Subject: Roman guard myth? |
Bible Note: If it was a Roman guard they may not have reported back to Pilot because of the punishment they would face due to their failing to guard the tomb as they were supposed to and so went to the priest to insure their own survival. It is also conceivable that they would report first to the priests because it was priests who received the guards from Pilot. |
