Answer Details
At the final trial before Pilate, the notorious robber who was released instead of Jesus was Barabbas. According to the New Testament, at the trial of Jesus, Pilate offered to release one prisoner as a goodwill gesture towards the Jewish people. The crowd, incited by the religious leaders, demanded the release of Barabbas instead of Jesus, and Pilate granted their request. Barabbas was known to have taken part in a rebellion and committed murder, which made his release a surprising decision.
