Sažetak
In this article die author seeks to explain two questions: Why Pilate sent Jesus to Herod and why they became friends after Jesus appeared before the tetrarch? The author gives first some general remarks about the Lukan passion narrative which is unique in breaking up the Roman Trial of Jesus before Pilate with the insertion of the trial before Herod. Moreover he concentrates on the text of the unit looking for the motive Pilate may have had for sending Jesus off to Antipas. The tetrarch had gained a high place among the friends of Tiberius and acted as a spy for him upon Roman officers and satelite kings in the East. This probably accounts for the enmity of Pilate. On the other hand Pilate was accused for the massacre which he brought on Galileans visiting Jerusalem. Pilate therefore seized the opportunity of sending the Accused to Herod not because he wanted to rid himself of a difficult case and hoping that he would judge him, as one of his Galilean subjects, but out of self-interest. He wanted by all means the reconciliation with the tetrarch. And indeed his gesture of paying homage to Antipas resulted in settling an enmity of long standing that had existed between them and became friends.
