Jewish religious leaders had him arrested and gave him over to Pontius Pilate.
And then Pontius Pilate allowed the crowds to choose to spare one prisoner, and they chose a criminal.
I know there are Jewish people who refuse to acknowledge that any rabbi could ever be corrupt. Which seems strange to me. As a non-church going Christian, I accept the corruption of religious leaders as a fact of life.
