me
Oh
Oh
Oh
listen a sower went out to sow his seed
and as he sowed some fell along the path
and was trodden underfoot in the birds
of the air devoured it another seed fall
on the rock and as it grew up it
withered away because it had no moisture
and some fell into forks and the thorns
grew up with it and choked
and some foul in the good soil and grew
and yielded a hundred-foot
he who has ears to hear let him hear
Oh
Hey
Oh
Oh
yeah
you
this is a story of the time when all
Western civilization was enslaved by the
might of Imperial Rome from the Rhine to
the Nile from the Atlantic to the
deserts beyond the Jordan the nations
vowed in helpless submission to the
legions of the Empire yet in every
vassal state there were men who clung to
the dream of freedom struck back at
their oppressors planned unceasingly to
cast off the yoke of slavery in the Land
of Israel those who dared were known as
the zealots this was Jerusalem in the
18th year of the reign of Tiberius
Caesar

are
so the first bird flies into our trap
trap as I guess a lauded by a measured
spice only when the merchant has been

traitors

border of Sinai some of you have come
even further but our plan tale what plan
walk why if I really have a right and
I'd like to tell my men turn round go
home without an explanation when you
rejoin your men tell them they weren't
summoned for a trivial matter tell them
that if things had gone differently we'd
have broken Rome's hold on Israel
completely one twist of fate and today's
Sun would have dawned on a nation freed
of bondage
united under a new king
the king of our own choosing
we came so close to success
so very good
it all began three years ago in the
valley of the Jordan I had gone there
has had many others to hear a certain
man a man called John the Baptist your
sins and hid his face from you so that
he does not hear turn back to the Largey
over you who have strayed give witness
to him repent your sins for the day of
his coming is near and woe unto those
who are not prepared
he's a book of doom we black overthrow
the powers of Rome like those assembly
miss before his judgment but he has a
gift we can use a leadership he's a free
man
hasn't the main subject da King gay even
Herod Antipas who we call Tetrarch
revels in sin and debauchery Francie's
false marriage with the woman he took
from his brother he may have leadership
but a certain lacks judgment boy a fool
shout accusations against hair it's a
public arena sphere as he needs an
advisor they still return unable to beat
him tied up in regret one time
controller
you have the shrewdness he has the spark
that King Guzman open their hearts to
repentance
grant them Redemption from thy wrath
grant them
the gift of thy forgiveness
now who aren't all-powerful all-knowing
Almighty
come come step forward in the name of
the lord my god
come
on the rock where
no joke
Harrison get the wrath of the Lord
Jehovah are you hurt
Oh shall I have a very hard head I'm a
stout heart deeply grateful to you and
your friend I don't even know your name
he is a doctor spice merchant of
Jerusalem diam and revoir Jonah's
fisherman from Galilee and you my name
is Judas Judas Iscariot with no hope of
using the Baptist to our advantage
I sent Judas westward on mana matters
concerning the Brotherhood and I
traveled south to Jerusalem you Andrew
you returned to Galilee yes back to my
brother and our fishing boat and this
became weeks and weeks a month
then one day while we were hanging our
nets by the Sea of Galilee
you
the day Andrew hello you know my name I
saw you brother Jordan you're the
Nazarene
Simon James John come here
well this is Jesus Bart Joseph the man
from Nazareth oh my brother simon
barjona s' sermon and our friends James
and John bars evident
you know the carpenter
no more no longer will I labor with wood
now my workers with mankind this new
task you've undertaken this work with
men I bring them hope new hope but the
kingdom of God is close at hand his
forgiveness ready for all who repent and
truly believe just the Baptist predicted
if there's anything I can do that we can
do to help you nothing where teachers or
preachers were just fishermen
follow me
I will make you fishers of men
from that day on we followed him not
asking why we did knowing only that we
wanted to more than any other thing
we aren't him preach in our own
synagogue in Capernaum reading the Torah
as expertly as a scribe interpreting the
laws so clearly that all men marveled at
his knowledge authority we followed him
along the roads of Galilee to the
villages towns and cities
learn that the gift Healing lay in his
hands
the gentleness and compassion for all
men build his heart
wherever he spoke the people listened
many followed him from village to
village
among them the man Judas never entering
into the discussions but always studying
a master intently as a masters Fame
increased so did his followers
in certain Pharisees who considered
themselves authorities on a religious
law presented him bitterly why did you
let them break the traditions of the
elders would you destroy all it is holy
all it is sacred
well that Isaiah prophesy of you
hypocrites as it is written this people
honors me with their lips but their
heart is far from me in vain do they
worship Me teaching as doctrines the
precepts of men
gimme
hear me all of you would understand
there is nothing outside a man which by
going into him can defile but the things
that come out of a man are what defile
him
you
Oh
Oh
you
a message
to say dr. Adnan virtutis spices
with humble respect
it is possible our search for a leader
of the downtrodden
is ended
business yes master I promise to take
you along on my next visit to the
leaders of the northern bands next month
you said it'll be sooner than that much
sooner it's urgent that I inspect a
certain Galilean who may be useful so
you can quit posing as a gardener and
start acting as a spice merchant servant
good anything is better than garden
Simon in the name of the Brotherhood
welcome is one friend to another
What's Wrong Simon my dagger carrying
days are over your friends waiting on
the roof you'll sleep cooler up there
wait when you took the zealot oath you
took it for life I swore to love my
country to work for her freedom I still
will in the way I think best and that is
each night I pray that Judea may be
freed pray a hundred years of prayers
haven't loosened our chains there's
seven centuries of hate and plots and
bloodshed perhaps our hope lies in
forgiveness and not in revenge you sound
like a follower of the Nazarene because
I've become one
Oh some rumors about and reached
Jerusalem but you know city dwellers
anything that happens outside the wall
can't possibly be important but the
farther north we came the more we heard
about him the wildest tales of Curie's
of healings
driving out of demons half of Galilee is
convinced he can do incredible things he
can i witnessed several witnessed the
wonder your message said he draws men
like a lodestone the humble the weak the
all but hopeless they talk on our
searches ending the Nazarene is
everything we need for a figurehead if a
man who preaches love your enemy can be
persuaded to join the Brotherhood give
me time to gain his confidence and I'll
have him thinking that revolt against
Caesar is his own idea why has no more
sense of intrigue than a child have you
heard of the aides he's chosen for
fishermen untold exactly for Calais
handed scholars in the art of gutting
fish now what a man with a slightest
knowledge of politics surround himself
with a retinue like that when I first
heard of it they added a new one a tax
collector he dines with him tonight at
the home of Matthew been helped by the
Levi's the ex carpenter with his ex
fishermen something with an ex publican
and half of the other tax collectors of
Capernaum tell me we're not people were
conquered before in centuries past what
kept them together by their loyalty
pride and their faith in God and who led
them to freedom the Lord the great
leaders he sent
today they have neither they look to the
throne for Hezekiah Solomon they find
Herod Antipas we clean libertine pocket
they turned to the temple and say
another Roman porn kfs high priest
by order of seasoned high priest high
traitor to Israel making a mockery of
his robes to enrich his press know other
people have despaired of help from the
temple all the throne leaving only their
faith in the Lord
faith but little hope of ever being part
of his kingdom
not with chaos demanding temple Taksin
that only a few can pay another Nazarene
appears offering redemption to all who
repent salvation to all simply believe
Rome recruits her armies by offering
mere earthly loot how much more this
carpenter of and they believe him and
believe what they want to believe
actually there's only one thing that
might make the people hesitate to follow
him one thing
the humility born of a hundred years of
slavery the humbleness that might make
them say the kingdom is for others not
for me I'm too lowly I'm unworthy but
the Nazarene whose cleverness you derive
proves that all men are worthy by the
example of his chosen companions for
fishermen and the publican
it's possible I underestimated him it's
also conceivable that you might have
read too deep a meanie into a
thoughtless act perhaps perhaps in
either case you agree you can still be
useful if he can be guided and control
he can t he will be
it must have been about that time when
we cross to the far side of Galilee
wrong followed him on foot along the
northern shore in the early morning the
master went up the mountain to pray
I waited farther down the Mount with the
others
and when his prayers were ended he came
to us and from among us he chose 12
James Barr's epi' T and his brother John
my brother Simon called Peter and myself
Matthew the publican young Philip
Bartholomew
Thomas the doubter James son of Alphaeus
that is the man Simon who had been a
zealot and Judas of Kiriath
Judas
and you I have chosen not alone that you
may be with me
but that you may go forth and preach of
the kingdom of heaven
you will be given authority over the
spirits of evil the power to cure
disease and heal all manner of sickness
you are the light of the world
blessed are the poor in spirit
what theirs is the kingdom of heaven
blessed are those who mourn
but they shall be comforted
blessed are the meek
but they shall inherit the earth
blessed are the merciful
or they shall obtain mercy
blessed are the pure in heart
what they shall see God blessed are the
peacemakers
what they shall be called sons of God
blessed are you when men revile you and
persecute you and utter all kinds of
evil against you falsely
on my account
rejoice and be glad
or your reward is great in heaven
or so man persecuted the prophets who
were before you
master this gentleman Simon a thousand
breathing your kindness overwhelms me
what good fortune brings you to
Jerusalem
I came with Jesus of Nazareth he's here
in the city since last week just you and
the Nazarene and the other followers
there are 12 of us every day we're here
Jesus speaks in the temple court I I
wish that you would go to him listen to
him I yes why's that I could tell the
Brotherhood how to free Israel by
learning to love our conquerors it's
written that whoever sheds the blood of
man by man shall his blood be I know the
scriptures I know also that of all Judea
followed your rabbis preachment of peace
our future would be doomed or saved
Simon you've chosen your way I am
dedicated to mine even though we travel
different paths the road that leads to
the top of me bow first times the
foothills heel so high that men mistake
them for the pinnacle itself you ascend
the hill toward a goal of earthly
political freedom for our people it
hides the greater gold beyond the
spiritual salvation of all mankind
taught which he strives
you may find we travel the same Road
Simon
why are you so sure of him do you think
he's the Messiah come to earth a year
ago he was a village carpenter yet he
has such knowledge power beyond any
earthly explanation that all men who
hear him trust and believe him all men
all men who really know him he's at the
temple now will you go there with me
not today
yes master
Rooney I have an errand boy are you
angry with me because on the Sabbath 5k
demands all the spice merchants candles
Greenland's file
tell him I'll visit him soon as I can
right judge he's waiting for you now
hear o Israel the Lord our God the more
thank you
here my friend welcome my home is your
hospitality honors me the boy said you
wanted me at once something wrong the
very question I was about to ask you
I heard you arrived in Bethany a week
ago I expected you to seek me out at
once or I plan to come tonight it isn't
too easy to slip away from the others
without arousing their suspicions do
they suspect you on the contrary they're
just selecting the guardian of our purse
keeper the funds excellent and the
Nazarene what progress have you made
with him he chose me one of the twelve
yes you wrote me about that some months
ago have you won him over to our cause
persuaded him to take the zealot old I
haven't so much as tried hmm no speaking
too soon might have ruined everything
that's the only reason what other could
they do I've heard incredible things
about him that he has supernatural gifts
that he can persuade all men to his way
of thinking and you thought that that I
possibility occurred to me how do you
explain his abilities by his own words
but all powers and wonders come from God
can we explain the Sun for the stars for
the miracle of a sea becoming a flower
no we accept so I accept the abilities
of Jesus bar Joseph and if the credulous
choose to think him touched by divinity
and I suppose when the time comes and
when it does we'll make some things off
we'll have the Brotherhood spread the
word that he's divine that he's a
messiah a messiah
why not once a revolt its excite forbid
it he will be useful to us as a mortal
leader only if he can be won over to our
cause he will be when I have been wasted
my time first I had to win his
confidence now I begin to offer casual
suggestions on an important
later I advise our more vital Affairs by
the time we actually need you're sure
you can succeed all I need is enough
time I met with the High Council of the
Brotherhood two nights ago they sent
orders to every zealot leader to lie low
no raise no forest until Tiberius
believes all Israel is subdued then if
revolt strikes at Gore gothic I'm
arrived
it rose troops from these Garrison's
here and I need a leader who teaches
love and peace can increase his falling
without suspicions
if anyone first let him come to me and
drink he who believes in me as the
scripture has said out of his heart
shall flow rivers of living water
if you continue in my word you are my
disciple
and you will know the truth and the
truth will make you free this is really
the product you might even be the Christ
the Christ to come from Galilee it is
written that the Christ will be
descended from David David comes from
Bethlehem all you are is taxes and
height
he offers eternal life you don't care we
stop you Roman yes Lord honest
arrest this troublemaker take him to
care for us
yes follow
mutro said rabbi from Nazareth tried to
stir up the crowd again one who's caused
so much trouble in Galilee there's
always traveling Galilee but now he's
starting it here you can end it
Laura clip where's your prisoner we
couldn't arrest him
Courtney arrest him but no man has ever
spoken like this man so now he's like
Jew astray also go go
well at least the Nazarene is gone and
more importance than ever thanks to you
important panelists wandering teacher
wherever he wanders the people listen we
follow people yes the people the ones we
must control as Rome wants them
controlled or be destroyed ourselves if
you are so fearful of the Nazarene send
out a stronger God have him dragged back
lashed locked in a dungeon no he must be
silenced more cleverly than that and in
his own Galilee if he returns there who
do we know in Capernaum that we can
trust
tell me rabbi this heaven you praise
will it be the same for all of us truly
I say to you unless you turn in become
like children you will never enter the
kingdom of heaven
whoever humbles himself like this child
he is the greatest in the kingdom of
heaven whoever receives one such child
in my name receives me
and whoever causes one of these little
on the way never mind another room never
fire Thanks
keep going I'll be late
woman of macula now the Galileans
audience is complete they all open the
way mistress ever read in the scriptures
temptations to sin are sure to come but
woe to him by whom they come and yet I
tell you if a man has a hundred sheep
and one of them has gone astray does he
not leave the ninety and nine on the
hills and go in search of the one that
went astray and if he finds truly he
rejoices more over it at over the ninety
and nine that never went astray
hi rabbi I've been listening to you with
interest great interest I want to seek
your advice privately if you and your
friends here with honor me by dining
tonight if you can that will do that
will do
you were in the market square this
morning yes mistress so that's how you
waste your time gaping and handsome
young artists that one seemed quite a
Spellbinder who is he Jesus by Joseph of
Nazareth oh yes I've heard tales about
him what is he a teacher a physician a
mystic or a madman who thinks himself a
prophet not a madman mistress some call
him rabbi others term him master I've
heard it whispered that he he might be
the Messiah but he speaks of himself as
the son of man like anyone else and you
learned all of that from listening to
him once I've heard him several times he
seemed to have some great appeal for
silly girls and stupid old women what
can it be he
he brings us hope
hope that if we truly repent our sins
and have faith
we may be part of God's kingdom
easy promise to me he means it
and he knows if you could look into his
eyes everyone someone to him not just a
another face in a crowd and he has such
kindness such understanding such
sympathy for us all for everyone
oh yes mistress for the rich and the
poor for the powerful in the weak for
the good
and the name you almost said the wicked
didn't you
where everyone is just such a good girl
art dutiful devout innocent high as they
slave in your life away to support your
crippled lover well I could have been a
mealy-mouthed sit by the fire too but I
chose to live my life and enjoy it how
many of these is your purity bought for
you
hi Eddie have a sweeter $0.17 anointment
heavenly crowd had movies and sapphires
to compare with these here put them on
feel their press against your throat
learn what your sniffling psyche has
made you for bit and then tell me you're
wiser is smarter than I am over Lois I'm
I'm sorry
here take them keep them they're yours
you must i order you to you don't have
to keep them sell them if you what i
won't mind use the money to hire the
egyptian physician to cure your mother
my mother's no longer crippled not since
the day a Nazarene
touched her with his hand
you may go
now I can agree with all that you say
about love your enemies as well as your
neighbors our only form
what do you mean love or our enemies
evil Roman tyrants who have enslaved us
if all men love their fellow man there
would be no tyrants and no slaves Oh
Putin not but until that day come what
it does there'll be no problem about
loving Romans they're all be dead
take the procurator's that rooms and to
rule us Capponi as he wasn't too bad nor
markers but honestly now can you say one
good word about Pontius Pilate the sword
rattling course soldier promoted
ah
who are you do you want
how dare you come here get out well
a woman of Magdala and another in stock
market or he wouldn't let her touch him
Simon I have something to say to you
what is it rabbi a certain creditor had
two daggers one owed him 500 in area the
other 15
when they could not pay him he forgave
them both now which of them will love
him more the one I supposed to whom he
forgave more you have judged rightly
do you see this woman I entered your
house
you gave me no water for my feet but she
has wet my feet with her tears and wiped
them with her hair you did not anoint my
head with oil but she has anointed my
feet with ointment
therefore her sins which are many are
forgiven
what she loved much
but he who is forgiven little loves left
last
your sins are forgiven your faith has
saved you
good piece
from that day on Mary of Magdala became
one of us for the master letters she
followed devoted tireless eager
disturbed and the summer turned to fall
we journey southward to Jerusalem we
remained welcome at home in Bethany the
kingdom of heaven is like treasure
hidden in a field which a man found and
covered up then in his joy then he goes
and sells all that he has and buys that
feat but how are we to find that King
how Lazarus
a scan it will be given you seek and you
will find
knock and it will be open to you
or everyone who asks receives and he who
seeks finds and to him who knocks it
will be opened Mary
all things are possible to God if you
truly believe Mary oh your pardon master
but there's so much to be done more than
I can see to alone
the Rhine to be poured and the meat to
be cut and the servants are all master
don't you care if my sister has left me
to serve alone Martha Martha you're
anxious and troubled about many things
only one thing is needful mary has
chosen the good portion which shall not
be taken from master you say ask and
will receive how shall we ask will you
teach us to pray as John taught his
disciples
when you pray say our Father who art in
heaven
hallowed be thy name
by kingdom come
I will be done
on earth as it is in heaven
give us this day
our daily bread
and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us
and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
I'll bet
Oh
but that stay was short the time of the
Passover was drawing near and a master
plan to join the throngs they traveled
to the temple in Jerusalem I passed
through Capernaum before you left I was
headed north you were all instructed to
cease harassing the Romans but one man
brought himself more important than the
Brotherhood
Barabbas camp from the hills had changed
since I saw it last what once had been a
refuge for the persecuted had now become
a layer of bandits his men had captured
a Roman supply Caravan the loot included
a half dozen skins of strong wine
in of Israel Patriots pledged to free
Judea turn to brigands and swine under
your leadership perhaps they'll be fit
again tomorrow as soon as their heads
clear in the Qatar but um have their fun
they fought who bled and killed enough
Roman not some freedom a gold and jewels
stolen tents some portion masters a dock
master spice merchant a toast a salute
to the Brotherhood
judge sweat
didn't mean to spill no I just one to
drink with an old friend you were
ordered to avoid conflict with the
Romans I built a following by giving
orders not taking them men have come
from all of Palestine to join me because
they know the named Barabbas means
courage and not appeasement appeasement
you were told to lie low as part of a
plan to take the Romans off guard
when when everything was ready not until
then not until then that's what they
told my father in his youth and his
father before him it's easy to sit in
your fine house in Jerusalem and cry
wait wait but when you've seen your
village burned as I've done seen your
wife and children cut down by Roman
swords the decision of the High Council
is a command suppose I choose to ignore
the command of the timid Greybeards
suppose I decide to attack the Roman
outpost tomorrow and then sweep
southward gathering an army as I go I
forbid it
you and your men have regained your
senses return to your homes
those are your orders I command of the
council
prepare the donkeys were starting back
it's our guide our guests back to the
caravan road
I don't be mad at Mesmer Zadok he's a
good man there's a beautiful garden
I was just gardener once when I was
hiding from
can this be the famous Barabbas a great
leader who so graciously accepted my
gift what gift
the last loot you'll ever steal six
skins of drugged wine
you take my advice you'll stay away from
Jerusalem the BRABUS is executed and
forgotten we don't want your counsel
just your hell up with what three
Barabbas with all the two of them oh it
may be possible you know the
procurator's customer freeing a prisoner
on feast days yes but hardly Barrabas it
may be Barabbas up for people demand it
I've sent messengers to assemble the
Brotherhood but some might not get there
in time we'll have to fill the courtyard
round the judgment-seat
and that'll be your job mine yours with
the army of pilgrims who follow your
Galilean you can't convince him to add
their voices to ours can't you I doubt
it but you will try his powers aren't an
army they're just people who want to be
here well they would obey Him wouldn't
they at all and if you wanted to
persuade him is Jeb I not go give the
boy his supper he hasn't eaten yet
surely brute arts wrong Judas nothing
you can't persuade him to help her now
can't you and then any matter worth the
effort
two years ago you thought he'd be easy
to control a year ago you wanted to use
him as a false messiah
now you hesitate to so much as ask a
favor of him why you admit the BRABUS
flats orders and jeers at Authority now
he's a worth the free even we could be
done he is
thanks to Roman stupidity they paraded
him the length of Palestine made a
captive hero of a symbol to the people
for the man I spent weary hours to
cultivate does it become secondary to a
cutthroat bandit from the hills never
mind we'll have need of him the urgent
task now is to free Barabbas and your
duty is to help I'll do what I can
the time will come toward the end of the
Passover week Thursday perhaps Friday
get in touch with me as soon as you
reach Jerusalem I will good fortune
there's a man I'd never count on and
you'd be wrong men take those evidence
for the score of reasons adventure
revenge and ideal the hope of gain but
Judas is bound closest of all he's
possessed by a demon demon the devil of
ambition the lust of power and authority
he wants to be a leader he'd sell his
soul for it but he knows he hasn't the
spark now his aim is to be the power
behind the throne
Judis what have you been why just
outside the village to visit a friend
why the master and the others have gone
I waited to tell you
gone where to Bethany come on if we
hurry we can overtake the messenger came
from Mary and Martha Lazarus is ill Mary
it was good of you to come master but we
could not get word to you in time my
brother
the day the messenger left Oh Lord if
you had been here my brother would not
have done
your brother will rise again I know in
the resurrection at the last day
I am the resurrection and the life
he who believes in me though he die yet
shall he live
and whoever lives and believes in Me
shall never die
do you believe this yes Lord
my love is my thought if you had been
here my brother would not have died
where have you landed
take away the stove Lord he's been dead
for four days did I not tell you that if
you would believe you would see the
glory of God
father I think be the balusters Denis
I know that thou hearest me always but I
have said this on account of the people
standing by but they may believe that
valid Sidney
Lazarus
come for
Oh
passers
on my name and let him go
it's incredible incredible but it
happened
I saw authority over death itself no
mortal ever had such power what until
now could he be more than mortal not
long ago he asked the twelve of us who
people thought him to thee Andrews said
they compared him to John factus young
Phillips had arisen prophet Elijah
Jeremiah and then he asked our school we
saw him to be Peter was the only one
that answer he said you are the Christ
the Son of the Living God the Son of God
well they were Peters words not mine
I've lived traveled eaten and slept with
Jesus by Joseph for more than two years
and I've studied him more closely than
any man he's learning but his human
mortal flesh and blood just like you and
me and briar scratches it legs he he
bleeds the day is hot he thirsts he
hungers he sweats he tires he laughs he
cries what God or the Son of God has
such weaknesses her suppose not knew no
I would not know Zadok we haven't
discovered the Messiah but we have on
wasn't we saw tonight his name is on
every tongue in Bethany and by tomorrow
sweet Jerusalem a city filled by the
devout and just longing for a leader
they can honor and respect for a David
for a Solomon for our new King of the
Jews
a new penis came with all Israel United
behind him king by demand of all Judea
for the people already there like tinder
waiting for the flame we have enough of
the Brotherhood to supply the spark
you're King of the Jews to be done
would it be willing to take the risk you
will be you're certain
I'm sorry
you
leader where you going with that taking
him to the master he sent us together
he's going to carry the master into the
city aren't you long here's master cat
right through the streets and a thing
like this draw the rosies Trust on foot

steady there boys steady ears up forward
march

the temple one that isn't that a
prophecy about this sort of these
something about a king coming hungry yes
yes there is the scroll of Zachariah
rejoice Jerusalem like King cometh he is
just and having salvation lowly and
riding upon an ass he remembered he
planted all along
strange he didn't remind you if all must
have thought of it after I left I better
join the other gurus but the hour is
come on you're hiding something it's
nothing nothing womanizer in you refuse
the terms you were offered i offered no
turns I told him nothing he might have
refused and now I can't not when the
crowds heal him is king not when they
demand he take the throne no man to
refuse then no man Judas Judas free
Barabbas and your duty is to help
I'll do what I can the time will come
till the end of the Passover week
Thursday perhaps Friday get in touch
with me as soon as you reach Jerusalem I
will good fortune there's a man I'd
never count on and you'd be wrong
then take those elbows for the score of
reasons adventure revenge and ideal the
hope of the game but Judas has bound
closest of all he's possessed by a demon
demon the devil of ambition the lust of
power and authority he wants to be a
leader he'd sell his soul for it but he
knows he hasn't the spark now his aim is
to be the power behind the throne
Judis where have you been why just
outside the village to visit a friend
why the master and the others have gone
I waited to tell you God where telephony
come on if we hurry we can overtake the
messenger came from Mary and Martha
Lazarus is ill Barry
it was good of you to come master but we
could not get word to you in time my
brother
you do the messenger left Oh Lord if you
had been here
my brother would not have done your
brother will rise again I know in the
resurrection at the last day
I am the resurrection and the life
he who believes in me though he die yet
shall he live
and whoever lives and believes in Me
shall never die
do you believe this yes Lord
I love it my lord if you had been here
my brother would not have died where

you would believe you would see the
glory of God

I know that thou hearest me always but I
have said this on account of the people
standing by and they may believe that
thou did Sidney
laughter us
come for
icers
I'd buy them and let it go
it's incredible incredible but it
happened
I saw authority over death itself
no more clever had such power but until
now could he be more than mortal not
long ago he asked for 12 of us who
people come to thee Andrew said they
compared him to John the Baptist young
Philip said arisen prophet Elijah
Jeremiah and then he asked us who we saw
him to be Peter was the only one to
answer he said you are the Christ the
Son of the Living God the Son of God
well they were Peters words not mine
I've lived traveled eaten and slept with
Jesus bar Joseph for more than two years
now studied him more closely than any
man he's learned but his human mortal
flesh and blood just like uni and Brier
scratches a leg see he bleeds the day is
hot he thirsts he hungers he sweats he
tires he laughs he cries what God where
the Son of God has such weaknesses I
suppose not you know I would not know
zaiah we haven't discovered the Messiah
but we have fun with him we saw tonight
his name is on every tongue and Bethany
and by tomorrow sweet Jerusalem a city
filled by the devout and just longing
for a leader that can honor and respect
for a David for a Salah for our new King
of the Jews
a new king desk came with all israel
united behind him king by demand of all
judea now the people are ready for like
tinder waiting for the flame we have
enough of the Brotherhood dis apply the
spark

would it be willing to take a risk you
will be you're certain
I'm sorry
either where you going with that taking
him to the master he sent us to get him
he's gonna carry the master into the
city aren't you long here's master cat
ride through the streets and a thing
like this after all the roads he's Trust
on foot why not steady there boys
steady ears up forward march we've got
to stop you can't ride to the temple one
that isn't that a prophecy about this
sort of beast something about a king
coming hungry yes yes there is the
scroll of Zachariah rejoice Jerusalem by
King cometh he is just and having
salvation lowly and riding upon an ass
he remembered he planned it all along
strange he didn't remind you of it all
must have thought of it after I left I
better join the other hooters 50 hours
Commodore hiding something it's nothing
nothing woman Ezzor in you refuse the
terms you were offered
I offered no terms I told him nothing he
might have refused and now I can't not
when the crowds hail him as king not
when they demand you take the throne
no mad to refuse then no man Judas Judas
what's funny
if Jesus of Nazareth King out no it's a
joke
we're going to tell you
in the - hi
there he is which Jesus is neither King
of the Jews
they're coming nearer it's going louder
what is it they're yelling King of the
Jews
hail to the king of the Jew I warned you
I warned you
my men await your orders
yours no more no orders of it yet
you're located
Oh
yeah
well then he just looked at the temple
with tears in his eyes tears yes milord
and that
lemme went away
is his plan
but is his plan
one gesture one cry of follow me and
Jerusalem would have been his top lane
the Nazarene those are false powers I
did my part so to the others but a
handful we needed a hundred men we
needed a leader not some weeping milksop
but he is only enough we tried and we
fair let's not compound the failure by
arguing among ourselves sorry it's just
I can't help thinking what a day of
tribe this could have been had a long
walk to bed me least we made some
progress we started the people thinking
of them as their king you start
preparing plans to rally the men again
after the others arrived and I'll began
up again tomorrow on the -
rally them again was he out of his mind
what
I
it is written my house shall be called a
house of prayer but you have made it a
den of robbers Lizzy the guards where
the guns no an ort but you could have in
jail for such a jail he must be ignored
or destroyed completely and only pilot
can sentence Amanda death
we could trick them into making a
treasonous state neared west try what in
colonial you think that true der man
might I would suggest if you retain a
teacher we know that you speak and teach
rightly and show no partiality and truly
teach the way of God but tell us is it
lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not
if he says don't give those sword
swingers will arrest him for treason he
says give he'll have the whole crowd
against him come teacher what's your
answer
and that question
show me your calling
whose likeness and inscription are on it
why Cetus
then render to Caesar the things that
are Caesar's and to God the things that
are gods
greetings have you heard what happened
today ah the Nazarene make fools of
canvases pet toady's in the argument
about the corn yes well he really seems
their bids the story is being told all
over the city yesterday he proved his
courage by driving out the courtyard
parasite single-handed now the masses
although he is brilliant as well
couldn't get here to help with the
preparation still not how are they
coming some of the men have arrived but
not enough to fill the courtyard the
courtyard
oh no I didn't mean that I meant to
arouse the people again Judas in a way
it might be best to wait for as many of
the Brotherhood as we can on the other
hand we mustn't lose the people's
excitement perhaps the last of the feast
days would be right or do you think it
should be done sooner not for a year at
the earliest a year be tuned
maybe never but that's ridiculous insane
you heard how they cheered him they
followed the very gate of the temple and
I saw him weep and turn away
well they remember that you did this you
insisted upon me Barabbas the head of a
master I didn't but I would have Judas
now you listen to me all of you you're
throwing away a kingdom we can't stir
them up again or more easily than before
no risk no risk at all well a blind man
can see the care of his fears a Nazarene
he doesn't dare order his arrest if k of
us were fool enough to arrest him we
could rouse the people then it'd have a
cause to fight for a hero to free his
enemies to destroy now they have neither
and K if it's a shrewd enough to know
that dangerous past a wise man faces
facts only a fool denies them and only
the cowardly stop one step short of
victory alright give up hope
all of you but I won't not now
if games were fool enough to arrest him
we could rouse the people and it'd have
a cause to fight for a hero to free his
enemies to destroy now them neither gave
us a shrewd enough to know the dangerous
past a wise man faces facts only a four
denies them and only the Carly stop one
step short of victory
the first day when crowds Hilding King
his courage failed he was afraid that
you and the procurator laid a trap and
now now a maneuvers tool of your fears
when he's certain you're off guard
you'll order his followers to strike at
the temple that you do well as elet's
assassinate Herod then as high priest
and King he'll be in a position to
bargain with Pilate if you've been as
close to him as you say why are you
betraying him I trusted him I thought it
was Messiah now I see him for what he is
will you repeat all this to the
procurator no why not if it's the truth
because you'll seize Jesus Pilate would
put slaughter him and his followers to
the last man I'll guarantee your safety
mine but not there's other good men just
fooled by him as I was he alone is your
threat arresting imprisoning the threat
is ended
we have no charge against him without
your testimony and if a zealot friends
learned that I betrayed him No
no will alter the terms I named full
secrecy enough money to see me to Egypt
no one need know if we take you to pipe
pilot blue I trust no rooms man doesn't
sell his life for a handful of soup No
not his own
yeah
nobody
truly truly I say to you a servant is
not greater than his master oh is he who
is sent greater than he who sent him
if you know these things blessed are you
if you do them
I am NOT speaking of you all I know whom
I have chosen
is that the scripture may be fulfilled
he wait my bread has lifted his heel
against me
I tell you this now before it takes
place so that when it does take place
you may believe that I need
truly truly I say to you one of you will
betray me
masters laugh boy who is it
I mastered it is he - who much will give
this morsel when I did
you
vacuum I'm going to do do quickly
Judas where you going the master now is
the son of man glorified and in him God
is close
ah
little children yet a little while am i
with you you will seek me

love one another

let's not now Lord God king of the world
who has brought forth bread from here
Hey

prevent mistakes and double betrayals
until your officer the upper chamber
they in or if they've left in the garden
garden the one call Gethsemane
it's the Nazarenes custom to pray out of
doors after his evening meal now what
you go with them to identify the Nazeri

make certain there are no
misunderstandings

people to cry out that the king of the
Jews is held prisoner at Alice's home
Anna's home yes Anna's oh that's no
threat they could do nothing there but

everything they call him guilt of what
blasphemy

death and I denied going I denied
knowing him
what's so important about it my god wait
till it is not something about tomorrow
being their Sabbath excellency so if it
can be done today Sabbath holy days
feast days they waste more time on one
God than we do on a thousand his
excellency Pontius Pilate procurator of
Judea this is the prisoner yes
excellency
where's the delegation waiting outside
excellency bring it in they big the
directions to come out to them something
about entering a Gentiles dwelling
during their Passover they rouse me at
dawn and expect me to come to them
report Rickson our apologies what are
you discussing see this man who brought
what is he accused why he claims to be
the Son of God he's a false messiah he
even claims to be the Christ yes he
calls himself a head without an evildoer
we would not have handed him over Rome
has no interest in your Christ's or
messiahs
take him to yourself judging by your law
but it is not lawful for us to sentence
a man to death if your excellency will
merely endorse this rid of our judgment
wait here
what is slays if I say this is the man
who caused that clamor four or five days
ago yes excellency
but nothing Carolyn something did not
for care this to want him executed or to
want me to execute him
are you the King of the Jews do you say
this of your own accord or did others
say it to you about me Amaya drew their
own chief priests handed you over to me
what have you done My Kingdom is not of
this world if my kingdom were of this
world My servants would fight so you are
a king you say I am the king for this I
was born and for this I came into the
world to bear witness to the truth truth
everyone who is of the truth hears my
voice what is truth
I have questioned the prisoner I find no
guilt in the man but he stirs up the
people he preaches sedition Revolution
is spoken against all throughout all
Judea from Galilee to this very city
from Galilee see a Galilean yes known as
Jesus of Nazareth and he comes under
Herod's jurisdiction not mine head on
excellent gene and Terry yes excellency
take the prisoner to the temple any move
of care versus maybe a chap I love them
detest it he knows it hates me plots
night and day to discredit me with wrong
he knows time to resorted me to keep the
peace at any cost yet he asked me to
execute a man whose followers may revolt
why didn't you release the man so campus
could send what a decision that I'd
freed the man who had set himself up as
king in defiance of Rome oh I see
housing the problem under Herod with a
clever move a statesman smoove divided a
free hand in order to keep the peace I'd
order the Galilee and beheaded all his
followers with him then I turned the
courts loose on the temple
I'm Caiaphas when all the fat cats is
around him well did Herod find the man
guilty no excellency the prisoner
refused to answer the tetrarch's
questions so Herod mocked him draped him
in a torn purple robe and sent him back
back but he's a Galilean so I told him
excellency but Herod claims the crimes
were committed in Judea in your
jurisdiction so headed plots against me
to please my lord it may be the carrot
fears the same thing to you
Tom's more more good news
only the campuses join the delegation
awaiting your Excellencies decision
I are excellency we are honored by your
presence no doubt you brought me the man
as one one sights the people I examined
it I do not find him guilty of your
charges but relax indeed no and neither
did had it nothing deserving death has
been done by him I will for order him to
be chastised and released no silence in
the name of Caesar Benitez get out my
order to the temple bring back every man
you can hurry
I already black nothing more
whose idea was this well it was a sort
of jest your excellency they're calling
him King of the Jews so one of the men
made him a crown remove it No
well wait
this is track excellency
this is a trap I'll make careful step
into it for me of all the prisoners in
the cells which one is the vilest
Barrabas robbers bandit cutthroat murder
bring him here
bring him here
having folks let me the master say up
here Paramus they've taken it from this
cell to the Praetorian come on the men
there's more time you must go yourselves
on your way out
the robber
yes excellency
therefore says you claim to be the Son
of God
where are you from
you won't speak to me don't you know I
have the power to release you or crucify
them
you would have no power over me unless
it had been given you from above
therefore he who delivered me to you has
the greater sin
now I'm in careful step into his own
trap before witnesses
they all I bring it out to you that you
may know I find no crime in him right
they own the man
I got here we brought the man the fear
we could
if you release this man you are not
Caesars friend everyone who makes
himself King sets himself against Caesar
it is the custom every Passover for one
prisoner to be released
shall I pre this one whom you hailed is
your king or this rather murderer known
as Barabbas Barabbas free Bharata
what should I do with Jesus who is
called Christ crucified
what evil has he done
I am innocent of this man's blood
see to it yourselves
release Barabbas
it is better far better but one man
should die and the Peace of Israel be
maintained
I have said that betraying innocent
blood see to it yourself
you
if you can perform miracles do one he
claims he can save others let's see if
he can save himself
save yourself now if you go
other forgive
well they know not what they do least
you breath forgiving them truth Christ
save yourself save us don't you fear God
you and I were dust ly condemned we are
receiving the dew rewards for our deeds
but
this man has done nothing wrong Jesus
remember me when you come in to your
kingdom
Fuli i stated
today with me in paradise
as Judas been found
what is the sign say
since Jesus of Nazareth King of Lagoon
no pilot had it put there as a JIRA cams
you never know how close to the truth
that just came out loud here go back
this is a Nazarenes mother
hope
behold
bye son
my father
my god
my god
by this alpha city
I thirst
you
but into thy hands I commit my spirit
it is finished
and so he died and proved himself a
mortal man not a divine messenger not
the Messiah that but some people thought
he might have been and for these two
days since his death
pilots cohorts have combed the city
seeking the leaders of a revolt that
never took place and a Roman guard
stands watch over a sealed tomb that
contains the body of the man who might
have been our King the guard has been
removed Nazarenes body was stolen when
the woman went to the tomb this morning
for the ritual anointment the stone was
rolled aside the body gone they came
back to tellus trying to convince
themselves that he had risen like
Lazarus talking about some vision they
saw or thought they saw my brother went
to the tomb there was nothing there but
the grave cloths that's the story now
you know why you were summoned why we
failed I understand I must be getting
back to my companions and I to my men my
thanks for your help my friend and mine
for the shelter you go towards the
Damascus Gate in that direction some of
us will go with you
this is where I must leave you may we
meet again someday under better
circumstances for all of us I'm sorry I
didn't know the Nazarene as you did he
was a brilliant man and a brave one we
may never find another to regrow I am
some of the others believed he was the
Messiah once I thought so too
what if he had been the Messiah he
wasn't he died was suppose he had been
what then then Simon would have been
right when he said we both travelled the
same road you and I to the foothills and
he to the great of pinic or beyond
there well my friend may the Lord watch
between me and thee while we are absent
one from the other
Oh
I sent Thomas to find you where have you
been hiding from the Romans it's all
right now
have you decided what we will do not yet
we'll talk about that later I'm safe
we'll all go back to Galilee together
Galilee won't be easy telling knows who
stay behind just a week ago we came into
the city with all the people hailing him
is king
peace be with you
Master can't be master no it's a spirit
why are you troubled
why do questionings rise in your hearts
master
is it really you see my hands and my
feet that it is I myself
handle me and see
or a spirit has not flesh and bones as
you see that I have
Messiah the Messiah thus it is written
that the Christ should suffer and on the
third day rise from the be and that
repentance and forgiveness of sins
should be preached in his name to all
nations
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
listen a sower went out to sow his seed
and as he sowed some fell along the path
and was trodden underfoot in the birds
of the air devoured it another seed fall
on the rock and as it grew up it
withered away because it had no moisture
and some fell into forks and the thorns
grew up with it and choked
and some foul in the good soil and grew
and yielded a hundred-foot
he who has ears to hear let him hear
Oh
Hey
Oh
Oh
yeah
you
this is a story of the time when all
Western civilization was enslaved by the
might of Imperial Rome from the Rhine to
the Nile from the Atlantic to the
deserts beyond the Jordan the nations
vowed in helpless submission to the
legions of the Empire yet in every
vassal state there were men who clung to
the dream of freedom struck back at
their oppressors planned unceasingly to
cast off the yoke of slavery in the Land
of Israel those who dared were known as
the zealots this was Jerusalem in the
18th year of the reign of Tiberius
Caesar
you
that shop is closed the owner is gone
don't don't knock go away stay where you
are
so the first bird flies into our trap
trap as I guess a lauded by a measured
spice only when the merchant has been
identified as a traitor and a leader of
traitors
search him I know nothing of trains I
came here peacefully for the Passover
Feast my wife told me to bring back some
spices which actually had
haha
I don't know
Oh
come on least out of the way
here let me the rappers
and here
we can get it through there
you don't make
close the door guy
Let Go you fool it is written thou shalt
love
that thought was going to kill me take
this - find about please bow
open in the name of the Brotherhood
can cause water this Mastin hurt
brigands wife is the cut deep stop
bleeding what's happened
Romans almost caught it sword slashing
is that up get here not yet
they're saying up thank the Lord you're
alive and all of you is it a serious
room I have forgotten worse we both have
had worse if it weren't for this man huh
he saved us from pilots dogs now he
needs a hiding place so I brought him
here you're welcome more than welcome
we're old acquaintances
say doc the spice merchant what we have
such as it is as yours bully some wine
for I guess food too he wishes it now
Aaron I've brought 80 men good man they
hidden in the hills above betta what do
you want them to do and when nothing not
now
nothing it's not our fault we're late
your messenger was delayed we'd much do
you night I know all the way from the
border of Sinai some of you have come
even further but our plan tale what plan
walk why if I really have a right and
I'd like to tell my men turn round go
home without an explanation when you
rejoin your men tell them they weren't
summoned for a trivial matter tell them
that if things had gone differently we'd
have broken Rome's hold on Israel
completely one twist of fate and today's
Sun would have dawned on a nation freed
of bondage
united under a new king
the king of our own choosing
we came so close to success
so very good
it all began three years ago in the
valley of the Jordan I had gone there
has had many others to hear a certain
man a man called John the Baptist your
sins and hid his face from you so that
he does not hear turn back to the Largey
over you who have strayed give witness
to him repent your sins for the day of
his coming is near and woe unto those
who are not prepared
he's a book of doom we black overthrow
the powers of Rome like those assembly
miss before his judgment but he has a
gift we can use a leadership he's a free
man
hasn't the main subject da King gay even
Herod Antipas who we call Tetrarch
revels in sin and debauchery Francie's
false marriage with the woman he took
from his brother he may have leadership
but a certain lacks judgment boy a fool
shout accusations against hair it's a
public arena sphere as he needs an
advisor they still return unable to beat
him tied up in regret one time
controller
you have the shrewdness he has the spark
that King Guzman open their hearts to
repentance
grant them Redemption from thy wrath
grant them
the gift of thy forgiveness
now who aren't all-powerful all-knowing
Almighty
come come step forward in the name of
the lord my god
come
on the rock where
no joke
Harrison get the wrath of the Lord
Jehovah are you hurt
Oh shall I have a very hard head I'm a
stout heart deeply grateful to you and
your friend I don't even know your name
he is a doctor spice merchant of
Jerusalem diam and revoir Jonah's
fisherman from Galilee and you my name
is Judas Judas Iscariot with no hope of
using the Baptist to our advantage
I sent Judas westward on mana matters
concerning the Brotherhood and I
traveled south to Jerusalem you Andrew
you returned to Galilee yes back to my
brother and our fishing boat and this
became weeks and weeks a month
then one day while we were hanging our
nets by the Sea of Galilee
you
the day Andrew hello you know my name I
saw you brother Jordan you're the
Nazarene
Simon James John come here
well this is Jesus Bart Joseph the man
from Nazareth oh my brother simon
barjona s' sermon and our friends James
and John bars evident
you know the carpenter
no more no longer will I labor with wood
now my workers with mankind this new
task you've undertaken this work with
men I bring them hope new hope but the
kingdom of God is close at hand his
forgiveness ready for all who repent and
truly believe just the Baptist predicted
if there's anything I can do that we can
do to help you nothing where teachers or
preachers were just fishermen
follow me
I will make you fishers of men
from that day on we followed him not
asking why we did knowing only that we
wanted to more than any other thing
we aren't him preach in our own
synagogue in Capernaum reading the Torah
as expertly as a scribe interpreting the
laws so clearly that all men marveled at
his knowledge authority we followed him
along the roads of Galilee to the
villages towns and cities
learn that the gift Healing lay in his
hands
the gentleness and compassion for all
men build his heart
wherever he spoke the people listened
many followed him from village to
village
among them the man Judas never entering
into the discussions but always studying
a master intently as a masters Fame
increased so did his followers
in certain Pharisees who considered
themselves authorities on a religious
law presented him bitterly why did you
let them break the traditions of the
elders would you destroy all it is holy
all it is sacred
well that Isaiah prophesy of you
hypocrites as it is written this people
honors me with their lips but their
heart is far from me in vain do they
worship Me teaching as doctrines the
precepts of men
gimme
hear me all of you would understand
there is nothing outside a man which by
going into him can defile but the things
that come out of a man are what defile
him
you
Oh
Oh
you
a message
to say dr. Adnan virtutis spices
with humble respect
it is possible our search for a leader
of the downtrodden
is ended
business yes master I promise to take
you along on my next visit to the
leaders of the northern bands next month
you said it'll be sooner than that much
sooner it's urgent that I inspect a
certain Galilean who may be useful so
you can quit posing as a gardener and
start acting as a spice merchant servant
good anything is better than garden
Simon in the name of the Brotherhood
welcome is one friend to another
What's Wrong Simon my dagger carrying
days are over your friends waiting on
the roof you'll sleep cooler up there
wait when you took the zealot oath you
took it for life I swore to love my
country to work for her freedom I still
will in the way I think best and that is
each night I pray that Judea may be
freed pray a hundred years of prayers
haven't loosened our chains there's
seven centuries of hate and plots and
bloodshed perhaps our hope lies in
forgiveness and not in revenge you sound
like a follower of the Nazarene because
I've become one
Oh some rumors about and reached
Jerusalem but you know city dwellers
anything that happens outside the wall
can't possibly be important but the
farther north we came the more we heard
about him the wildest tales of Curie's
of healings
driving out of demons half of Galilee is
convinced he can do incredible things he
can i witnessed several witnessed the
wonder your message said he draws men
like a lodestone the humble the weak the
all but hopeless they talk on our
searches ending the Nazarene is
everything we need for a figurehead if a
man who preaches love your enemy can be
persuaded to join the Brotherhood give
me time to gain his confidence and I'll
have him thinking that revolt against
Caesar is his own idea why has no more
sense of intrigue than a child have you
heard of the aides he's chosen for
fishermen untold exactly for Calais
handed scholars in the art of gutting
fish now what a man with a slightest
knowledge of politics surround himself
with a retinue like that when I first
heard of it they added a new one a tax
collector he dines with him tonight at
the home of Matthew been helped by the
Levi's the ex carpenter with his ex
fishermen something with an ex publican
and half of the other tax collectors of
Capernaum tell me we're not people were
conquered before in centuries past what
kept them together by their loyalty
pride and their faith in God and who led
them to freedom the Lord the great
leaders he sent
today they have neither they look to the
throne for Hezekiah Solomon they find
Herod Antipas we clean libertine pocket
they turned to the temple and say
another Roman porn kfs high priest
by order of seasoned high priest high
traitor to Israel making a mockery of
his robes to enrich his press know other
people have despaired of help from the
temple all the throne leaving only their
faith in the Lord
faith but little hope of ever being part
of his kingdom
not with chaos demanding temple Taksin
that only a few can pay another Nazarene
appears offering redemption to all who
repent salvation to all simply believe
Rome recruits her armies by offering
mere earthly loot how much more this
carpenter of and they believe him and
believe what they want to believe
actually there's only one thing that
might make the people hesitate to follow
him one thing
the humility born of a hundred years of
slavery the humbleness that might make
them say the kingdom is for others not
for me I'm too lowly I'm unworthy but
the Nazarene whose cleverness you derive
proves that all men are worthy by the
example of his chosen companions for
fishermen and the publican
it's possible I underestimated him it's
also conceivable that you might have
read too deep a meanie into a
thoughtless act perhaps perhaps in
either case you agree you can still be
useful if he can be guided and control
he can t he will be
it must have been about that time when
we cross to the far side of Galilee
wrong followed him on foot along the
northern shore in the early morning the
master went up the mountain to pray
I waited farther down the Mount with the
others
and when his prayers were ended he came
to us and from among us he chose 12
James Barr's epi' T and his brother John
my brother Simon called Peter and myself
Matthew the publican young Philip
Bartholomew
Thomas the doubter James son of Alphaeus
that is the man Simon who had been a
zealot and Judas of Kiriath
Judas
and you I have chosen not alone that you
may be with me
but that you may go forth and preach of
the kingdom of heaven
you will be given authority over the
spirits of evil the power to cure
disease and heal all manner of sickness
you are the light of the world
blessed are the poor in spirit
what theirs is the kingdom of heaven
blessed are those who mourn
but they shall be comforted
blessed are the meek
but they shall inherit the earth
blessed are the merciful
or they shall obtain mercy
blessed are the pure in heart
what they shall see God blessed are the
peacemakers
what they shall be called sons of God
blessed are you when men revile you and
persecute you and utter all kinds of
evil against you falsely
on my account
rejoice and be glad
or your reward is great in heaven
or so man persecuted the prophets who
were before you
master this gentleman Simon a thousand
breathing your kindness overwhelms me
what good fortune brings you to
Jerusalem
I came with Jesus of Nazareth he's here
in the city since last week just you and
the Nazarene and the other followers
there are 12 of us every day we're here
Jesus speaks in the temple court I I
wish that you would go to him listen to
him I yes why's that I could tell the
Brotherhood how to free Israel by
learning to love our conquerors it's
written that whoever sheds the blood of
man by man shall his blood be I know the
scriptures I know also that of all Judea
followed your rabbis preachment of peace
our future would be doomed or saved
Simon you've chosen your way I am
dedicated to mine even though we travel
different paths the road that leads to
the top of me bow first times the
foothills heel so high that men mistake
them for the pinnacle itself you ascend
the hill toward a goal of earthly
political freedom for our people it
hides the greater gold beyond the
spiritual salvation of all mankind
taught which he strives
you may find we travel the same Road
Simon
why are you so sure of him do you think
he's the Messiah come to earth a year
ago he was a village carpenter yet he
has such knowledge power beyond any
earthly explanation that all men who
hear him trust and believe him all men
all men who really know him he's at the
temple now will you go there with me
not today
yes master
Rooney I have an errand boy are you
angry with me because on the Sabbath 5k
demands all the spice merchants candles
Greenland's file
tell him I'll visit him soon as I can
right judge he's waiting for you now
hear o Israel the Lord our God the more
thank you
here my friend welcome my home is your
hospitality honors me the boy said you
wanted me at once something wrong the
very question I was about to ask you
I heard you arrived in Bethany a week
ago I expected you to seek me out at
once or I plan to come tonight it isn't
too easy to slip away from the others
without arousing their suspicions do
they suspect you on the contrary they're
just selecting the guardian of our purse
keeper the funds excellent and the
Nazarene what progress have you made
with him he chose me one of the twelve
yes you wrote me about that some months
ago have you won him over to our cause
persuaded him to take the zealot old I
haven't so much as tried hmm no speaking
too soon might have ruined everything
that's the only reason what other could
they do I've heard incredible things
about him that he has supernatural gifts
that he can persuade all men to his way
of thinking and you thought that that I
possibility occurred to me how do you
explain his abilities by his own words
but all powers and wonders come from God
can we explain the Sun for the stars for
the miracle of a sea becoming a flower
no we accept so I accept the abilities
of Jesus bar Joseph and if the credulous
choose to think him touched by divinity
and I suppose when the time comes and
when it does we'll make some things off
we'll have the Brotherhood spread the
word that he's divine that he's a
messiah a messiah
why not once a revolt its excite forbid
it he will be useful to us as a mortal
leader only if he can be won over to our
cause he will be when I have been wasted
my time first I had to win his
confidence now I begin to offer casual
suggestions on an important
later I advise our more vital Affairs by
the time we actually need you're sure
you can succeed all I need is enough
time I met with the High Council of the
Brotherhood two nights ago they sent
orders to every zealot leader to lie low
no raise no forest until Tiberius
believes all Israel is subdued then if
revolt strikes at Gore gothic I'm
arrived
it rose troops from these Garrison's
here and I need a leader who teaches
love and peace can increase his falling
without suspicions
if anyone first let him come to me and
drink he who believes in me as the
scripture has said out of his heart
shall flow rivers of living water
if you continue in my word you are my
disciple
and you will know the truth and the
truth will make you free this is really
the product you might even be the Christ
the Christ to come from Galilee it is
written that the Christ will be
descended from David David comes from
Bethlehem all you are is taxes and
height
he offers eternal life you don't care we
stop you Roman yes Lord honest
arrest this troublemaker take him to
care for us
yes follow
mutro said rabbi from Nazareth tried to
stir up the crowd again one who's caused
so much trouble in Galilee there's
always traveling Galilee but now he's
starting it here you can end it
Laura clip where's your prisoner we
couldn't arrest him
Courtney arrest him but no man has ever
spoken like this man so now he's like
Jew astray also go go
well at least the Nazarene is gone and
more importance than ever thanks to you
important panelists wandering teacher
wherever he wanders the people listen we
follow people yes the people the ones we
must control as Rome wants them
controlled or be destroyed ourselves if
you are so fearful of the Nazarene send
out a stronger God have him dragged back
lashed locked in a dungeon no he must be
silenced more cleverly than that and in
his own Galilee if he returns there who
do we know in Capernaum that we can
trust
tell me rabbi this heaven you praise
will it be the same for all of us truly
I say to you unless you turn in become
like children you will never enter the
kingdom of heaven
whoever humbles himself like this child
he is the greatest in the kingdom of
heaven whoever receives one such child
in my name receives me
and whoever causes one of these little
on the way never mind another room never
fire Thanks
keep going I'll be late
woman of macula now the Galileans
audience is complete they all open the
way mistress ever read in the scriptures
temptations to sin are sure to come but
woe to him by whom they come and yet I
tell you if a man has a hundred sheep
and one of them has gone astray does he
not leave the ninety and nine on the
hills and go in search of the one that
went astray and if he finds truly he
rejoices more over it at over the ninety
and nine that never went astray
hi rabbi I've been listening to you with
interest great interest I want to seek
your advice privately if you and your
friends here with honor me by dining
tonight if you can that will do that
will do
you were in the market square this
morning yes mistress so that's how you
waste your time gaping and handsome
young artists that one seemed quite a
Spellbinder who is he Jesus by Joseph of
Nazareth oh yes I've heard tales about
him what is he a teacher a physician a
mystic or a madman who thinks himself a
prophet not a madman mistress some call
him rabbi others term him master I've
heard it whispered that he he might be
the Messiah but he speaks of himself as
the son of man like anyone else and you
learned all of that from listening to
him once I've heard him several times he
seemed to have some great appeal for
silly girls and stupid old women what
can it be he
he brings us hope
hope that if we truly repent our sins
and have faith
we may be part of God's kingdom
easy promise to me he means it
and he knows if you could look into his
eyes everyone someone to him not just a
another face in a crowd and he has such
kindness such understanding such
sympathy for us all for everyone
oh yes mistress for the rich and the
poor for the powerful in the weak for
the good
and the name you almost said the wicked
didn't you
where everyone is just such a good girl
art dutiful devout innocent high as they
slave in your life away to support your
crippled lover well I could have been a
mealy-mouthed sit by the fire too but I
chose to live my life and enjoy it how
many of these is your purity bought for
you
hi Eddie have a sweeter $0.17 anointment
heavenly crowd had movies and sapphires
to compare with these here put them on
feel their press against your throat
learn what your sniffling psyche has
made you for bit and then tell me you're
wiser is smarter than I am over Lois I'm
I'm sorry
here take them keep them they're yours
you must i order you to you don't have
to keep them sell them if you what i
won't mind use the money to hire the
egyptian physician to cure your mother
my mother's no longer crippled not since
the day a Nazarene
touched her with his hand
you may go
now I can agree with all that you say
about love your enemies as well as your
neighbors our only form
what do you mean love or our enemies
evil Roman tyrants who have enslaved us
if all men love their fellow man there
would be no tyrants and no slaves Oh
Putin not but until that day come what
it does there'll be no problem about
loving Romans they're all be dead
take the procurator's that rooms and to
rule us Capponi as he wasn't too bad nor
markers but honestly now can you say one
good word about Pontius Pilate the sword
rattling course soldier promoted
ah
who are you do you want
how dare you come here get out well
a woman of Magdala and another in stock
market or he wouldn't let her touch him
Simon I have something to say to you
what is it rabbi a certain creditor had
two daggers one owed him 500 in area the
other 15
when they could not pay him he forgave
them both now which of them will love
him more the one I supposed to whom he
forgave more you have judged rightly
do you see this woman I entered your
house
you gave me no water for my feet but she
has wet my feet with her tears and wiped
them with her hair you did not anoint my
head with oil but she has anointed my
feet with ointment
therefore her sins which are many are
forgiven
what she loved much
but he who is forgiven little loves left
last
your sins are forgiven your faith has
saved you
good piece
from that day on Mary of Magdala became
one of us for the master letters she
followed devoted tireless eager
disturbed and the summer turned to fall
we journey southward to Jerusalem we
remained welcome at home in Bethany the
kingdom of heaven is like treasure
hidden in a field which a man found and
covered up then in his joy then he goes
and sells all that he has and buys that
feat but how are we to find that King
how Lazarus
a scan it will be given you seek and you
will find
knock and it will be open to you
or everyone who asks receives and he who
seeks finds and to him who knocks it
will be opened Mary
all things are possible to God if you
truly believe Mary oh your pardon master
but there's so much to be done more than
I can see to alone
the Rhine to be poured and the meat to
be cut and the servants are all master
don't you care if my sister has left me
to serve alone Martha Martha you're
anxious and troubled about many things
only one thing is needful mary has
chosen the good portion which shall not
be taken from master you say ask and
will receive how shall we ask will you
teach us to pray as John taught his
disciples
when you pray say our Father who art in
heaven
hallowed be thy name
by kingdom come
I will be done
on earth as it is in heaven
give us this day
our daily bread
and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us
and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil
I'll bet
Oh
but that stay was short the time of the
Passover was drawing near and a master
plan to join the throngs they traveled
to the temple in Jerusalem I passed
through Capernaum before you left I was
headed north you were all instructed to
cease harassing the Romans but one man
brought himself more important than the
Brotherhood
Barabbas camp from the hills had changed
since I saw it last what once had been a
refuge for the persecuted had now become
a layer of bandits his men had captured
a Roman supply Caravan the loot included
a half dozen skins of strong wine
in of Israel Patriots pledged to free
Judea turn to brigands and swine under
your leadership perhaps they'll be fit
again tomorrow as soon as their heads
clear in the Qatar but um have their fun
they fought who bled and killed enough
Roman not some freedom a gold and jewels
stolen tents some portion masters a dock
master spice merchant a toast a salute
to the Brotherhood
judge sweat
didn't mean to spill no I just one to
drink with an old friend you were
ordered to avoid conflict with the
Romans I built a following by giving
orders not taking them men have come
from all of Palestine to join me because
they know the named Barabbas means
courage and not appeasement appeasement
you were told to lie low as part of a
plan to take the Romans off guard
when when everything was ready not until
then not until then that's what they
told my father in his youth and his
father before him it's easy to sit in
your fine house in Jerusalem and cry
wait wait but when you've seen your
village burned as I've done seen your
wife and children cut down by Roman
swords the decision of the High Council
is a command suppose I choose to ignore
the command of the timid Greybeards
suppose I decide to attack the Roman
outpost tomorrow and then sweep
southward gathering an army as I go I
forbid it
you and your men have regained your
senses return to your homes
those are your orders I command of the
council
prepare the donkeys were starting back
it's our guide our guests back to the
caravan road
I don't be mad at Mesmer Zadok he's a
good man there's a beautiful garden
I was just gardener once when I was
hiding from
can this be the famous Barabbas a great
leader who so graciously accepted my
gift what gift
the last loot you'll ever steal six
skins of drugged wine
you take my advice you'll stay away from
Jerusalem the BRABUS is executed and
forgotten we don't want your counsel
just your hell up with what three
Barabbas with all the two of them oh it
may be possible you know the
procurator's customer freeing a prisoner
on feast days yes but hardly Barrabas it
may be Barabbas up for people demand it
I've sent messengers to assemble the
Brotherhood but some might not get there
in time we'll have to fill the courtyard
round the judgment-seat
and that'll be your job mine yours with
the army of pilgrims who follow your
Galilean you can't convince him to add
their voices to ours can't you I doubt
it but you will try his powers aren't an
army they're just people who want to be
here well they would obey Him wouldn't
they at all and if you wanted to
persuade him is Jeb I not go give the
boy his supper he hasn't eaten yet
surely brute arts wrong Judas nothing
you can't persuade him to help her now
can't you and then any matter worth the
effort
two years ago you thought he'd be easy
to control a year ago you wanted to use
him as a false messiah
now you hesitate to so much as ask a
favor of him why you admit the BRABUS
flats orders and jeers at Authority now
he's a worth the free even we could be
done he is
thanks to Roman stupidity they paraded
him the length of Palestine made a
captive hero of a symbol to the people
for the man I spent weary hours to
cultivate does it become secondary to a
cutthroat bandit from the hills never
mind we'll have need of him the urgent
task now is to free Barabbas and your
duty is to help I'll do what I can
the time will come toward the end of the
Passover week Thursday perhaps Friday
get in touch with me as soon as you
reach Jerusalem I will good fortune
there's a man I'd never count on and
you'd be wrong men take those evidence
for the score of reasons adventure
revenge and ideal the hope of gain but
Judas is bound closest of all he's
possessed by a demon demon the devil of
ambition the lust of power and authority
he wants to be a leader he'd sell his
soul for it but he knows he hasn't the
spark now his aim is to be the power
behind the throne
Judis what have you been why just
outside the village to visit a friend
why the master and the others have gone
I waited to tell you
gone where to Bethany come on if we
hurry we can overtake the messenger came
from Mary and Martha Lazarus is ill Mary
it was good of you to come master but we
could not get word to you in time my
brother
the day the messenger left Oh Lord if
you had been here my brother would not
have done
your brother will rise again I know in
the resurrection at the last day
I am the resurrection and the life
he who believes in me though he die yet
shall he live
and whoever lives and believes in Me
shall never die
do you believe this yes Lord
my love is my thought if you had been
here my brother would not have died
where have you landed
take away the stove Lord he's been dead
for four days did I not tell you that if
you would believe you would see the
glory of God
father I think be the balusters Denis
I know that thou hearest me always but I
have said this on account of the people
standing by but they may believe that
valid Sidney
Lazarus
come for
Oh
passers
on my name and let him go
it's incredible incredible but it
happened
I saw authority over death itself no
mortal ever had such power what until
now could he be more than mortal not
long ago he asked the twelve of us who
people thought him to thee Andrews said
they compared him to John factus young
Phillips had arisen prophet Elijah
Jeremiah and then he asked our school we
saw him to be Peter was the only one
that answer he said you are the Christ
the Son of the Living God the Son of God
well they were Peters words not mine
I've lived traveled eaten and slept with
Jesus by Joseph for more than two years
and I've studied him more closely than
any man he's learning but his human
mortal flesh and blood just like you and
me and briar scratches it legs he he
bleeds the day is hot he thirsts he
hungers he sweats he tires he laughs he
cries what God or the Son of God has
such weaknesses her suppose not knew no
I would not know Zadok we haven't
discovered the Messiah but we have on
wasn't we saw tonight his name is on
every tongue in Bethany and by tomorrow
sweet Jerusalem a city filled by the
devout and just longing for a leader
they can honor and respect for a David
for a Solomon for our new King of the
Jews
a new penis came with all Israel United
behind him king by demand of all Judea
for the people already there like tinder
waiting for the flame we have enough of
the Brotherhood to supply the spark

would it be willing to take the risk you
will be you're certain
I'm sorry

the temple one that isn't that a
prophecy about this sort of these
something about a king coming hungry yes
yes there is the scroll of Zachariah
rejoice Jerusalem like King cometh he is
just and having salvation lowly and
riding upon an ass he remembered he
planted all along
strange he didn't remind you if all must
have thought of it after I left I better
join the other gurus but the hour is
come on you're hiding something it's
nothing nothing womanizer in you refuse
the terms you were offered i offered no
turns I told him nothing he might have
refused and now I can't not when the
crowds heal him is king not when they
demand he take the throne no man to

I'll do what I can the time will come
till the end of the Passover week
Thursday perhaps Friday get in touch
with me as soon as you reach Jerusalem I
will good fortune there's a man I'd
never count on and you'd be wrong

reasons adventure revenge and ideal the
hope of the game but Judas has bound
closest of all he's possessed by a demon

up again tomorrow on the -
rally them again was he out of his mind
what
I
it is written my house shall be called a
house of prayer but you have made it a
den of robbers Lizzy the guards where
the guns no an ort but you could have in
jail for such a jail he must be ignored
or destroyed completely and only pilot
can sentence Amanda death
we could trick them into making a
treasonous state neared west try what in
colonial you think that true der man
might I would suggest if you retain a
teacher we know that you speak and teach
rightly and show no partiality and truly
teach the way of God but tell us is it
lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not
if he says don't give those sword
swingers will arrest him for treason he
says give he'll have the whole crowd
against him come teacher what's your
answer
and that question
show me your calling
whose likeness and inscription are on it
why Cetus
then render to Caesar the things that
are Caesar's and to God the things that
are gods
greetings have you heard what happened
today ah the Nazarene make fools of
canvases pet toady's in the argument
about the corn yes well he really seems
their bids the story is being told all
over the city yesterday he proved his
courage by driving out the courtyard
parasite single-handed now the masses
although he is brilliant as well
couldn't get here to help with the
preparation still not how are they
coming some of the men have arrived but
not enough to fill the courtyard the
courtyard
oh no I didn't mean that I meant to
arouse the people again Judas in a way
it might be best to wait for as many of
the Brotherhood as we can on the other
hand we mustn't lose the people's
excitement perhaps the last of the feast
days would be right or do you think it
should be done sooner not for a year at
the earliest a year be tuned
maybe never but that's ridiculous insane
you heard how they cheered him they
followed the very gate of the temple and
I saw him weep and turn away
well they remember that you did this you
insisted upon me Barabbas the head of a
master I didn't but I would have Judas
now you listen to me all of you you're
throwing away a kingdom we can't stir
them up again or more easily than before
no risk no risk at all well a blind man
can see the care of his fears a Nazarene
he doesn't dare order his arrest if k of
us were fool enough to arrest him we
could rouse the people then it'd have a
cause to fight for a hero to free his
enemies to destroy now they have neither
and K if it's a shrewd enough to know
that dangerous past a wise man faces
facts only a fool denies them and only
the cowardly stop one step short of
victory alright give up hope
all of you but I won't not now
if games were fool enough to arrest him
we could rouse the people and it'd have
a cause to fight for a hero to free his
enemies to destroy now them neither gave
us a shrewd enough to know the dangerous
past a wise man faces facts only a four
denies them and only the Carly stop one
step short of victory
the first day when crowds Hilding King
his courage failed he was afraid that
you and the procurator laid a trap and
now now a maneuvers tool of your fears
when he's certain you're off guard
you'll order his followers to strike at
the temple that you do well as elet's
assassinate Herod then as high priest
and King he'll be in a position to
bargain with Pilate if you've been as
close to him as you say why are you
betraying him I trusted him I thought it
was Messiah now I see him for what he is
will you repeat all this to the
procurator no why not if it's the truth
because you'll seize Jesus Pilate would
put slaughter him and his followers to
the last man I'll guarantee your safety
mine but not there's other good men just
fooled by him as I was he alone is your
threat arresting imprisoning the threat
is ended
we have no charge against him without
your testimony and if a zealot friends
learned that I betrayed him No
no will alter the terms I named full
secrecy enough money to see me to Egypt
no one need know if we take you to pipe
pilot blue I trust no rooms man doesn't
sell his life for a handful of soup No
not his own
yeah
nobody
truly truly I say to you a servant is
not greater than his master oh is he who
is sent greater than he who sent him
if you know these things blessed are you
if you do them
I am NOT speaking of you all I know whom
I have chosen
is that the scripture may be fulfilled
he wait my bread has lifted his heel
against me
I tell you this now before it takes
place so that when it does take place
you may believe that I need
truly truly I say to you one of you will
betray me

doors after his evening meal now what

knowing him
what's so important about it my god wait
till it is not something about tomorrow
being their Sabbath excellency so if it
can be done today Sabbath holy days
feast days they waste more time on one
God than we do on a thousand his
excellency Pontius Pilate procurator of
Judea this is the prisoner yes
excellency
where's the delegation waiting outside
excellency bring it in they big the
directions to come out to them something
about entering a Gentiles dwelling
during their Passover they rouse me at
dawn and expect me to come to them
report Rickson our apologies what are
you discussing see this man who brought
what is he accused why he claims to be
the Son of God he's a false messiah he
even claims to be the Christ yes he
calls himself a head without an evildoer
we would not have handed him over Rome
has no interest in your Christ's or
messiahs
take him to yourself judging by your law
but it is not lawful for us to sentence
a man to death if your excellency will
merely endorse this rid of our judgment
wait here
what is slays if I say this is the man
who caused that clamor four or five days
ago yes excellency
but nothing Carolyn something did not
for care this to want him executed or to
want me to execute him
are you the King of the Jews do you say
this of your own accord or did others
say it to you about me Amaya drew their
own chief priests handed you over to me
what have you done My Kingdom is not of
this world if my kingdom were of this
world My servants would fight so you are
a king you say I am the king for this I
was born and for this I came into the
world to bear witness to the truth truth
everyone who is of the truth hears my
voice what is truth
I have questioned the prisoner I find no
guilt in the man but he stirs up the
people he preaches sedition Revolution
is spoken against all throughout all
Judea from Galilee to this very city
from Galilee see a Galilean yes known as
Jesus of Nazareth and he comes under
Herod's jurisdiction not mine head on
excellent gene and Terry yes excellency
take the prisoner to the temple any move
of care versus maybe a chap I love them
detest it he knows it hates me plots
night and day to discredit me with wrong
he knows time to resorted me to keep the
peace at any cost yet he asked me to
execute a man whose followers may revolt
why didn't you release the man so campus
could send what a decision that I'd
freed the man who had set himself up as
king in defiance of Rome oh I see
housing the problem under Herod with a
clever move a statesman smoove divided a
free hand in order to keep the peace I'd
order the Galilee and beheaded all his
followers with him then I turned the
courts loose on the temple
I'm Caiaphas when all the fat cats is
around him well did Herod find the man
guilty no excellency the prisoner
refused to answer the tetrarch's
questions so Herod mocked him draped him
in a torn purple robe and sent him back
back but he's a Galilean so I told him
excellency but Herod claims the crimes
were committed in Judea in your
jurisdiction so headed plots against me
to please my lord it may be the carrot
fears the same thing to you
Tom's more more good news
only the campuses join the delegation
awaiting your Excellencies decision
I are excellency we are honored by your
presence no doubt you brought me the man
as one one sights the people I examined
it I do not find him guilty of your
charges but relax indeed no and neither
did had it nothing deserving death has
been done by him I will for order him to
be chastised and released no silence in
the name of Caesar Benitez get out my
order to the temple bring back every man
you can hurry
I already black nothing more
whose idea was this well it was a sort
of jest your excellency they're calling
him King of the Jews so one of the men
made him a crown remove it No
well wait
this is track excellency
this is a trap I'll make careful step
into it for me of all the prisoners in
the cells which one is the vilest
Barrabas robbers bandit cutthroat murder
bring him here
bring him here
having folks let me the master say up
here Paramus they've taken it from this
cell to the Praetorian come on the men
there's more time you must go yourselves
on your way out
the robber
yes excellency
therefore says you claim to be the Son
of God
where are you from
you won't speak to me don't you know I
have the power to release you or crucify
them
you would have no power over me unless
it had been given you from above
therefore he who delivered me to you has
the greater sin
now I'm in careful step into his own
trap before witnesses
they all I bring it out to you that you
may know I find no crime in him right
they own the man
I got here we brought the man the fear
we could
if you release this man you are not
Caesars friend everyone who makes
himself King sets himself against Caesar
it is the custom every Passover for one
prisoner to be released
shall I pre this one whom you hailed is
your king or this rather murderer known
as Barabbas Barabbas free Bharata
what should I do with Jesus who is
called Christ crucified
what evil has he done
I am innocent of this man's blood
see to it yourselves
release Barabbas
it is better far better but one man
should die and the Peace of Israel be
maintained
I have said that betraying innocent
blood see to it yourself
you
if you can perform miracles do one he
claims he can save others let's see if
he can save himself
save yourself now if you go
other forgive
well they know not what they do least
you breath forgiving them truth Christ
save yourself save us don't you fear God
you and I were dust ly condemned we are
receiving the dew rewards for our deeds
but
this man has done nothing wrong Jesus
remember me when you come in to your
kingdom
Fuli i stated
today with me in paradise
as Judas been found
what is the sign say
since Jesus of Nazareth King of Lagoon
no pilot had it put there as a JIRA cams
you never know how close to the truth
that just came out loud here go back
this is a Nazarenes mother
hope
behold
bye son
my father
my god
my god
by this alpha city
I thirst
you
but into thy hands I commit my spirit
it is finished
and so he died and proved himself a
mortal man not a divine messenger not
the Messiah that but some people thought
he might have been and for these two
days since his death
pilots cohorts have combed the city
seeking the leaders of a revolt that
never took place and a Roman guard
stands watch over a sealed tomb that
contains the body of the man who might
have been our King the guard has been
removed Nazarenes body was stolen when
the woman went to the tomb this morning
for the ritual anointment the stone was
rolled aside the body gone they came
back to tellus trying to convince
themselves that he had risen like
Lazarus talking about some vision they
saw or thought they saw my brother went
to the tomb there was nothing there but
the grave cloths that's the story now
you know why you were summoned why we
failed I understand I must be getting
back to my companions and I to my men my
thanks for your help my friend and mine
for the shelter you go towards the
Damascus Gate in that direction some of
us will go with you
this is where I must leave you may we
meet again someday under better
circumstances for all of us I'm sorry I
didn't know the Nazarene as you did he
was a brilliant man and a brave one we
may never find another to regrow I am
some of the others believed he was the
Messiah once I thought so too
what if he had been the Messiah he
wasn't he died was suppose he had been
what then then Simon would have been
right when he said we both travelled the
same road you and I to the foothills and
he to the great of pinic or beyond
there well my friend may the Lord watch
between me and thee while we are absent
one from the other
Oh
I sent Thomas to find you where have you
been hiding from the Romans it's all
right now
have you decided what we will do not yet
we'll talk about that later I'm safe
we'll all go back to Galilee together
Galilee won't be easy telling knows who
stay behind just a week ago we came into
the city with all the people hailing him
is king
peace be with you
Master can't be master no it's a spirit
why are you troubled
why do questionings rise in your hearts
master
is it really you see my hands and my
feet that it is I myself
handle me and see
or a spirit has not flesh and bones as
you see that I have
Messiah the Messiah thus it is written
that the Christ should suffer and on the
third day rise from the be and that
repentance and forgiveness of sins
should be preached in his name to all
nations
Oh
