The Punishment of Barabbas

John Maltas

Whatever happened to Barabbas?
You remember him, the people’s choice.
Was he part of a scheme, a plan?
Whose plan or plans?
God’s? high priest’s? Romans’? revolutionaries’?

If so, and the people had chosen the other guy, what then?
Would the punishment of Barabbas have been any more just?
John Maltas is pursuing an Undeclared Baccalaureate.
