This presentation explores the figure of Barabbas, a notable prisoner mentioned in the New Testament. His name means "Son of the Father" or "Son of the Master Teacher," and he is often identified with the title "Jesus Barabbas." Barabbas is described in the Gospels as a notorious prisoner who committed insurrection and murder. During the Passover feast, he was released instead of Jesus, a decision made by the governor. Despite his prominence in the narrative, little good is recorded about him in the Bible. Join us in examining how Barabbas' story contrasts with that of Jesus.
