According to the Gospels, when Pontius Pilate was to pardon one
Jewish prisoner in honor of the Passover, he offered the people a
choice between Barabbas the Zealot and a rabbi known as Jesus the
Nazarene. Though this was an actual historical event, their choice
was symbolic as well. Under the yoke of Roman oppression, Barabbas
responded with violence; in contrast, Jesus was willing to forgive.
The Zealot vowed to free the nation; the rabbi showed how to free
the soul. Whom did the people choose? They made the same choice
that we continue to make even today:
