Matthew 27 shows the trial of our Lord Jesus and one thing I notice "Pilate" doing is washing his hands before giving his own verdict on Jesus to the people who gave Him up to the Judean Rulers and Romans.
Another passage I found similar in the OT/OC was in Psalms 26:6 concerning "washing hands in innnocense"
Was it a Roman tradition to wash their hands at trials like this? I have a lot more to say on this particular passage but would like to hear views concerning this event. Thanks
Matt 27:24 Being aware yet the Pilate, that nothing it is benefitting but rather a tumult, is becoming getting water he washes the hands in front of the throng saying "innocent I am from the blood of this One, ye shall be seeing to it.
25 And all the people answering said "His blood be upon us and upon our offspring!"
[Matt 23:34/Reve 18:24]
NKJV) Psalms 26:6 I will wash my hands in innocence; So I will go about Your altar, O LORD,
