Who was the judge that the Romans brought Jesus to?

Jesus was brought from Caiaphas' house to appear before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea. The Jewish leaders charged Jesus with subversion of both Israel and Rome. Two of their charges were designed especially to get Pilate's attention. The first was that Jesus opposed paying taxes to Caesar and that Jesus claimed to be king. Finding no fault in Him, Pilate summoned Jesus into Herod's palace and questioned Him further. In the course of the conversation, Pilate learned Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction. So Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see Him. Herod had Jesus dressed in a robe and sent back to Pilate. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty.


Was Jesus crucified after a trial that Pilate never wanted?

Pilate found no fault in Jesus so he told the Jewish leaders to try Jesus themselves according to their own laws. Pilate learned that Jesus was a Galilean and was under Herod's jurisdiction so Pilate sent Jesus to Herod, who had heard about Jesus and wanted to see him. When Jesus came back, Pilate told the Jewish leaders that neither he nor Herod could find Jesus guilty of a crime that brought with it the death penalty. Pilate proposed to have Jesus scourged and then released. During passover the Romans had a custom of releasing one Jewish prisoner of the crowd's choosing. Pilate thought they might choose Jesus, but the crowd made clear they wanted him to release a prisoner named Barabbas. The crowd became a mob and with increased intensity called for Pilate to crucify Jesus. Pilate knew his first mandate from Caesar was to keep these people under control. Pilate therefore took a bowl of water and washed his hands, declaring his innocence of the blood of Jesus. I do not suppose Pilate never wanted the trial, only that he knew Jesus was innocent and did not want to see Him crucified.

Who sentences Jesus to death?

Pontius Pilate was, in a major way, responsible for the death of Jesus. He knew Jesus was innocent and wanted to release him. However, the Jewish leaders stirred up the crowd and demanded that he be executed. Pilate was afraid a riot would break out so he washed his hands of the affair and turned Jesus over to the Jews and told them to see to it themselves.


Why are churches teaching that the Jews killed christ?

We'll look at just one of the accounts in the New Testament of the Standard Christian Bible. You can find the account of Jesus's accusers, His trial, and Pilate's attempts to spare Jesus's life in John, Chapters 18 and 19.The story as presented in the book of John is this:The Jewish leaders paid Judas to betray Jesus into their hands.The Jewish leaders, who were armed with torches, lanterns, and weapons, arrested Jesus.After a Jewish trial, Jesus was taken to the Roman governor, Pilate, who told them to judge Jesus themselves.The Jews objected because "we have no right to execute anyone".Pilate took Jesus, and, after questioning Him, told the Jews that there was no basis to charge Him with any crime and asked to release Jesus.They shouted "No." Free Barabbas instead.Pilate had Jesus flogged, but then returned with Jesus to the Jews, at which point the Jews demanded that Pilate crucify Jesus.Pilate refused and told them to do it.But the Jews insisted that according to their law, Jesus had to die.After that, Pilate continued in his attempts to set Jesus free.Again, the Jewish leaders insisted on Jesus's death.Pilate then held a public hearing.The Jewish leaders were there and demanded His crucifixion.Luke adds some additional details. In yet another act of attempting to prove Jesus's innocence, Pilate sent Jesus to King Herod to be questioned. King Herod likewise found no reason for Jesus not to be set free. Still, the leaders of the Jews demanded his death.Matthew 15:24-25 tells us that Pilate, after giving up his attempts to save Jesus's life, washed his hands in water in front of the crowd and told them that he was innocent of Jesus's blood and that they were responsible. The Jewish leaders responded: "His blood is on us and on our children."Pilate succumbed to the political pressure and had Jesus crucified.These are the reasons that Christians take the position that the leadership of the Jewish nation is responsible for the death of Christ.
