* Pontius Pilate.
Pontius Pilate governed Judea ten years under the emperor
Tiberius, from his 13th to his 23rd year A.D. 26; to 36; but,
having exercised great cruelties against the Samaritans, they
complained to Vitellius, governor of Syria, who sent
Marcellus, one of his friends, to superintend Judea, and
ordered Pilate to Rome, to give an account of his conduct to
Tiberius. The emperor was dead before he arrived; but it is
an ancient tradition, that he was banished to Vienne in
Dauphiny, where he was reduced to such extremity that he
killed himself with his own sword two years after.
