Luke 23:20-22

International Children’s Bible

²⁰ Pilate wanted to let Jesus go free. So he told this to the crowd. ²¹ But they shouted again, “Kill him! Kill him on a cross!”

²² A third time Pilate said to them, “Why? What wrong has he done? I can find no reason to kill him. So I will have him punished and set him free.”
