Barabbas .
Barabbas was the criminal that was released at the trial of Jesus.
As a prisoner could be released , the people asked for the release of Barabbas.
A:At the trial of Jesus, Pontius Pilate is said to have offered to free one of his two prisoners as a gift to the Jews for the Passover. The Jews chose to free Barabbas. Barabbas means 'Son of the Father' in Aramaic, so it has been suggested that this episode was a play on words. The Jews, in releasing Barabbas instead of Jesus, had released the wrongSon of the Father.
The New Testament does not specifically list who Barabbas killed. It is only mentioned that he was a criminal and murderer freed in exchange for Jesus's arrest.
Every year one prisoner would be released, but you know that. The prisoner was chosen based on the will of the people, and the people called for Barabbas to be released (Matt. 27:21-22, Mark 15:9-11, John 18:39-40). If you want to know why they wanted Barabbas out instead of Jesus, only they and God know.
