From then on Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, “If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king opposes Caesar.”
John 19:12
Pilate was on a sort of probation with Caesar because he had repeatedly antagonized the Jews into rebellion. In saying, "You are not Caesar's friend", they were threatening his relationship with Caesar and therefore his position as governor.
And they went and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
Luke 22:13
This verse ought to remove all questions about what kind of meal #yeshua and the disciples had the night before he was arrested: They killed, roasted, and ate a #passover lamb. If Yeshua did this on the wrong day, then he wasn't Messiah. This tells me that "bein erevim" ("at twilight" or "between the evenings") in Exodus 12:6 does NOT mean that the Passover must be killed in mid-afternoon of Nisan 14.
