Context of Mark 15:10
8The crowd asked Pilate to do for them what he always did. 9Pilate answered them, “Do you want me to free the king of the Jews for you?” Pilate knew that the chief priests had handed Jesus over to him because they were jealous. 11The chief priests stirred up the crowd so that Pilate would free Barabbas for them instead. 12So Pilate again asked them, “Then what should I do with the king of the Jews?”
