> [!Bible]- [Mark 15:1-15 - ESV](https://bolls.life/ESV/41/15/)
> 1. And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate.
> 2. And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.”
> 3. And the chief priests accused him of many things.
> 4. And Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.”
> 5. But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.
> 6. Now at the feast he used to release for them one prisoner for whom they asked.
> 7. And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barabbas.
> 8. And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he usually did for them.
> 9. And he answered them, saying, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?”
> 10. For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up.
> 11. But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barabbas instead.
> 12. And Pilate again said to them, “Then what shall I do with the man you call the King of the Jews?”
> 13. And they cried out again, “Crucify him.”
> 14. And Pilate said to them, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him.”
> 15. So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barabbas, and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.
This was after the same trial, Jesus was already beaten. Also the Sanhedrin could not punish people of a crime. They only had domain over religious issues.
All the people that support Jesus have already fled. Also the priest have had time to bring people that would be on their side. Also since things happened so quickly that people may not have know what was going on.
The previous trial was a different trial than the one they brought to Pilate. They brought Jesus' as a political threat to Rome. The religious issue the priest have with Jesus, Pilate would not have cared if Jesus claimed to be God. Rome has many gods. But if they brought Jesus as a insurrectionist then he would be forced to take the case.
Also see Luke's 23:17-25 for more detail about the trials.
Herod lineage can be traced back to Esau from Genesis i.e. Jacob and Esau.
V15 How often do we make decisions based on satisfying the people around us.
