Trial of Jesus

The trial of Jesus was a legal process documented in the Christian Gospels, occurring after his arrest in Jerusalem. Religious leaders accused him of blasphemy, while Roman authorities, under Pontius Pilate, considered him a potential political threat. Jesus was brought before these authorities for questioning. Despite recognizing his innocence, Pilate ultimately sentenced Jesus to crucifixion, influenced by religious leaders and public pressure. The trial reflects the complex interplay of religious and political factors in ancient Jerusalem, culminating in Jesus’ execution, a pivotal event that led to the Christian belief in his resurrection.
