Matthew 27:18

They had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?

While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.
