10. For Pilate knew that because of kinah (envy) the Rashei Hakohanim had handed him over to him.
11. But the Rashei Hakohanim incited the crowd that Pilate should instead release Bar-Abba to them.
12. But Pilate, in reply again, was saying to them, What then do you wish [that] I should do with the one whom you call the Melech HaYehudim?
13. And again they cried out, Let him be talui al HaEtz (being hanged on the Tree)! [DEVARIM 21:23]
14. But Pilate was saying to them, Why? What ra'ah has he committed? But they all the more cried out, Let him be talui al HaEtz (being hanged on the Tree)! [DEVARIM 21:23]
15. So Pilate, desiring to placate the crowd, released to them Bar-Abba, and handed over Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach to be scourged [with the flagellum] and to be talui al HaEtz (to be hanged on the Tree, DEVARIM 21:23).
16. And the chaiyalim (soldiers) led away Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach into the courtyard, which is [the] Praetorium, the governor's headquarters, and they called together [the] whole cohort.
