He was the local govenor. He was a judge by virtue of his office. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neither, Pontius Pilate was the Roman governor appointed to govern Roman province of Judea by the Emperor Tiberius in Roam.
Pilate was not Emperor, he was Governor.
Emperor Tiberius was the head of Rome. It was not his place to deal with the Jews. It was Pilate and Herod's responsibility to deal with the Jew's complaint about Jesus claiming to be the King of the Jews. They heard his testimony and that was enough for the local governing Romans. Tiberius did not need to deal with the matter.
Pontius Pilate was the prefect of Judea form the 11th to the 22nd year of the reign of Tiberius (26-36). However, he did not rule Judea. Only the emperor was a ruler everywhere in the empire. Pilate was an official of the emperor. His position administrative one. He was not even a provincial governor as Judea was a satellite of the Roman Province of Syria. Therefore, Pilate was a subordinate of the legate (governor) of Syria, whose position was also an administrative one, not a ruling one.
Even though Pilate judged Jesus, C easer Augustus was the ruler. The people shouted If you let him go then you are not Caesar friend. But remember, Caesar, at the time of Jesus' death was the title of the Roman emperor. The ancients never used the word emperor. they called him "Caesar". The "Caesar" who was the emperor at the time of Jesus' death was Tiberius.
No, Jesus was crucified during the reign of Tiberius Caesar, who was the Roman emperor during 14-37 AD.

Pontius Pilate was governor of the fifth prefect of Roman province in Judaea. He is the one who allowed the Jews to crucify Jesus. The emperor at the time was Tiberius.

Tiberius Ceasar would have been the emperor during the period of Jesus' death. Pontius Pilate would have been Prelate, or Governor of Jerusalem.
It was C easer, as the mob shouted to Pilate, if you release Jesus then you are not Ceasers friend. Howevr it was Tiberius Caesar who was the emperor. Tiberius had been adoptd by Augustus so therefore was "Caesar", which was his family name. In time, (and possibly by the time that the N.T. was written), "Caesar" had become a title for the ruling emperors.
It is believed that Pontius Pilate, Prefect of the Roman provice of Judaea from the year 26 to 36, was the man chiefly responsible for sending Jesus to the cross.Pilate is best known as the man who is said to have presided over the trial of Jesus and ordered his crucifixion.While all of the above is true, the question was pertaining to a Roma emperor, not to an official. The emperor at the time of the crucifixion was Tiberius.
The Emperor of Rome at the time of Jesus' death was Tiberius Claudius Nero Caesar, but he did not kill Jesus. The only way Rome had a part in Jesus' death is that the land of Judah was under Roman control and the Jews could not put a person to death but had to appeal to Rome to crucify a person. The Jewish leaders wanted Jesus dead and so they appeal to Pontius Pilate, who was the Procurator (like a governor) to put Jesus to death. He obliged them.
He was procurator of Judaea from 26 to 36 A.D. His rule though was very inflexible and unpopular. He was summoned back to Rome by the Emperor Tiberius to explain why he a messed up so badly but the Emperor died before he got there. Nothing else is really known. One legend says he committed suicide. Others though say he became a Christian and the Abyssinian church reckons him a saint. For more detail try: newadvent.org
