Wednesday Evening
March 1, 2017
15 Now at the feast the governor was
accustomed to releasing to the multitude
one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And
at that time they had a notorious
prisoner called Barabbas.
17 Therefore, when they had gathered
together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do
you want me to release to you?
Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?"
18 For he knew that they had handed
Him over because of envy.
19 While he was sitting on the judgment
seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have
nothing to do with that just Man, for I
have suffered many things today in a
dream because of Him."
20 But the chief priests and elders
persuaded the multitudes that they
should ask for Barabbas and destroy
Jesus. 21 The governor answered and
said to them, "Which of the two do you
want me to release to you?" They said,
"Barabbas!"
22 Pilate said to them, "What then shall I
do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They
all said to him, "Let Him be crucified!" 23
Then the governor said, "Why, what evil
has He done?" But they cried out all the
more, saying, "Let Him be crucified!"
24 When Pilate saw that he could not
prevail at all, but rather that a tumult
was rising, he took water and washed his
hands before the multitude, saying, "I
am innocent of the blood of this just
Person. You see to it."
25 And all the people answered and said,
"His blood be on us and on our children."
26 Then he released Barabbas to them;
and when he had scourged Jesus, he
delivered Him to be crucified.
15 Now at the feast the governor was
accustomed to releasing to the multitude
one prisoner whom they wished. 16 And
at that time they had a notorious
prisoner called Barabbas.
Mark 15:6-7
6 Now at the feast he was accustomed to
releasing one prisoner to them,
whomever they requested. 7 And there
was one named Barabbas, who was
chained with his fellow rebels; they had
committed murder in the rebellion.
Luke 23:17-19
17(for it was necessary for him to release
one to them at the feast). 18 And they all
cried out at once, saying, "Away with this
Man, and release to us Barabbas"-- 19
who had been thrown into prison for a
certain rebellion made in the city, and for
murder.
17 Therefore, when they had gathered
together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do
you want me to release to you?
Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?"
18 For he knew that they had handed
Him over because of envy.
Jeremiah 5:31
“The prophets prophesy falsely, And the
priests rule on their own authority; And
My people love it so! But what will you do
at the end of it?”
Micah 3:11
“Her leaders pronounce judgment for a
bribe, Her priests instruct for a price And
her prophets divine for money Yet they
lean on the LORD saying, "Is not the LORD
in our midst? Calamity will not come upon
us."
Matthew 23:24-33
24 Blind guides, who strain out a gnat and
swallow a camel! 25 Woe to you, scribes
and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse
the outside of the cup and dish, but inside
they are full of extortion and selfindulgence.
26 Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside
of the cup and dish, that the outside of
them may be clean also. 27 Woe to you,
scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you
are like whitewashed tombs which indeed
appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are
full of dead men's bones and all
uncleanness.
28 Even so you also outwardly appear
righteous to men, but inside you are full
of hypocrisy and lawlessness. 29 Woe to
you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
Because you build the tombs of the
prophets and adorn the monuments of
the righteous,
30 and say, 'If we had lived in the days of
our fathers, we would not have been
partakers with them in the blood of the
prophets.' 31 "Therefore you are
witnesses against yourselves that you are
sons of those who murdered the
prophets.
32 Fill up, then, the measure of your
fathers' guilt. 33 Serpents, brood of
vipers! How can you escape the
condemnation of hell?
19 While he was sitting on the judgment
seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have
nothing to do with that just Man, for I
have suffered many things today in a
dream because of Him."
Daniel 4:4-5
4 I, Nebuchadnezzar, was at rest in my
house, and flourishing in my palace. 5 I
saw a dream which made me afraid, and
the thoughts on my bed and the visions of
my head troubled me.
Acts 18:9-10
9 Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night
by a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak,
and do not keep silent; 10 for I am with
you, and no one will attack you to hurt
you; for I have many people in this city."
20 But the chief priests and elders
persuaded the multitudes that they
should ask for Barabbas and destroy
Jesus. 21 The governor answered and
said to them, "Which of the two do you
want me to release to you?" They said,
"Barabbas!"
Jeremiah 17:9-10
9 "The heart is deceitful above all things,
And desperately wicked; Who can know it?
10 I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the
mind, Even to give every man according to
his ways, According to the fruit of his
doings.
22 Pilate said to them, "What then shall I
do with Jesus who is called Christ?" They
all said to him, "Let Him be crucified!" 23
Then the governor said, "Why, what evil
has He done?" But they cried out all the
more, saying, "Let Him be crucified!"
Luke 23:13-17
13 Then Pilate, when he had called
together the chief priests, the rulers, and
the people, 14 said to them, "You have
brought this Man to me, as one who
misleads the people. And indeed, having
examined Him in your presence, I have
found no fault in this Man concerning
those things of which you accuse Him;
15 no, neither did Herod, for I sent you
back to him; and indeed nothing
deserving of death has been done by Him.
16 I will therefore chastise Him and
release Him" 17(for it was necessary for
him to release one to them at the feast).
Deuteronomy 21:22-23
22 "If a man has committed a sin
deserving of death, and he is put to death,
and you hang him on a tree, 23 his body
shall not remain overnight on the tree,
but you shall surely bury him that day, so
that you do not defile the land which the
LORD your God is giving you as an
inheritance; for he who is hanged is
accursed of God.
24 When Pilate saw that he could not
prevail at all, but rather that a tumult
was rising, he took water and washed his
hands before the multitude, saying, "I
am innocent of the blood of this just
Person. You see to it."
Deuteronomy 21:6-9
6 And all the elders of that city nearest to
the slain man shall wash their hands over
the heifer whose neck was broken in the
valley.
7 Then they shall answer and say, 'Our
hands have not shed this blood, nor have
our eyes seen it. 8 Provide atonement, O
LORD, for Your people Israel, whom You
have redeemed, and do not lay innocent
blood to the charge of Your people Israel.'
And atonement shall be provided on their
behalf for the blood.
25 And all the people answered and said,
"His blood be on us and on our children."
26 Then he released Barabbas to them;
and when he had scourged Jesus, he
delivered Him to be crucified.
Isaiah 53:6-9
6 All we like sheep have gone astray; We
have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity
of us all. 7 He was oppressed and He was
afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And
as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So
He opened not His mouth.
8 He was taken from prison and from
judgment, And who will declare His
generation? For He was cut off from the
land of the living; For the transgressions
of My people He was stricken. 9 And they
made His grave with the wicked--But with
the rich at His death, Because He had
done no violence, Nor was any deceit in
His mouth.
