When archaeologists at Caesarea Maritima uncovered a broken inscription that named Pontius Pilate, they brought to light one of the few contemporary references to the Roman prefect of Judea. Historian Paul L. Maier fills in the details in this highly acclaimed historical novel. How did Pilate become prefect, and where did he end up? What really happened at that most famous trial? Was Pilate motivated by cowardice, expediency, or necessity? Maier unforgettably brings to life the political intrigues and cultural clashes of first-century Judea. 384 pages, hardcover from Kregel.
