After Pontious Pilate washed his hands of Jesus' condemnation, saying that he was innocent, the Jews, given a choice between freeing Christ or Barabbas, said "Give us Barrabas! and then, regarding Christ, "Crucify him! Crucify him! HIS BLOOD BE UPON US AND UPON OUR CHILDREN."
@ Picklesfrittlefish Pilate tried to free Christ, but the Jews wouldn't have it. Yes, the Roman soldiers technically killed Christ, but it was because of the Pharisiac Jews insistence that he be killed. The Jews are responsible for the murder of Jesus. PERIOD. How anyone can read the scripters and say different is beyond me. The only question, are they still responsible?
