When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them,“ Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up.While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying,“ Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things today in a dream because of him.”Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.But the governor answered them,“ Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” They said,“ Barabbas!”Pilate said to them,“ What then shall I do to Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said to him,“ Let him be crucified!”But the governor said,“ Why? What evil has he done?” But they cried out exceedingly, saying,“ Let him be crucified!”So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying,“ I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it.”All the people answered,“ May his blood be on us, and on our children!”Then he released to them Barabbas, but Jesus he flogged and delivered to be crucified.

Yahweh will forgive her, because her father has forbidden her.“ If she has a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips with which she has bound her soul,and her husband hears it, and says nothing to her in the day that he hears it; then her vows shall stand, and her pledges with which she has bound her soul shall stand.But if her husband forbids her in the day that he hears it, then he makes void her vow which is on her and the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul. Yahweh will forgive her.

Far from it! As Yahweh lives, there shall not one hair of his head fall to the ground; for he has worked with God today!” So the people rescued Jonathan, that he didn’t die.

asking a favor against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem; plotting to kill him on the way.However Festus answered that Paul should be kept in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart shortly.“ Let them therefore”, he said,“ that are in power among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong in the man, let them accuse him.”When he had stayed among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and on the next day he sat on the judgment seat, and commanded Paul to be brought.When he had come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing against him many and grievous charges which they could not prove,while he said in his defense,“ Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I sinned at all.”But Festus, desiring to gain favor with the Jews, answered Paul and said,“ Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem, and be judged by me there concerning these things?”

How shall we provide wives for those who remain, since we have sworn by Yahweh that we will not give them of our daughters to wives?”They said,“ What one is there of the tribes of Israel who didn’t come up to Yahweh to Mizpah?” Behold, no one came from Jabesh Gilead to the camp to the assembly.For when the people were counted, behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead there.The congregation sent twelve thousand of the most valiant men there, and commanded them, saying,“ Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the little ones.This is the thing that you shall do: you shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman who has lain with a man.”They found among the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead four hundred young virgins who had not known man by lying with him; and they brought them to the camp to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.The whole congregation sent and spoke to the children of Benjamin who were in the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them.Benjamin returned at that time; and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh Gilead. There still weren’t enough for them.The people grieved for Benjamin, because Yahweh had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.Then the elders of the congregation said,“ How shall we provide wives for those who remain, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?”They said,“ There must be an inheritance for those who are escaped of Benjamin, that a tribe not be blotted out from Israel.However, we may not give them wives of our daughters, for the children of Israel had sworn, saying,‘ Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin.’”They said,“ Behold, there is a feast of Yahweh from year to year in Shiloh, which is on the north of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah.”They commanded the children of Benjamin, saying,“ Go and lie in wait in the vineyards,and see, and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards, and each man catch his wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.It shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, that we will say to them,‘ Grant them graciously to us, because we didn’t take for each man his wife in battle, neither did you give them to them; otherwise you would now be guilty.’”The children of Benjamin did so, and took wives for themselves according to their number, of those who danced, whom they carried off. They went and returned to their inheritance, built the cities, and lived in them.
