The case for Pontius Pilate


p iL A T E ! One word this Easter which will bring scornful thoughts from the minds of most Christians. “ Suffered under Pontius Pilate,” we will cry- out in our creed.


Bui I would ask you to tear your minds away from this image of him, for the bare fact is, Pontius Pilate was the only man who tried to save Jesus. That unhappy Roman name which lias been handed down in derision, and received scorn in every generation, should really be looked on more with admiration and respect.


Respect Pilate because he tried his best, if not to spare Jesus' agony, at least to save his life.


Try to imagine the scene now; it great assembly of priests and a seething, fiercely passionate crowd. They were accusing Jesus on three charges of perverting the nation, refusing to pay tribute and of calling himself a king.

Pilate could have easily given lo the Jews the licence to kill Christ that they wanted, and thereby prevented any possible uprisings.


But he was not the hateful character we teach our children about, and he decided to drop the first two charges, and after a few minutes turned to the mut­ tering crowd and said, “ T find in him no fault at all.”


Pilate having a trained Roman mind could not understand the unearthly royalty that Jesus was pleading, but on the other hand could see that he was a great deal more innocent titan the raving bearded sweating mob that was accusing him.


So Pilate had tried his best, and how many of you would have done the same in his place?


However, the easiest and most human tiling to'do with a dis­ agreeable problem is to give it to someone else! This is what Pilate did, sending Jesus to the despicable Herod Antipas.


But tlie ignorant Herod only contented himself with insults and sent Jesus back to the perplexed Pilate. How anyone now can say that Jesus "suf­ fered under Pontius Pilate” I do not know. To be faced with either carrying out Roman justice and setting free this man he thought innocent, or to have a bloodthirsty uprising on his hands, is a question that would make most of us shirk.


But. Pilate again tried to help Jesus, and a flash of inspiration came he remembered that it had always been a Paschal


boon to liberate some con­ demned prisoner a t the feast: thLs could prove a way out or the difficulty.


How degrading for Pilate there­ fore when the rabble saw through his plan and outwitted him by asking for another — a man who was a thief and a robber — Barabbasl And every time the Roman governor asked the crowd what he should do to the one who had been hailed with a thousand hosannas only five days before, there came a thousand cries ot "Crucify."


What would you have done? With every Jew despising him for beinn a Roman, and every Roman despising him for not daring to risk an uprising of the Jews, the hardest thing to do would have been to rcloasc


Jesus.


Pilate was no fool. He knew that .if this trouble was not solved it, would rear its ugly head again and' again. So. witli a human weakness that had stood more than yours or mine could have, he gave in, and- Christ was scourged.


But even aRer they had done this and put all the ironic symbols of kingship on him, Pilate again strove to try and help him. As Jesus's figure appeared, with the signs of blows, spitting and blood all over him, Pilate cried out involutarily at the piteous sight, "Behold the Man!”


But the crowd had tasted blood, and blood they meant to have. The weary Roman told them to, “ Take him and crucify him. for I find no fault in


However, this judge again roused himself when Lite crowd told him that Jesus had to die because he had made himself the son of God, so Pilate offered him a way out by pub­ licly asking him.


him.” What an admission for a Roman judge!!

Of course now it was too lale, but Jesas himself in a way forgave him. He said that Pilate had committed a sin, but that it was not as great as that of Judas and the accusers there who were betraying Jiim. Even Pilate's last flash of noble con­ viction. when ho despairingly shouted, "Behold your king,” could do nothing.


In fact it was laughable to that raucous mob to think of call­ ing this beaten, insulted suf­ ferer their king.


And to finish it all, when Pilate asked "Shall I crucify your king?” the mob shouted back, " We have no king but Caesar.” This was something he could no: deny, there was no way out


now.


At the thought of the old Tib- crious Caesar hiding in his gloomy palaco, with his poison­ ous suspicions and dosperate revenge, Pilate trembled. It would be treason it he let Jesus go now.


•Mil! washed his hands, hut could he wash his heart? This agony was to lead to Pilate’s down­ fall in later years, and finally his suicide.


So that was that, and he washed / his. hands of the whole afrnir.
