And the multitude crying aloud,.... The Vulgate Latin and Ethiopic versions read, and when the "multitude", or "people went up", to the place called the pavement, where the judgment seat was; and so it is read in Beza's most ancient copy; but the former reading is to be preferred:
began to desire him to do as he had ever done to them: that is, release a prisoner to them, as he had done at every passover, since he had been a governor over them.

Verse 8. The multitude crying aloud] αναβοησας. The word itself strongly marks the vociferations, or, to come nearer the original word, the bellowing of the multitude. It signifies, properly, a loud and long cry, such as Christ emitted on the cross. See the whole history of these proceedings against our Lord treated at large, on Matt. 27. Mt 27:1-26, &c.

And the multitude went up and Began to ask him to do as he was wont to do unto them. Went up (anabav). This is the reading to be preferred to the old reading, "crying aloud" (anabohsav). The reading anaba is supported by the Sinaitic, the Vatican, and the Cambridge manuscripts; also by the Old Italic, the Gothic, and other versions. The Aethiopic Version combines the two," going up and crying aloud." The geographical position of Pilate"s residence quite justifies the use of the term.
