## Luke 23:23-25 in Context (Verses 20–28 KJV)
 
 [20 ](/kjv/luke/23/20) Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/luke/23/21) But they cried, saying, Crucify *him*, crucify him.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/luke/23/22) And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let *him* go.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/luke/23/23) And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/luke/23/24) And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/luke/23/25) And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/luke/23/26) And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear *it* after Jesus.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/luke/23/27) ¶ And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/luke/23/28) But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
 
[Luke 22](/kjv/luke/22) [Luke 24](/kjv/luke/24)
