Synopsis

Everyone knows the judge of Jesus, Pontius Pilate, from the passion story. But the process detailed in the Gospels does not occur in the historical sources. Conversely, the New Testament knows nothing about the more than ten years of office of the Roman prefect. That's why this unusual, literary biography tells Pilate's life from a double perspective. In the first part we encounter a Roman official and his surroundings: the city of Rome, the imperial court of Tiberius, the province of Judea and its inhabitants. In the second part, the judge of Jesus himself comes to word, focused on that day when the passion of Christ occurred.

With a historical-archaeological guide: on the trail of the prefect in Rome, Israel and Switzerland.
