Is anyone in the Bible real?

No they’re just made up to scare the gay out of children.

@Atamasama

He was a member of the Pontius family, part of the Equestrian order of Rome. (Equivalent to a knight in later centuries I suppose.) He ruled Judea under the military title of Prefect. His Latin name was Pilatus, Greek name Pilatos.

Thanks - I had it backwards.

“Give to Ceasar what is Ceasar’s” comes to mind. I’m pretty sure Ceasar was real.
