Abstract: It is the first complete commentary in Italian on the Acta Pilati, the Greek apocryphal of the NT. The boundaries and dating of the text are established, and a complete version with textual criticism, translation, extensive commentary and bibliography is proposed. The editor takes material from the canonical stories of the Passion by mixing sources and texts from different authors. However, there is no shortage of insertions of new characters compared to the synoptic narratives as well as the deletion of some figures including all movements. The reduction of the entire story to just two scenes - the praetorium and the place of the crucifixion - the action of the characters reduced to words, the dialogue always and only between two subjects at a time, the use of the historical present tense etc. they accentuated the theatrical writing which was entrusted with a double function, incarnational and political: it offered updating depth to the story and recovered the positive image of Pilate.
