Context of Mark 15:10

8So the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to keep his custom. 9“Do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asked. For he knew it was out of envy that the chief priests had handed Jesus over. 11But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas to them instead. 12So Pilate asked them again, “What then do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”
