[Music] [Applause] [Music] Glanor, our King is [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] King [Music] [Applause] Victor K Victor

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] My Daniel, my boy, home at last. Is it over? The Ammonites are defeated?

Abigail, and not a moment too soon. It's almost Passover. Has the lamb been selected and approved by the Levites this morning? The rites have been performed. They didn't say I can... No, no. I want to do it. Daniel, come with

me. Ah, here it is. This is our lamb. Exactly one year old, spotless. The Passover is in 6 days, which means today is the day we have to anoint his feet. But why? Because he's going to come live with us in our house for 5

days. We have to mark him as special and keep him clean. Understand? Clean? Yes. See, after 5 days you're going to offer him as a sacrifice to atone for our sins. The oil smells good, right? This is the sacrifice of the Lord's Passover.

But he passed over the houses of the people of Israel in Egypt when he struck the Egyptians but spared our houses. Even the royal family eats unleavened bread during Passover when God redeemed our people and set us free in Egypt through Moses. Our ancestors had to leave so fast that

there was no time to let the bread rise so they took their dough before the yeast was added and carried it on their shoulders in kneading balls bound up in cloaks and God commanded us never to forget I have one more Passover story to

tell you one that goes all the way back to that very day they left with no time to let the bread rise this is a bridal [Music] [Music] oh Child come on in jump in the water back all trouble with a mess you walk on

the [Applause] water walk on the water Row on the water Row on [Music] the on the the word has spread that he raised a man 4 days dead at Bethany and and there were over a 100 Witnesses they were only

witness to the man walking out of the Tomb they did not see him go in which means it could have been staged why would so many people have come to Shiva if the person wasn't actually there he has orchestrated more elaborate spectacles in the past I was bleeding

for 12 years and my faith in him healed me that's no illusion who can corroborate the facts of your supposed previous condition are you really getting into this and where is Jesus now will he show up for the feast I doubt he would miss the Passover unless

he has something to hide the coward won't show his face he is no coward how can you call him a coward when not a week ago he stood up to you and other leaders when you tried to stone and arrest him we do not take blasphemy

lightly the law commands we put to death false prophets. You would have us shrink from our duty. I know what happened to me, and I know what happened to me. He's the Christ, and instead of embracing his power, you you feel threatened by it because he will be your Authority when

he is King. Insent W you will recount your St or what you'll Stone her too. Tell us more about Jesus. If I understood any of this, it would be remarkable, wouldn't it? Jews from every corner of the known world could do without the endless

slaughtering of lambs, the shrieking, the blood. You've read the story. What's to understand? I guess care, it's what I meant. If I cared, it would be remarkable. Tell yourself whatever you like Bas, but I bet if I look in your

library, I'll find a piece of flatbread. Stop it! You know I've eaten it all. Why has Tiberius not sent more troops? He knows the scope of this pilgrimage. The population doubles and doubles again. It's more than just the

numbers, it's the fervor. Maybe Caesar's testing you to see if you can have one week without incident. Test? I intend to pass with your help. Oh Aus, have you heard about the ghost? What ghost? Everyone is talking about the ghost of Bethan, that

ghost? That's true, then. So what if it was raising of the dead? Corpse one minute, fully restored the next. The superstitious Madness knows no end. So you don't believe it? Of course not, right? I have seen some things that uh [Music] I can't

Explain I haven't decided if it matters or not. Well, Jews have rallied around less of phenomena before with lethal consequences. Now you're thinking clearly, governor. For them, it doesn't matter if it's true, it only matters if they think it [Music]

Is see, we're concerns me is is that it concerns Caiaphas. I I don't know if he believes it or not, but I can tell he's spooked. Caias, yeah, well he probably doesn't believe it, but

he is spooked that the people do. It's all right, they'll be fine. You just need to know whether the arrival of a Jewish sorcerer is a good thing or very bad for them. Yes, yes, this one is called Cove, three parts myrrh, two parts cassia. Lovely for burning

to purify a house. Tonari, and this one is Cleopatra, four part Cypress, one part myrtle, and rose oil. Very good for skin and hair. 15 dinari, top shelf. H, not top shelf enough. Excuse me, I want to see your oils

that aren't for sale. I know you have them. I've been to dinner with many wealthy people. I only bring those out for my most loyal and liquid customers. Wait here. Derived from a rare flowering honeysuckle varietal, high in the Nal

mountains, used to anoint kings in China and India, protected in a premium alabaster vessel for temperature control. Pure spike knot. How many ounces would you like? The whole jar? My, you are charming dear, but truly, what do you think? 1 and 1/2 oz? I said the

whole jar. I, it's not possible. This job would cost more than half a year's wages, and I need the supply to satisfy my wealthiest clientele. And it would take me several months to obtain another jar. You need to listen. This is for the most important

King the world has ever known. 300 dinari, a full year's wages. You can take the rest of the year off. Whether by sorcery or necromancy or other dark arts, we can no longer deny that these so-called signs have been escalating in perform

each more outlandish and more, using, than the one before. We say they are just performances, but what about the resurrection of one Lazarus of Bethany? There is no proof, and rumors like this are exactly why this Rogue is a pox to

this entire institution. Has no one in this room considered the implications if this man was indeed brought back from death? That's what we're doing right now. No, we are strategizing how to keep the status quo and hoping these signs cannot be on this issue. I am with Gadara. Jesus of Nazareth is

not Elijah the Tishbite. Only Elijah can raise people from the dead. What if he is Elijah? Honored Nicodemus encountered him in Capernaum and observed. Sit down, Yousef. Nicodemus is recovering from illness, but I am certain he would agree. You do not

know what you say. My own father was at the Shiva for Lazarus and witnessed the miracle. Everyone, please listen. The possibly false teachings of Jesus of Nazareth and purported signs are the very reason I came to study in Jerusalem in the first place. I have the most

complete record of his words and deeds. This matter of Elijah, it bears investigation. I will go to Bethany and ask him myself if he claims to be Elijah. You don't have any more questions? The man claims to be God at the Feast of

dedication. If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him. I'm seeing it firsthand, even now. And Rome will want to prevent a revolt. Pilate will come and take away our positions here in Sanhedrin and then destroy our entire nation. Exactly this

is the future we can expect. Hi, PR Caius. May I go? Good, uh, you know nothing at all. I have already been given a prophecy from God and I believe it is about this, exactly. The prophecy is that a man will die for the people so that our nation

will not perish. This may be that man. We will hand him over ourselves before there is an uprising. Rome will not destroy us. They will be grateful. The only answer is immediate arrest and execution. Ask, I did not say immediate. We are not legally allowed to

execute anyone with the exception of a ritual stoning within the temple courts. If his death is to be public and the spectacle, it must be done by Rome. If we move too quickly, they won't recognize the favor we've done them. Herod Antipas

and his court will be arriving in Jerusalem for the festival soon. They'll be attending the annual state dinner with Pilate's administration. I'll see to it the topic is brought up. He is pathetic, and also, we ought not to be endorsing his attendance at the state

Making sure our voices are heard is not the same as endorsing It Shine. I will make sure a letter is waiting at Herod's compound in the city when he arrives. This meeting is adjourned. This is no longer a about God to them. Yousef, you're just now noticing

I have recently suspected some of them to be utterly void of conscience, good will, or true devotion to Torah, but this proves it beyond all doubt. What are you going to do? Your father was at Bethany for the raising. Yes, he was a close friend of

Lazarus. Could he arrange a meeting with Jesus? I've observed the man, I've I've confronted him, even prayed with him, but never conversed openly without an agenda. You don't have an agenda now. It is true that he has power over life and death and surely must be my

father. He is a rational man, not given to sensationalism. I simply want to know what his intentions are. After all, we we want the same things, don't we? To uphold the faith and honor God's law. I wonder if it's as simple as that. I'm not

suggesting any of this is simple, but we and Sanhedrin have been only reactionary toward Jesus. Perhaps all of us, myself included, have been too quick to take offense to his words. I had not considered the sum of his teachings and deeds as worthy of a fair and

open-minded inquiry. Sanhedrin is well beyond that. Your father could at least get us to Lazarus. Right, that much I know. Yes, and let's go to him immediately. That is little time to waste. [Music] That time of the year again. Great time

It's Shabbat, please guys. The Passover always makes my job a little easier. The town nearly empties, I would imagine. So, will you miss us? It's not like we get to just take the week off. Who is it that stays behind? The elderly, those with children, the infirm and

the caretakers. Makes sense, but they still observe the Seder meal. Yes, Seder. I am aware. You can expect to see an uptick in demand at the market for apples and walnuts and cinnamon for the charoset apples. Walnut cinnamon, we'll be making your

own, not this year. You will be with your husband for the holiday. That's the plan, yes. And that means you will also see... Yes, hopefully. I can't imagine not. It's uh, it's strange. I wish I could go with you all. I mean, you could... No, you know it caused trouble

and I have my family to think of, my full family thanks to him. Please send word to Jesus of my gratitude and love. I will. And tell Peter I said shalom. Shalom. Okay, make sure you say it twice. I wouldn't do it any other

way. And tell Matthew that... Yes, just make sure he's all right. All right, everybody, time to go. You sure you don't want to come? Thank you for passing the messages along. I won't hold you [Music] up. Are we late? Almost. You have the pro-or of

Capernaum to thank. If he hadn't stopped to talk to Eden, you would have missed your ride. Come, we still have to get M and my kids. Hope he enjoys his week off. This is our first Passover, Mitch. Never seen the Holy Temple. Can you believe

that went better [Laughter] [Music] [Applause] I [Music] for [Music] [Music] [Music] for for [Music] [Music] [Music] is [Music] [Music] look at the city never seen it so

crowded for Passover before telling you it's because of all these rumors of a magician from Nazareth some place for a magician to come from who'd he learn his tricks from a goat he'll be coming for the feast yes I hope so I've been hoping

to meet him for a long time he sounds so entertaining your honor this is from high priest Caius apparently it's urgent cuz it's nice by the way so Lazarus 6 days to go have you selected your lamb yes he's out back I just need to

perform the rites bring him in whenever you're here I seem to neglect all my duties oh you're not neglectful we just have to soak up our time together are we expecting someone no one knows where Mary is but she wouldn't

knock we should be careful who we let in these days agreed Aran Mara much better circumstances than the last time you came to my door come in thank you it's turn now Nazarene bye-bye shalom shalom shalom shalom please I don't mean to interrupt

I brought with me here a member of the Sanhedrin you remember me of course I do I'm relieved I had not made a great mistake in bringing him here and the newcomer to the Sadducees this is he gave warning in advance that people were looking

for you, I was looking for you. Well, you found me, and congratulations to you both on your appointments. Capernaum is finest. Please, will you join us? Please. Shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom. This is a tremendous opportunity for a strategic alliance. Yeah, we'll see.

We have reason to believe that there is danger lying in wait for you at the highest levels of Temple leadership. I would not have expected that. I'm joking. Go on. [Laughter] Jesus of Nazareth, your situation has become a matter of life and death. That's always

been. They tried to stone him in the temple courts. What we mean is your fame has gone beyond fame. It's not just many in numbers, but much in debate. Late. It's because of him. Oh, I'm sorry. I'll try not to die next time. No, it's it's all part

of the plan. Your ruin, that's part of your plan, because that's where this is headed. Is that what you've come to tell me? You've called yourself the son of man. Here we go again. I'm not here to contest that or take offense this time. I'm open.

I can tell. I see it in your eyes. If you are who you say you are, what is your plan? The entire city of Jerusalem is eagerly awaiting your arrival for Passover. Some with open arms, others with daggers. Do you have an army? We don't know

about it. If you are more than a rabbi, you will have more than just Rome to overthrow, but also many religious leaders. They will not join you in your quest. Perhaps you can help them do so. I... This is the week. Rabbi Shuel, what would you like to

See, regardless of who, what is your hope for a Messiah to usher in a new Davidic kingdom that drives out our oppressors and restores justice and glory for Israel? Glory, yes, on a glorious throne with prosperity for all, a new golden age with Israel as the light to the

nations, revealing God to the peoples of the world. And you, what will you do in that day? Worship, serve? I hope. How could I possibly know until that day comes? I will tell you when the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him, then

he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered nations, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and will place the sheep on the right, but the goats on the left. Then the King

will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom that has been prepared for you from the foundation of the world, for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a

stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.' Then the righteous will answer him saying, 'Lord, when did we do these things for you?' Then the King will answer truly,

'I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.' Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no

drink I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me. Then they will answer him saying, "Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or

sick or in prison and did not minister to you?" Then he will answer them saying, "As you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me." This is a hard teaching. I do not know how to make it

less so. The the Son of Man, the Messiah, is identified with the lowest of all people: the hungry, the poor, the Stranger. It's what I've been preaching from my opening sentence on the mount, but what of all the Torah requirements and traditions upheld by our forefathers?

The prophet Micah distilled such things down to their essence, and you overlooked it. He has told you, "Oh man, what is good and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justice and to love kindness and walk with your God." Yes, but how do you harmonize that with

the parting conclusion of Kohelet in the Kim: "The end of the matter, all has been heard: fear God and keep his Commandments, for this is the whole duty of man." A new commandment I give you, that you love one another, just as I have loved

you. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, that you have love for one another. What of the temple, the sacrifices, the law, the feasts? Are not keeping these how nations will know we are God's people? The temple, the

sacrifices the law the feasts all fulfilled in me you would do away with it I said fulfilled not done away I don't understand the difference keeping the law is a response to God's love but now that I am here, there

[Music] what is the matter where have you [Music] been you were saying about the law what's going on who is this my sister Mary Mary Spike n Mary what are you doing you're letting your sister touch his feet that's degrading have you heard

nothing of what the teacher has said all right this is enough Jesus once again Shel there is no law in Torah commanding that a woman cover her hair it's just tradition you're commending her excusing her shuel we don't know this family it's not our

place blessed are you king of the universe for you have done all things well you herand we need to leave no understand but we have performing an inappropriate act openly without shame and he is allowing it while being called God we can't be found out for having

witnessed it and done nothing an open investigation you said let's see what he says pure nard of the highest quality what troubles you Judas why was a soan not sold for hundreds of dinari you just told a story about how caring for the poor is it can do caring

for the Messiah yes this could have been given to the poor this could have be used for anything supplies shelter things we need but this this is a waste where did you get this money man leave her alone she has done a beautiful thing to me for you will always have the poor

with you and whatever you want you can do good for them but you will not always have me she has done what she could she has anointed my body beforehand for burial, burying me. Let him finish and believe me, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in

the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her. What your followers said is right, this act was wasteful, immodest and completely contradicts everything you said before about the poor and lonely. He said they will always be with us. The very notion that such a

disgrace could be proclaimed throughout the world as part of your gospel when instead it should be reproached, rebuked and condemned. It's I can't be in the same room with this abomination. Sounds like a personal problem. I wanted to believe. I came here to give you a chance

and you've ruined it. I'm sorry I couldn't help you. I'm sorry I couldn't help [Music] you. Thereby that is not a man we want to upset if we're trying to unite our [Music] people for burial. [Music]

You, where are you going? I, I don't know. You're the one who asked why the nard was insult and given to the poor. I'm not sure I should be talking to you. I think you're the only one in that room with any sense in your

head. It doesn't take much sense. I was just pointing out the facts. If the parable he said was true, then everyone should have seen how incongruous the waste was. Should have been more decent. What are you going to do? I'm not like you. I believe he is the

One, I spoke up in that room because I care about all of us getting this right. We have an opportunity this coming Passover to unite over a million of our people against our oppressors. This is too important to be divided. I agree with you, our people

should be united. I better go. May I speak to you again? My apologies again for the AR to photo. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Jesus wanted to talk to him. He's glad you came. Shuel made his choice. I want you to know I do not share

his indignation. Please, I know. Good luck on the right back to Jerusalem. Seems like it could get awkward. I will manage. We manage. Shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom, shalom. Plus, show us some solidarity with

me and enjoying the finer things, huh? And stop pretending you're a fool. I don't know why you hate being Jewish so much. I like this bread, you hate it. I like it, you hate it. I do not, however, enjoy accommodating these unprecedented crowds.

I can't believe we made it to this dinner without running someone over. Not that you would have noticed if you did. You do know why there's so many people here this year, huh? A lot of times people can find excuses. Oh, my IMA is not

feeling well, or my horse is pregnant, it's going to give birth. I rolled my ankle, the pain is excruciating. The journey is too long. I'm not coming this year. But this year, this year, this year, what you're telling me, you really don't

know I want to hear you say it well apparently there's some kind of medical worker go on go on say his name Jesus of Nazareth Hades and sticks Claudia he was almost there Nazareth no one important or significant has ever come from there the very fact

that Claudia and I know his name suggest otherwise no one inherently important I admit I am somewhat curious about the perception others have of him yeah I would imagine so seeing as how the words new King have even reached my house what words your king specifically

specifically I'm sure it was just a joke so what about the issue of the man from Bethany H the one they say was raised from the dead I received Assurance from the high priest the claims are being investigated according to Caiaphas who's

not given to overstatement if the raising of Lazarus is confirmed the masses of people will rise behind them and you'll be looking at an Insurrection on the scale of the Maccabees didn't you just say that he was just a curiosity to you and before that no one

of import now you're referencing the Maccabees what am I looking at here Sky's words not [Music] ours if Lazarus is all that this comes down to then you are all woefully unskilled in the art of cunning

P your move would be well if you want to delegitimize Jesus by proving that Lazarus is still dead then make sure Lazarus is still dead he means kill us I know what he means I'll pass your idea alone hold on if Jesus did indeed raise Lazarus and

Caiaphas has Lazarus killed, and why wouldn't Jesus just resurrect him again? [Music] Well, now that would really be something, wouldn't it? [Music] [Laughter] They come on foot, hundreds of miles to an overcrowded city with uncomfortable

lodging options. Do you believe in anything so much? I wonder what it would be like to have that kind of belief. We believe things, what if it cost you something dear? Would you believe it then? I don't understand. I'm so sorry. Um, it's Joanna, right? Yes, I'm Claudia. Yes.

I know, thank you, Joanna. I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how you must have felt down there. How I felt, everyone can see what's going on between Cha and Cassandra. Oh, yes, the goal that he would bring her here under the guise of what, that you

all needed a travel companion. It's disgusting. It is. Well, truthfully, what you're picking up on is something I've already dealt with. He and I no longer share a bed, neither do Pontius and I. Oh, nothing scandalous, he says I thrash too much.
