We continue with “Perspectives on Easter” – our series focused on the people who played both major and minor roles in the Easter narrative, as well as the relevant places, practices, artifacts, and traditions related to Easter. Today we feature a first person monologue from the wife of Pontius Pilate. Although the Bible contains little personal information about Pilate’s wife, various historical and apocryphal records identify her as Claudia Procula.
Scriptures referenced include Mark 5:21-24, 35-43 and Matthew 27.
