-[quote]44 said: Are you suggesting there was only a small group who opposed Jesus, and the majority of people actually supported his cause? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You haven't answered the question.[/quote] There were probably thousands, but maybe not many of them the followers of Jesus as they could of been in hinding for fear the same thing could happen to them.. Remember the apostles hid and Peter denied knowing him out of fear. Could be that there were more of Barabas's friends and cohorts who wanted him freed...Remember Barabas was accused of killing a Roman solider and Jesus only crime was inciting a riot among the roman provence. Barabas was of a group of extremeist that wanted to over thow the roman occupation and had many other followers who felt the same way.. Given the climate around that time, its possible they wanted to see him freed as he was the leader of their cause. So that would explain why.. Jesus was not freed. But that really was no suprise to Jesus as he knew what was about the to happen to him would fulfill all rightousness..and seal a lasting unbreakable covenant with us.
