Acta Pilati (Pilate's Report to Caesar)

Whitestone, 2025

Acta Pilati has long intrigued scholars and believers alike for its purported firsthand account of Jesus’s trial before the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate. Within the collection called the Archko Volume, this text claims to offer a unique insight into the events surrounding Christ’s final days. According to the story behind its discovery, the Reverend W. D. Mahan of Boonville, Missouri, traveled to Europe in the late nineteenth century, driven by a desire to uncover original sources that shed more light on biblical narratives. His research led him to the Vatican Library, where he gained access to guarded manuscripts that chronicled judicial proceedings from the early Roman Empire. Among these materials was the Acta Pilate, which Mahan copied and ultimately included in the Archko Volume upon his return to the United States. Debate over the authenticity of these writings continues, yet the Acta Pilate remains a fascinating piece of literature for those who seek to understand the cultural and historical perspectives that shaped the Christian story. As we explore this ancient text, consider both the gravity of its claims and the enduring question of how such an extraordinary document survived the centuries to reach us today.
