This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
17. συνηγμένων κ.τ.λ. In accordance, probably, with the custom named, Mat 27:15, an appeal was made to the people, not to the Sanhedrin. Pilate was sitting on the tribunal to ascertain the popular decision; at this point he was interrupted by his wife’s messengers, and while he was engaged with them, the chief priests employed themselves in persuading the people to demand Barabbas rather than Christ.
