8. Pontius Pilate 8 hours ago
  • Pilate is one of the few people in the story of the crucifixion of Jesus for whom there is historical evidence
  • In Ethiopian Christianity, Pilate is revered en there is actually a holy day for him
  • The 3 or 4 versions of the judging of Jesus by Pilate vary. In the first version Pilate’s innosence is mentioned, in the next he offers the choice of Jesus and Barabas and washes his hands, in the last he gets into a lengthy philosophical discussion with Jesus.

I just saw a documentary on Pilate on Nat. Geographic. Not very good (a lot of guessings and maybe’s) but it pointed out that, most likely, the scene of Jesus judging by Pilate was written in a way to clear the Romans of blame. A political move, to indicate to Roman authority that they had no conflict, pointing blame to the jews.

If this is the case (which is quite plausible to me) than the impact of some political grovelling added to the prosecution of the Jewish community for centuries. Sad.

10. Sushi 5 days ago

Sushi is a really fast, really easy dish and I don’t know why I didn’t think of this earlier.

Cook the sushi rice a day in advance. The sushi kit further contains a bamboo mat for the sushi rolling, some vinegar to stir through the rice, wasabi, soy sauce and a couple of chopsticks. Add some avocado, cucumber, salmon or whatever else strikes your fancy, roll the hole bunch up and you’re done.
