Lol, one of the things I love about this whole episode is how it is ticking people off. The depiction of Pilate in the actual text doesn't seem that far from what I've read about his depiction in the movie: 17When therefore they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?" 27:18For he knew that because of envy they had delivered him up. 27:19While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him." 27:20Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas, and destroy Jesus. 27:21But the governor answered them, "Which of the two do you want me to release to you?" They said, "Barabbas!" 27:22Pilate said to them, "What then shall I do to Jesus, who is called Christ?" They all said to him, "Let him be crucified!" 27:23But the governor said, "Why? What evil has he done?" But they cried out exceedingly, saying, "Let him be crucified!" 27:24So when Pilate saw that nothing was being gained, but rather that a disturbance was starting, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, "I am innocent of the blood of this righteous person. You see to it." 27:25All the people answered, "May his blood be on us, and on our children!"
