What the source reads — (the earliest Greek has no such verse)
What this version reads — (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)
The note on the festival release is absent from the earliest Greek and its position varies; likely drawn from Matthew 27:15 / Mark 15:6. In the KJV.
