Matthew 27:23-27

23Then the governor said, “Why, what evil has He done?” But they cried out all the more, saying, “Let Him be crucified!”

24When 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.”

25And all the people answered and said, “His blood be on us and on our children.”

26Then he released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.

27Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the Praetorium and gathered the whole garrison around Him.
