Arrest and trial of Jesus
Since the Romans did not allow the Jewish authorities to kill anyone, Jesus was then brought to Pontius Pilate.  Pilate was the Roman governor. He also asked Jesus many questions.  Jesus didn't answer some of the questions, but he told Pilate that he was a king.  But he said that his kingdom was "not of this world".  Pilate wanted to release Jesus, but the crowd demanded instead that Jesus be crucified.  To prevent a riot, Pilate agreed to their demand.
