The fyfth Sermon of the passion.
Matthew xxvii. 11 And Jesus stood before the Governor, and the Governor asked him saying, art thou the King of the Jews; Jesus said unto him, thou sayest it. 12 And when he was accused of the chief priest and Elders, he answered nothing. 13 Then said Pilate unto him, hearest thou not how many things they lay against thee? 14 But he answered him not one word: insomuch that the Governor marvelled greatly. 15 Now at the feast the Governor was wonted to deliver unto the people a prisoner, whom they would. 16 And they had then a notable prisoner called Barabbas. 17 When they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, whether will ye that I let lose unto you Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ? 18 For he knew well, that for envy they had delivered him. 19 Also when he was set down upon the judgement seat, his wife sent to him, saying, have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream, by reason of him. 20 But the chief Priests and the Elders had persuaded the people that they should ask Barabbas & destroy Jesus. 21 Then the Governor answered, and said unto them, whether of the twain will ye that I let lose unto you? and they said Barabbas. ⟨p. 53⟩22 Pilate said unto them, what shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all said unto him, let him be crucified. 23 Then said the Governor, But what evil hath he done? Then they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified. 24 When Pilate saw that he prevailed nothing, but that more tumult was made, he took water & washed his hands before the multitude, saying I am innocent of the blood of this just man: look you unto it. 25 Then answered all the people and said, his blood be upon us, and on our children. 26 Then let he Barabbas loose unto them, and scourged Jesus, and delivered him to be crucified.
