Charles Ellicott Commentary Mark 15:7

"And there was one called Barabbas, [lying] bound with them that had made insurrection, men who in the insurrection had committed murder." — Mark 15:7 (ASV)

Bound with them that had made insurrection.—The fact that Barabbas was a rebel as well as robber is also stated by St. Luke (Luke 23:19), but St. Mark alone records the fact that his fellow-insurgents were imprisoned with him.
