Matthew 27:17-19

Worldwide English (New Testament)

¹⁷ So while the people were there Pilate asked them, `Which one do you want me to let free for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?'

¹⁸ Pilate knew that the chief priests did not like Jesus. He knew that was why they had brought Jesus to him.

¹⁹ While Pilate was sitting in the court to judge the case, his wife sent a message to him. She said, `Do nothing to that good man. I have been troubled very much in a dream about him today.'
