SHE
KNOWS.

GOSPEL
ACCORDING TO THE
EYEWITNESS
OPEN
The diary of Pontius Pilate's wife. The wife of the Roman Prefect of Judea is usually referred to in fictional treatments (such as Mel Gibson's The
Passion of the Christ) as Claudia Procula or Claudia Procle, a name based solely on preposterous ancient forgeries long discredited by biblical
scholars. Who killed Jesus? Her historically accurate account
is supported by the ancient writers Flavius Josephus and
Philo Judaeus, as well as evidence found among the Dead Sea
Scrolls.
