Unbind him and let him go
Jesus said to them, “Unbind him, and let him go.”
He gives the disciples the loosing of the bonds: he himself makes alive; they set free.
Greek
Λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Λύσατε αὐτὸν καὶ ἄφετε αὐτὸν ὑπάγειν.
Τοῖς μαθηταῖς δίδωσιν τὴν λύσιν τῶν δεσμῶν· αὐτὸς μὲν ζωοποιεῖ, ἐκεῖνοι δὲ ἀπολύουσιν.
