Pontius Pilate was the Roman Leader in Jerusalem and he is the man who decided Jesus’ fate. He had everyone screaming at him telling him to crucify Jesus and he gave into peer pressure. His wife had a dream and woke up and told him not to kill Jesus.
He had given into peer pressure and is a great example of it. We can learn that not only it’s bad to give into peer pressure but sometimes it may seem like there is no other way. We can all learn from this and know that giving into peer pressure can lead to horrible consequences.
In the end Pontius pilate isn’t necessarily a bad person but it all came up to him and he ended up giving in. And it was technically Gods plan all along. So in the end he isn't really a good man but he isn’t bad either.
Really clever reflection at the end of this post about Pontius Pilate, Ardan. You have really thought deeply about him and his role in Holy Week. Great effort - you continue to impress with the quality of your writing.
