There’s a reason that the only direct quote from Pilate is “What IS truth?”

I believe in Pilate`s case it was a matter of being honest about not believing in any particular thing, and really not knowing.

That is far from the only statement of Pilate recorded in the Gospels.

The 23rd chapter of Luke records numerous quotations, and others found in other Gospels.
