The NT story about Pilate and the cruxification of Jesus has so many problems with the text and story.
1- first if Pilate would have allowed an insurrectionist, a murderer of Rome, free , Pilate would have been executed.
2- Pilate did not like the Jews, this is very well documented in hostory, why would he go out of his way and surrender to what the jews wanted. The NT clearly says that pilate didn;t want to do it, but the crowds wanted him dead. This doesn't fit with what history says of Pilate.
3-There is recorded event or custom of allowing a person go on passover in either Roman or Jewish writings. This is the only event of this type to occur
4- The gospel of Matthew says in chapter 28 that a guard was posted to the tomb and a Roman seal was placed on the tomb, In the next chapter, the aythor of Matthew says that the Jews made up a story that they paid the guards with a large sun of money and told them to say they fell asleep and the discples stole the body. This story would never fly, the guards would have been executed and why would they even try to help the Jews, they didn;t like the Jews. The gospel says that when the governer hears the story he will be satisified, but that's a lie, the guards would be dead.
5-When cruxicifing people the Romans never gave them tomb's or allowed them a decent burial, they were left for the vultures to clean up. The gospels say that 2 thieves were hung next to Jesus, but Rome would not have cruxified thieves, In the Roman Empire, historians say, crucifixion was applied to the lower classes, mainly slaves and foreigners. It also was used in response to any actions that were seen as threatening to the empire, such as political agitation, piracy and slave revolts. These would be considered capital offenses.
6-The Romans are the nice people in the gospels and the Jews are the enemies, but yet history again says that the Romans were ruthless, but the jews lived righteous lives.
7-throughout the gospels we hear that the jews feared the crowds and multitudes that followed Jesus. During the alleged cruxifxion we have the cheif preists talking everyone into saying crucify Jesus, what happened to all those multitudes that loved Jesus. The story takes a weird turn where for no reason the crowds are all anti-jesus know, but through all the gospels wanted to follow jesus and have them be there teacher.
8- when pilate asked what should I do with the one whom is called king of the jews, the cheif preists allegedly yelled we have no king, but ceasar. This is blasphemy for any Jew, this idea is just revolting to any jew to say this.
9-The whole trail by night, the jews had strict laws and there was to be no meeting at nighttime for trails. This doesn;t fit into what Jews did and how they did it, they were very meticouls and followed the rules they had. I have a hard time believing they would break there own rules.
