(John 18:40) That Barabbas was certainly more than a simple thief is clear from Luke 23:19, which states that he "had been thrown into prison for a certain sedition occurring in the city and for murder."
(Yohane 18:40) Hakunene Barabasi a ri khamba lerikulu hilaha swi vekiweke erivaleni hakona eka Luka 23:19, leyi vulaka leswaku u "hoxiwe ekhotsweni hikwalaho ka ku pfukela mfumo ko karhi loku humeleleke emutini ni hikwalaho ka ku dlaya hi vomu."
