Commentary on Matthew 27:22
What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified (Σταυρωθήτω)—The Greek imperative staurōthētō (let him be crucified) demands the most shameful, agonizing death Rome inflicted. Crucifixion was so horrific that Roman citizens were exempt; it was for slaves and rebels.Pilate's question hangs over history: 'What shall I do with Jesus?' Every person must answer. Neutrality is impossible—even Pilate's attempted non-decision became a decision. The crowd's unanimous demand (pantes, all) shows mass complicity in deicide.
