Passover: Prisoner Released At, by the Romans

Now it was the governor’s custom at the feast to release to the crowd a prisoner of their choosing.

Now it was Pilate’s custom at the feast to release to the people a prisoner of their choosing.

Therefore I will punish Him and release Him.”

But it is your custom that I release to you one prisoner at the Passover. So then, do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
