'Governor' in the Bible
And [after] tying him up, they led [him] away and handed [him] over to Pilate the governor.
So Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, saying, "Are you the king of the Jews?" And Jesus said, "You say [so]."
And he did not reply to him, not even with reference to one statement, so that the governor was very astonished.
Now at each feast, the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd--the one whom they wanted.
So the governor answered [and] said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barabbas!"
Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the governor's residence [and] gathered the whole cohort to him.
And if this [matter] is heard before the governor, we will satisfy him and {keep you out of trouble}."
