What Happened to Barabbas?

Question:

What happened to Barabbas?

Answer:

There is nothing in the New Testament that tells us anything about Barabbas after he is released. Traditional early Christian sources also don’t mention anything about his fate. Later legends would tell either of his conversion or of his death shortly thereafter in a failed rebellion.
