In the Gospel of Luke, Pilate finds that Jesus, being from Galilee, belonged to Herod Antipas' jurisdiction, and so he decides to send Jesus to Herod. After questioning Jesus and receiving very few replies, Herod sees Jesus as no threat and returns him to Pilate. It was noted that Pilate appears as an advocate pleading Jesus' case rather than as a judge in an official hearing.BOOK, Bond, Helen Katharine, Pontius Pilate in History and Interpretation, Cambridge University Press, 1998, 159,weblink 0-521-63114-9, In the Gospel of John (18:28â19:13), his "to-ing and fro-ing", that is, Pilate's back and forth movement from inside the praetorium to the outside courtyard, indicates his "wavering position".Rudolf Schnackenburg, John, vol. 3 (New York: Crossroads, 1980-90), 446 n. 5.- the content below is remote from Wikipedia

Background
As prefect of Roman Judea, Pilate was subordinate to the Roman legate in Syria. Pilate resided on the coast at Caesarea Maritima. On those occasions when he had to be in Jerusalem, he used the palace compound built by Herod the Great as his praetorium or headquarters.BOOK, The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus: Texts and Commentary, Chapman, David Wallace, Mohr Siebeck, 2015, 9783161537868,weblink Schnabel, Eckhard J., 161, The palace was located in the western part of the upper city and served as both a comfortable residence and fortress.Early pilgrims to Jerusalem generally identified the praetorium with the Antonia Fortress, where the traditional Way of the Cross begins. However, the archaeological evidence, which dates the fortress remnants to the 2nd century CE, as well as the tense situation requiring Pilate to be near the Second Temple as the center of Passover activity, support the Herod's Palace location.The Gospel of Mark uses the word aulÄ ("hall", "palace") to identify the praetorium. Fearing defilement, the Sanhedrin elders did not enter the court, and Pilate's discussion with them occurred outside the praetorium.Bromiley, Geoffrey W. (1995), International Standard Bible Encyclopedia. Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. vol. K-P. p. 929. Outside the praetorium proper, there was an area called the Pavement.{{bibleverse|John|19:13}} Pilate's judgement seat (), in which he conversed with the elders, was located there.Gospel narratives
Overview
{{Death of Jesus}}The trial of Jesus is retold in all four canonical gospels, in Matthew 26:57â27:31, Mark 14:53â15:20, Luke 22:54â23:26, and John 18:13â19:16.JOURNAL, Adelbert Denaux, 1998,weblink Het lijden van Jezus Christus in het Nieuwe Testament, Kunsttijdschrift Vlaanderen, 47, 269, 66â68, nl, The trial can be subdivided into four episodes:- the Sanhedrin trial of Jesus (before Caiaphas or Annas);
- the trial of Jesus at Pilate's court (according to Luke also briefly at the court of Herod Antipas);
- Pilate's consideration of the crowd's opinion to give Barabbas amnesty and condemn Jesus to death; and
- the abduction of Jesus by Roman soldiers (according to John the chief priests) and the mistreatment and/or mocking of Jesus (according to Luke and John, this happened before Jesus was condemned by Pilate, according to Mark and Matthew not until after his condemnation).
Commentary
Philo, who held a negative view of Pilate, mentions him ordering executions without trials.{{sfn|Chapman|Schnabel|2015|p=168}}Archaeologist Shimon Gibson argues that recent excavations have uncovered a monumental gateway on the western side of Herod's palace (the praetorium) which could be the place where the trial of Jesus took place. He also notes that "these archeological remains fit very well with Johnâs description of the place of Jesusâ temporary incarceration and the trial in front of Pilate, and with the two topographical features that are mentioned by him, the lithostrotos and gabbatha."BOOK, The World of Jesus and the Early Church: Identity and Interpretation in Early Communities of Faith, Gibson, Shimon, Hendrickson Publishers, 2011, 978-1-59856-825-7, 97â118, Evans, Craig A., The Trial of Jesus at the Jerusalem Praetorium: New Archaeological Evidence,weblinkNarrative comparison
