Pontius Pilate. The same Pontius Pilate who mixed the blood of the Galantiens with their sacrifices. In other words the same Pontius Pilate who killed many Galantiens, (when they went to make sacrifices at the Holy Temple) washed his hands after ordering Jesus to be crucified.

Who was the pilot who crucified Jesus?

There was no pilot who crucified Jesus. The man responsible for sentencing Jesus to his crucifixion was the Roman governor of Judea Pontius Pilate. Although he did not believe that Jesus deserved to be crucified, the people demanded it and he complied. However, after he allowed it, he washed his hands, symbolizing that he did not want to be acknowledged as the man responsible for Jesus' death.


Who pronounce Jesus sentence?

In Matthew chapter 27 (King James Version) begins the trial of Jesus. Although Pilate tried to absolve himself of responsibility (Pilate's wife tried to warn him) he agreed to the death of Jesus as a way to satisfy the Jews. Pilate was the Roman govenorof that area of Israel and didn't want any trouble from the people.It is interesting to note that although Pilate sentenced Christ Jesus to death, to show he didn't want any responsibility for the action he washed his hands in clean water from a bowl. That is where we get our expression "to wash our hands of (something)" whenwe don't want to absolve ourselves of responsibility.

Yes. Jesus said this to Peter: John 21:18-19 - "Amen, Amen, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to dress yourself and go where you wanted; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go." He said this signifying what kind of death he would glorify God. And when he had said this, he said "follow me."

In the Bible who washed his hands to show that he was against Jesus?

No one. Pilate washed his hands to signify that he would not be held responsible for Jesus blood, that is, his death. Pilate here indicated that, contrary to Roman justice, he was condemning an innocent person to death. He was thus not against Jesus but against the way in which the Jews had him backed into a corner and had forced him to do something he rather would not.Matthew 27:2424When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.


What does I washed my hands of you mean?

To "wash one's hands" of a situation (or in this case a person) is to end your association and have nothing more to do with it. If you "washed your hands" of someone, it would mean that you renounced them, and absolved yourself of any further involvement with the person or their problems. This is nominally based on the actions of Pontius Pilate, who (according to Biblical accounts) washed his hands after essentially condemning Jesus to death by declining to free him.
