konge til dere?»

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.
