Luke 23:20-23

20Pilate, wanting to release Jesus, addressed them again,

21but they kept on calling out, saying, “Crucify, crucify Him!”

22And he said to them the third time, “Why, what evil has this man done? I have found in Him no guilt demanding death; therefore I will 1punish Him and release Him.”

23But they were insistent, with loud voices asking that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail.
