A:
The author of Luke's Gospel was anxious not to be seen as blaming the Romans for the crucifixion of Jesus, as that could arouse charges of treason, to the discomfort of the Christian community. In order to demonstrate Pontius Pilate's extreme unwillingness to find Jesus guilty, he wrote that Pilate sent Jesus to Herod Antipas, who happened to be visiting Jerusalem at the time - this is a story that is contradicted in the other gospels, not so much by choice but because the other authors made no allowance for it.
Since it was already tradition that Jesus was tried and found guilty by Pontius Pilate, Luke has Herod unwilling to try Jesus, sending him back for Pilate to deal with him. The two became good friends after this, and Luke implies that their mutual reluctance to execute Jesus was instrumental in this friendship.

What is the relationship between Pilate and Herod?
Apparently not much of a relationship. Pilate was Governor of Judea. Herod Antipas was district ruler of neighboring Galilee. (There were many other in the line of Herod's." Actually Pilate and Herod had been enemies, possibly because of certain accusations that Herod had leveled against Pilate. But on the last day of Jesus' earthly life, when Jesus was brought before Pilate; Pilate had heard that Jesus was a Galilean. Herod was visiting in Jerusalem at the time; so Pilate sent Jesus to Herod Antipas, for Pilate had experienced trouble with the Galileans. This move on Pilate's part pleased Herod and they became friends. Acts 4:27 connects the two rulers as colluding against Jesus.

What did Pontius Pilate and Herod Antipas have to do with the death of Jesus?
A:In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and John, Pontius Pilate alone tried Jesus and sentenced him to death, although most unwillingly. In the Gospel of Luke, Pontius Pilate was asked by the religious authorities to try and sentence Jesus but, being unwilling to sentence an innocent man and learning that Herod Antipas was in Jerusalem, sent Jesus to Herod to be sentenced. Herod, in turn, was unwilling to sentence Jesus and so left Pilate with this terrible responsibility.
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.

Why did Pontius Pilate send Jesus to Herod?
A:The early Christians knew that they depended very much on the forbearance of the Roman authorities and were careful not to offend the Romans in any of their writings. Each of the gospels had the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate, show great reluctance in sentencing Jesus to death. Mark begins by having Pilate offer to free on of his two prisoners, thinking that the Jews would choose Jesus, but they chose Barabbas instead. Matthew elaborates this account by having Pilate wash his hands, to show himself innocent of the crime. John even has Pilate accompany Jesus to the crucifixion and argue with the priests about the sign that called Jesus the king of the Jews. It is in Luke that we have Pilate show his reluctance by calling for Herod Antipas to try Jesus. The reasoning was that Jesus was from Galilee and therefore came under Herod's jurisdiction. For the story to continue, Herod had to send Jesus back to Pilate for trial, which he did.
