Excuse me, I thought Pontius Pilate was the man who washed his hands -- the Sanhedrin crying out, "His blood be upon us and our children!" Consulting the original text, Sanctum Jesu Christi Evangelium Secundum Matthaeum,
27:20 Principes autem sacerdotum et seniores persuaserunt populis ut peterent Barabbam, Iesum vero perderent. Respondens autem praeses ait illis: Quem vultis vobis de duobus dimitti? At illi dixerunt: Barabbam. Dicit illis Pilatus: Quid igitur faciam de Iesu, qui dicitur Christus. Dicunt omnes: Crucifigatur. Ait illis praeses: Quid enim mali fecit? At illi magis clamabant dicentes: Crucifigatur.Videns autem Pilatus quia nihil proficeret, sed magis tumultus fieret, accepta aqua, lavit manus coram populo dicens: Innocens ego sum a sanguine iusti huius: vos videritis. Et respondens universus populus dixit: Sanguis eius super nos et super filios nostros. Tunc dimisit illis Barabbam, Iesum autem flagellatum tradidit eis, ut crucifigeretur.
There's your authoritative text, right there, which you ought to consult before making rash attributions of responsibility. Pilate handed Jesus over to the priest-led mob, who decided his fate.
I'm not in the habit of arguing about Bible passages with people [much less those in untranslated Latin], and certainly not with anyone as egotistical and unremittingly condescending as you.
However, I will refer you to John Chapter 19 for my understanding of Pilate's responsibility for Christ's death sentence.
19:15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.
19:16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
Let me add that I find your acceptance of Pilate's attempt to clean his hands of Christ's death and your impassioned defense of his innocence of responsibility in the matter, an interesting insight to your world view.
