Earl Doherty points out that this is an option no governor of Judea would ever have offered, and there is no record of such a Roman policy anywhere. John Shelby Spong concurs, saying that in his research, he has been able to find no evidence that there was a custom among the Jews of releasing a prisoner at the time of the Passover. In the face of this evidence, it must be considered that Barabbas may have been an allegory created by the author of Mark's Gospel. Spong suggests the original crucifixion story could have been related to the Yom Kippur tradition. One lamb or goat (Jesus) was killed for our sins and one had the sins of the people symbolically transferred to him, after which he was chased away (Barabbas).
Richard Carrier points out that Barabbas means "son of the father" and says that it is an obvious pun on Christ himself. The Jews chose the wrong "son of the father", one who represents the Old Covenant, as well as the scapegoat (the lamb) sent off, bearing the people's sins into the wilderness, while its twin is sacrificed.
