'Penalty' in the Bible

for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.”] And they journeyed on to another village.

A third time he said to them, “Why? What has this man done wrong? I have found in Him no grounds for the death penalty. Therefore, I will have Him whipped and then release Him.”
