Bible Commentary for Mark 15:8

Wesley's Notes for Mark 15:8


15:7 Insurrection - A crime which the Roman governors, and Pilate in particular, were more especially concerned and careful to punish.

15:9 Will ye that I release to you the king of the Jews - Which does this wretched man discover most? Want of justice, or courage, or common sense? The poor coward sacrifices justice to popular clamour, and enrages those whom he seeks to appease, by so unseasonably repeating that title, The king of the Jews, which he could not but know was so highly offensive to them.
