St. Pilate - E-book - ePub

St. Pilate is the story of the life and conversion of the Military Prefect of Judea at the time of Jesus Christ -- whom he mercilessly crucified. We walk with the young, ambitious warrior through his early life and heroic battles against the German tribes of Arminius in the Teutoborg Forest, to becoming the right hand of the presumptive Emperor, Germanicus Ceasar. His trials with the Sanhedrin, Joseph Caiaphas, and the endless messiahs and rebels of Judea give us an insight to the Statesman Pilate.
Upon the death of Tiberius and the rise of Caligula, he arranges to be exiled to Gaul where he eventually becomes Procurator of the province of Alpes Cotaie. Through the influence of his strong willed Gallic wife, Claudia Procla, and his adjutant and best friend, the Centurion Janarius, he is stubbornly dragged into the world of a rouge sect of Jews called Christians. This is when Pontius Pilate disappears from history and the Christian, Renatus, is born.
