He was the Roman procurator of Judea.

You might be thinking of King Herod..the "King of Judea" at the time of the crucifixion.
Ponce Pilate was a roman, one of the most brutal governor of Judea, so brutal that Ceasar recalled him.
King Herod was not a Jew, he was a Greek who was imported in Judea as there was no one left to be or to want to be King.
