Legion near Judea at time of Jesus
#40
Because Jesus's time wasn't a prominent thing, as the Catholic church makes it out to be, like a lot of other things that took place in the empire. Think about this realistically. The Catholic church makes the crucifixion of Jesus to be a major affair. When in actuality there probably weren't very many people at Jesus's crucifixion. To the romans he was probably just another trouble maker and upstart. Just another problem that needed to be stamped out. There isn't a whole lot of information on this topic of the military there at this time , because there wasn't nothing major going on. I mean, it's not like the invasion of Britain or the wars in Germania! And everything always refers to Pilates troops, etc. Its hard to find anything identifying the military unit present there. Just a thought, but perhaps all Pilate had there was some auxilia and his own guard. And maybe this centurion belong to one of them? Auxilia or his guard? I say, the province of Judea appears to be not as volatile at this time as other areas of the empire so why would he need any more military than that. Just trying to help.
