John: Pilate’s Interrogation Of Jesus

CHRISTIANITY
About this episode

“What is truth?”

That was Pilate’s question.

It was a great question – too bad he didn’t wait for an answer.

Pontius Pilate asked Jesus a number of things in John 18 – and was befuddled by Christ’s responses. We will consider their unique conversation in today’s study.

Questions We’ll Address:

A) Who was Pilate, and what was his background?

B) Why did the Jewish leaders take Jesus to Pilate?

C) Why did the people demand the release of Barabbas?
