Answer

The synoptic Gospels say that Jesus was arrested and brought to Pontius Pilate because of his attack on the moneychangers. On the other hand, the Gospel of John says that the attack on the moneychangers was his first public act; Jesus was arrested because he raised Lazarus from the dead, causing the priests and Pharisees to fear that people would begin to follow him rather than them.


Jesus was brought before the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, for trial. The charge presented to Pilate was that Jesus called himself "King of the Jews". Pontius Pilate said that he could find no fault with Jesus.

Why Jesus was trialed for treason against the Romans?

Jesus was tried on trumped charges of treason because the ruling sect of the Jews wanted him dead, as they perceived him as a threat to their beliefs. This was their charge of blasphemy, but it was not a capital offense under Roman law. Therefore they had to convince the Romans that Jesus was going to set himself up as a king. Pilate saw through this rouse, but his hands were tied due to the political situation. He tried to get Jesus off, but failed. The sign that Pilate ordered put up on Jesus' cross, INRI, (Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews) was not an explanation of the charges, but of a way of Pilate getting revenge on the Jewish leaders who forced his hand.

Who was Pontius Pilates wife?

Mat 27:19 MKJV(v.19) But as he was sitting down on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him [Pilate], saying, Have nothing to do with that just man, for today because of Him I have suffered many things in a dream.In his notes Robinson says in his RWP [Robinson's Word Pictures] that her name was "Procia":-Mat 27:19 -His wife ... Tradition names her Procla and even calls her a Christian which is not probable. But it was enough to unnerve the weak Pilate as he sat on the judgment-seat up over the pavement.However, Robinson's RWP was first published in 1930 - over 180 years ago - and much new information has since been discovered. One is that the name of Pilate's wife was Claudia Procula and the following details are known about her:-granddaughter of the Emperor Augustusillegitimate daughter of Tiberius' third wife Claudia.Was a royal princessLived in Nabronmarried at 16marriage was arranged by Sejanus [aknown machiavellian Roman politician]wife of the highest Roman official in Judea,Friends with Jairus and Salome whos 12 yr old daughter Semida was healedshe was a secret disciple.tried to save Jesushad vision of Jesus' wounds and blood before flogging had been orderedhad vision of heavenly judgement of mankind with Jesus as vengeful God and JudgeCenturion at cross mentioned by namePontius dismissed from post and sent back to EuropeTheir child [10?] diesShe suffers for her faith in Christendomshe is celebrated on Dec. 24Th Greeks' saints daySee the related links:-[From " The Relationship between Rome and Judea prior to Jesus' public life"[KILMON] @ w w w .historian.net/romejud.html ][From "Claudia Procula, Friend of Mary Magdalene' [WINYARD] @ ww w .marymagdalenebooks.com/e-book-claudia-procula ][From RELICS OF REPENTANCE ***The Letters of Pontius Pilate & Claudia Procula (ISBN 0-9625158-2-5) on "Issana Press" home page @ issanapress.tripod.com/ ]


What was the cruxification of Jesus done by Romans?

Crucifixion (not cruxification) was a form of capital punishment where the condemned was nailed to a cross-shaped wooden beam which was then erected. The person was then left to die. It was used for slaves, pirates and rebels. Crucifixion of Roman citizens was forbidden by Roman law. Pontius Pilates, the Roman governor of Judea, had Jesus crucified because this is what the Jewish judges of the Sanhedrin and the crowd in Jerusalem wanted
