You who are going to destroy the temple and build it in three days, V 30 come down from the cross and save yourself! AI 41 In Galilee these women had followed him and cared for his needs. Many other women who had come up with him to Jerusalem were also there.
Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died. Then he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb. All rights reserved worldwide.

Early in the morning, on Friday, the chief priests and elders of the Jews led the bound Jesus Christ to trial before Pilate, so that he could confirm the death sentence handed over to Jesus.
But they themselves did not enter the Praetorium in order not to defile themselves before Passover by being in the house of a gentile. Pilate came out to them on the Lithostrotos, "the Pavement," and seeing the members of the Sanhedrin asked, "What accusation do you bring against this man? They answered, "If this man were not an evildoer, we would not have handed Him over to you. They said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death;" and they began to accuse the Saviour saying, "We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that He Himself is Christ the King.
When the chief priests and the elders accused the Saviour, He answered nothing. Pilate again asked Him, "Have you no answer to make? This explains why Jesus has to have two trials. The Sanhedrin has found Jesus guilty of the religious offence of blasphemy.

In doing so they are emphasising the political rather than religious implications of claiming to be the Messiah. I feel this theme of uncovering nasty secrets masks the lessons to be learned and promotes judgementalism.
It seems highly unlikely that the writer s of the Gospels would have created an impression of Pilate that was at variance with the characteristics of a man who contemporary readers would have known from personal experience. I think the presentation of Pilate as a politically susceptible, morally conflicted, three-dimensional bureaucrat makes these passages vibrate with veracity. Perhaps some of these learned people could start by reading the Bible before commenting thereon!
There has been tremendous amounts of suffering inflicted because one group thinks another is at fault. It seems to me that most people forget that Jesus asked the Father to forgive his killers. Pilate from history is identical to his portrayal in the Gospels. All historians in the world think Pilate crucified Jesus. Hence, there is no historical problem here.
