Who was the ruler who killed James and imprisoned Peter? Most people would state Pontius Pilate Governor of Judea. However if one reads the texts that is not exactly accurate, as Pilate washed his hands of the killing of Jesus Christ.

-

Pilate was willing to let Jesus Christ go after a public whipping. It was the chief priests and scribes of the temple, who moved against Jesus Christ to have him crucified. They even worked up the crowd when Pilate offered them a choice to free a prisoner during the feast of Passover (Barabbas or Jesus Christ). The people chose Barabbas (a murder) over Jesus Christ and demanded with the Chief Priests and Scribes that Jesus should be crucified.

One can read of this in Matthew 27...
