Killing The Messiah The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus of Na

Killing the Messiah reconstructs the trial of Jesus of Nazareth and the roles played by various people, especially Pontius Pilate, in his crucifixion. It places Jesus' trial in the legal context of Roman Judaea to identify the crime he reportedly committed, why he committed it, and the obligations that authorities fulfilled by having him arrested and tried.
