The Report of
Pontius Pilate to Tiberus was regarded as genuine by the early church fathers.
It consists of a letter written by Pontius Pilate, Procurator of Judea, to
Tiberius Caesar, the Emperor of Rome. The letter goes into great detail about
the circumstances of the crucifixion of Christ and events immediately following
Christ's death. In this letter, Pontius Pilate, an eyewitness to these events,
relates many of the miracles performed by Christ. But, most importantly, it
describes in detail the supernatural happenings at the time Christ was
crucified.
Presented below is evidence of the anomalies that were seen and witnessed by
Pontius Pilate as related to Tiberius.
Miraculous Cures by Jesus
And that man wrought many cures, in addition to good works. He made the blind
see; he cleansed lepers; he raised the dead; he healed paralytics who could not
move at all, except that they only had their voice, and the joining of their
bones; and he gave them the power of walking about and running, commanding them
by a single word.
Jesus Raises Lazarus from the Dead
And another mightier work he did, which was strange even with our gods: he
raised up a dead man, Lazarus, who had been dead four days, by a single word
ordering the dead man to be raised, although his body was already corrupted by
the worms that grow in wounds; and that ill-smelling body lying in the tomb he
ordered to run; and as a bridegroom from the bridal chamber, so he came forth
out of the tomb, filled with exceeding fragrance.
Jesus Expels Demons
And some that were cruelly vexed by demons, and had their dwellings in deserts,
and ate the flesh of their own limbs, and lived along with reptiles and wild
beasts, he made to be dwellers in cities in their own houses, and by a word he
rendered them sound-minded; and he made those that were troubled by unclean
spirits to be intelligent and reputable; and sending away the demons in them
into a herd of swine, he suffocated them in the sea.
Jesus Heals A Withered Hand
Another man, again, who had a withered hand, and lived in sorrow, and had not
even the half of his body sound, he rendered sound by a single word.
Jesus Cures A Woman Of A Flow Of Blood
And a woman that had a flow of blood for many years, so that, in consequence of
the flowing of her blood, all the joinings of her bones appeared, and were
transparent like glass; and assuredly all the physicians had left her without
hope, and had not cleansed her, for there was not in her a single hope of
health: once, then, as Jesus was passing by, she took hold of the fringe of his
clothes behind, and that same hour the power of her body was completely
restored, and she became whole, as if nothing were the matter with her, and she
began to run swiftly to her own city Paneas.
Darkness Covers the Whole Earth When Jesus was Crucified
And when he had been crucified, there was darkness over the whole earth, the sun
having been completely hidden, and the heaven appearing dark though it was day,
so that the stars appeared, but had at the same time their brightness darkened,
The Moon Appears as Blood
And the moon, being like blood, did not shine the whole night, and yet she
happened to be at the full.
The Stars and Orion Lament about the Jews
And the stars also, and Orion, made a lament about the Jews, on account of the
wickedness that had been done by them.
The Heavens Light Up At Night
And on the first of the week, about the third hour of the night, the sun was
seen such as it had never at any time shone, and all the heaven was lighted up.
Majestic Men Appear In the Air Along With Angels
And as lightnings come on in winter, so majestic men of indescribable splendour
of dress and of glory appeared in the air, and an innumerable multitude of
angels crying out, and saying: Glory in the highest to God, and on earth peace,
among men goodwill: come up out of Hades, ye who have been kept in slavery in
the underground regions of Hades.
Mountains and Hills Shaken and Great Chasms Open Up
And at their voice all the mountains and hills were shaken, and the rocks were
burst asunder; and great chasms were made in the earth, so that also what was in
the abyss appeared.
Dead Men Are Raised Up
And there were seen in that terror dead men raised up, as the Jews that saw them
said: We have seen Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the twelve patriarchs,
that died two thousand five hundred years ago; and we have seen Noah manifestly
in the body.
The Dead Walk About Singing Praises to God
And all the multitude walked about, and sang praises to God with a loud voice,
saying: The Lord our God that has risen from the dead has brought to life all
the dead, and has plundered Hades, and put him to death.
All Night the Light Did Not Cease
All that night therefore, my lord, O king, the light ceased not.
Many Jews Who Spoke Against Jesus Died
And many of the Jews died, and were engulphed and swallowed up in the chasms in
that night, so that not even their bodies appeared. Those, I say, of the Jews
suffered that had spoken against Jesus.
Synagogues That Were Against Jesus Destroyed
And one synagogue was left in Jerusalem, since all those synagogues that had
been against Jesus were engulphed.
Letter of Pilate To
Herod
The following
letter written by Pilate the Governor of Judea is in response to the letter
written by Herod in which Herod describes all the ills that have befallen him
and his household since the crucifixion of Christ. Pilate speaks of the many
supernatural occurrences he himself had confirmed concerning the death and
subsequent resurrection of Jesus.
Pilate Speaks Of The Resurrection Of Christ
1. Know and see, that in the day when you
delivered Jesus to me, I took pity on myself and testified by washing my hands
that I was innocent concerning him who rose from the grave after three days, and
had performed your pleasure in him, for you wanted me to be associated with you
in his crucifixion. 2.
But I now learn from the executioners and from the soldiers who watched his
sepulchre that he rose from the dead. And I have especially confirmed what was
told me: that he appeared bodily in Galilee, in the same form, and with the same
voice, and with the same doctrine, and with the same disciples, not having
changed in anything, but preaching with boldness his resurrection and an
everlasting kingdom.
Procla, The Wife of Pilate, Has Visions And Goes To See Christ For Herself
3. And behold, heaven and earth rejoice; and
behold, Procla my wife is believing in the visions which appeared unto her when
you sent that I should deliver Jesus to the people of Israel, because of the
ill-will they had. 4.
Now when Procla, my wife, heard that Jesus was risen and had appeared in
Galilee, she took with her Longinus the centurion and twelve soldiers, the same
who had watched at the sepulchre, and went to greet the face of Christ, as if to
a great spectacle, and saw him with his disciples.
Jesus Speaks to Procla
5. Now while they were standing and wondering,
and gazing at him, he looked at them and said to them, What is it? Do you
believe in me? Procla, know that in the covenant God gave to the fathers, it is
said that everybody who had perished should live by means of my death, which you
have seen. And now you see that I live, whom you crucified. And I suffered many
things, till I was laid in the sepulchre. But now, hear me and believe in my
Father -- God who is in me. For I loosed the cords of death and broke the gates
of Hades, and my coming shall be in the future.
Herod Hears A Great Voice From Heaven And A Dreadful Thunder. The Earth Trembles
8. And when we drew near to him, O Herod, a
great voice was heard from heaven, and dreadful thunder, and the earth trembled
and gave forth a sweet smell, like to which was never perceived even in the
temple of Jerusalem.
The Post-Resurrection Body Of Jesus Bore The Scars Of The Crucifixion
12. Now our Lord drew near and raised up me and
my wife, and the Romans. I looked at him and saw there were on him the scars of
his cross.
Jesus Is Glorified On High By All He Created
13. And he said, That which all the righteous
fathers hoped to receive, and saw not -- in your time the Lord of Time, the Son
of Man, the Son of the Most High, who is forever, arose from the dead and is
glorified on high by all that he created, and established for ever and ever.
Letter
of Herod To Pilate The Governor
The letters of Herod and
Pilate definitely connect the death of Christ to Roman History. Three of these
letters can be found in the British Museum in a Syriac MS written in the sixth
or seventh century. The letter of Herod to Pilate The Governor gives us a
detailed overview of what befell Herod after the crucifixion of Christ. The
following excerpts from the letter show how the divine judgments of a
supernatural God are carried out.
The Death Of Herod's Daughter
1. I am in
great anxiety. I write these things to you, that when you have heard them you
may be grieved for me. For as my daughter Herodias, who is dear to me, was
playing upon a pool of water that had ice upon it, it broke under her and all
her body went down, and her head was cut off and remained on the surface of the
ice. And behold, her mother is holding her head upon her knees in her lap, and
my whole house is in great sorrow.
Herod Speaks Of The Evil Done
To John The Baptist
3. And it is
certain that because of the many evil things which were done by me to John the
Baptist, and because I mocked the Christ, behold I receive the reward of
unrighteousness, for I have shed much blood of others' children upon the earth.
Herod's Son Dies
4. My son
Azbonius also is in the agony of the hour of death.
Herod Himself if Afflicted To
The Point Of Death
5. And I too am
in affliction and great trial, because I have the dropsy and am in great
distress, because I persecuted the introducer of baptism by water, which was
John. Therefore, my brother, the judgments of God are righteous.
12. I send you
the earrings of my daughter and my own ring, that they may be for you a memorial
of my decease. For already do worms begin to issue from my body, and lo, I am
receiving temporal judgment, and I am afraid of the judgment to come.
Herod's Wife Is Blinded
6. And my
wife, again, through all her grief for her daughter, is become blind in her left
eye, because we desired to blind the Eye of righteousness.
Afflictions On Priest And Writers Of The Law
7. There is
no peace to the doers of evil, says the Lord. For already great affliction comes
upon the priests and upon the writers of the law because they delivered unto you
the Just One.
