Name of prisoner the crowd asked to be released during Jesus' trial?

Barabbas His 'name' was actually Jesus, He was called Barabbas. His name [Jesus] was written in the original Greek Gospel according to Matthew (27:17) but that it was removed or omitted from the Latin 'translation' (around 384 c. e.) and most of the subsequent 'translations' thereafter. "Barabbas" is not a proper name or surname per se' (any more so than is "Christ"), -it is an Aramaic appellation, -the meaning of which is: Bar = Son + Abba = Father (as in 'the Father of us all' or, 'God' if you will).


What was Barabbas name?

Barabbas was the criminal who was released instead of Jesus, at the trial in front of Pontius Pilate. The gospels do not say where he was born, but Jerusalem seems likely. Another possibility is that Barabbas was not a real person. It was the practice of the Jews at the time of Yom Kippur to release one sheep which symbolically carried all the sins of the world and to sacrifice another. It has been pointed out that, in Hebrew, Barabbas means "Son of the Father" and that Jesus claimed to be the Son of the Father and that it was he who carried all the sins of the world. Some scholars suggest that this was an allegory to show that the Jews released the wrong "Son of the Father."
