Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him.--Comp. John 18:3. The spectacle, so far from moving their pity, excites their passionate hatred, and they frustrate any other cry which may arise by that of "Crucify Him!" (Comp. Matthew 27:22.)Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.--Comp. Notes on John 18:31; John 18:38. "Crucify Him," the words mean, "if you dare to do so; there is no charge on which I can condemn Him; and I will be no party to your act."
