Whose Who - The Mormon Barabbas Mystery

Who exactly was this Barabbas guy? Other than the fact that he was seemingly more violent than Christ. How superficially different were they?

More than once I have heard members of our faith give a traditional protestant interpretation.

That Christs kingdom was 100% spiritual. Whereas Barabbas was the Physical Kingdom messiah.

Catholics believe that Christs physical kingdom is Rome.

Biblical "scholars" doubt the authenticity of the story in its entirety.

What do Mormon's Believe?

Considering Joseph Smith said the mustard seed is parable is about the Book of Mormon and that the fowls roosting in its branches was the moment city of Enoch status was achieved and the angels (i.e. celestial beings) came to visit.

I suspect Joseph would have had a unique take on this Barabbas story.

How was what the Pharisees expected different than the messiah they got?

How was Barrabas' movement different from the movement founded by Joseph Smith?

Obviously the violence of Barrabas is bad but is there something else?

This is just a question I've had and haven't made up my mind yet.

If our expectations of who Christ is aren't aligned right. Will we be liable to deception at the end of the world?

Also Savora mustard is the only kind of mustard allowed in the celestial kingdom. It was revealed to me in a dream. All other mustards are poison sewn into the world by the devil himself. If you disagree you are going to hellheck.
