Would Barabbas be aware that
Jesus’ death meant he was freed?
The guilty free: so great a contrast,
– by death, the Guiltless met a need.
Freed from what? From Roman justice, –
for a second chance, but I
now acquitted by God’s justice:
in my place Christ chose to die.
Pilate and the crowd chose badly;
we can choose to compromise,
or neglect, – or give allegiance,
and enjoy his rich supplies.

Hi Rhiannon
Hi Rhiannon
I've always wondered what happened to Barabbas after Jesus' death. I read somewhere that his name was Jesus Barrabbas - but I doubt with any historical backup.
