Answer:

The statement that states 'Caiaphas wanted to make Jesus a scapegoat' is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Valerius Gratus was a Roman prefect under whose administration the appointment of Joseph Ben Caiaphas was done.
  • His appointment came in line with the relation that he shared with the then Governor.
  • Pontius Pilate wanted the Jesus of Nazareth to be punished for his blasphemy. Caiaphas being the high priest was also the chairman of Sanhedrin.
  • He charged the Jesus of Nazareth of sacrilege and ordered that he be handed over to the 'Roman authorities'.
