"It was the year of our Lord." "Jerusalem was ruled by" "King Herod the Great." "Ruthless and greedy, he ignored the laws of God and chose the favor of Rome over his own people." "But from the darkness, emerged light." "The time had come to bear witness to a two thousand year old prophecy." "A Child of God would be born." "Taxes!" "Taxes for Harod and Caesar." "Taxes!" "You!" "Taxes!" "Taxes for Harod and Caesar, come." "Taxes!" "You, bend your ear." "Double." "Taxes." " We need money to - feed our children," " Not to line the - pockets of Rome!" "If you cannot pay the taxes, claim a monthly loan." "No one can ever recover from such high interests." "Stop your sniveling, pay your taxes." "It's easy for you." " You just keep raising - your prices." "Your family has not suffered." " This does not bode - well, Joseph." "No, I fear that it will get worse as the crowd rages." "King Herod is building a port that will make Israel the centre of trade." " We will all benefit - one day." "Build, build, build, that is all that madman does." "At our expense." " Come, Aaron - let us go." " Aaron please let - us go home." " I am not a servant - to Herod." " I will not be - silenced..." " How dare you speak - ill of the King!" "Who speaks ill of the King?" "This man, my lord." "Let this man be made an example of." "Cut off his hand!" " No I beseech - you, no, no!" "Such anarchy will not be tolerated." "No please, please, please," "I beseech you, please!" "Do it!" "No, Aaron, Aaron!" "Stop!" " Perhaps there - is another way." "Who dare defies me now?" "Forgive me." "My name is Rabbi Elijah and I am but a humble servant of God." "I mean no disrespect." "Yes, this man was out of line," " but he seems an - honest citizen," "With a wife and children." "How will he pay your taxes with one hand?" "You're offering me your hand instead?" "An equal restitution." "Allow him to work off his debt, not once but two-fold." "That way you will collect more than you came for, and this man, this husband and father, will remain whole." "No, an example must be made." "Cut off his hand." "No, no, no!" "No, no, no!" "Let this be an example to you all." "Guards on me!" "We'll be back." "Aaron, Aaron," "Aaron, don't die!" "Re-bekah." "You must protect my wife and sons." "Do not exert yourself." " Don't die, don't - die, don't die." "Help, help, help!" "Please..." "Promise me..." "No, no, no, help, help, help!" "Thank you." "Are you well?" "Yes." " God's messenger - said that this Child" "Will bring a great light into this world." "I feel blessed, but I don't understand why he chose me." "You will make a wonderful father." "Good morning" "Joseph, Mary." "Greetings Elijah." " I see you have - a new project." "I am well motivated." "Do you have any news from yesterday?" "Such a sad business." "How is she, the poor widow?" "Rebekah." "Not very well." "It's a tragic loss." "Tragic but inevitable." "You were right, Joseph, the people have had enough." " Herod has - gone too far." "His vision comes at a cost." "Wrongly or rightly, Herod believes he is uniting Israel." " If anything will - unify Israel," "It is the hatred of this common enemy." "Do you not agree, Joseph?" "I do not agree with" "Herod's methods." "But hate only fuels civil unrest." " Even if it is against - a common enemy." "What do you suggest?" "I don't know." "Perhaps compassion, love?" " Is that what - you believe?" "Love an enemy?" "My friends, the words 'love' and 'enemy' are not compatible." "Love an enemy." "I fear the heat has finally gotten to you Joseph!" "Will you join us for supper, Elijah?" "Sadly not this time." "I'm on my way to Nazareth to bring provisions to Rebekah." "Then let us offer you these provisions." " Do not trouble - yourself." "Take care of you and your own growing family." " Rebekah needs it - more than us." "And everyone needs a helping hand." "You are very kind." "Thank you." "Safe travels." "This is most generous of you." "My friends, Mary and Joseph are always the first to help." " Please thank - them for us." "My daughter and I are most indebted to you, Rabbi." "Please, it is no trouble." "Is there anything else you need?" "Please." "Please, please." " Let me help - you with that." "I wish I had the words to soothe your daughter's suffering." "I would like to honor her late husband's request." "If it pleases you." "We can use all the help we can get." "Thank you Rabbi." "The baby is kicking." "He is strong." "Like his mother." "I have a surprise for you" "My friends Mary and Joseph will soon have a child as well." "Want to help?" "Please give this to" "Mary for her baby." "Finished." "The crib looks beautiful, Joseph." "Your finest handiwork yet." "Are you certain you're well enough to travel to Jerusalem?" "We must go." "We have to register in the" "City before the new moon." "I just wish the census did not have to come at this time but I will not leave you here alone." "It will be as it should be." "Ow, ow, ow." "It's kind of you to accompany us to Jerusalam, but, you'll need better shoes." "Thank you." "I am much obliged..." "It is nothing." "Rabbi, the people have had enough." "We must do what they ask us to do." "Ready for this?" "Rebekah Welcome." "It's been far too long brother." "Thank you for seeing my brother's family here safely." "Will you not stay and break bread with us, Rabbi?" "I'm afraid I must get back to my friends" "They are with child." "But I will see you all soon." "We have no room here." "Thank you." " Please, I beg you, we're - exhausted." " We've been - traveling all day." " The town is full because - of the census." " We'll take anything - you've got." "There's nothing." "Thank you." "There's no room." "What?" " We've been to every inn - in Bethlehem." "You're the last one." "If not for us, surely for this lady." "If you would have come a few hours earlier, perhaps." "Now, I have nothing to offer but a stable." "We'll take that." "You cannot possibly sleep with the animals!" " Your poor wife - is with child." "She just needs rest, and the stable will be fine." "Thank you Elijah." "Here, you sit right there." "Here, sit here." "Sit there while I make your bed." "There you go." "I know you're tired, you rest." "Rest will do you good." "Dear Lord, please grant me the courage and strength to carry out your will." "I dedicate my life to serving you and your Son." "I shall do my best to protect" "Him above all else." "Thank you for the blessing of Mary and this Baby." "I am truly humbled." "City?" "Jerusalem." "City?" "Jerusalem." "One." "City?" "Nazareth, one." "City?" "Nazareth, two." "It is time." "You honor us with your presence." "We come to bear witness to the child." "To the one who has been born King of the Jews." "Disturbing words." "I am King of Judea." "We have followed the sign of the star." "And have come to pay homage to him." "And where is this" "Messiah to be born and why was I not informed?" " There are many - prophecies, my Lord." "Not all are revealed." " Yes well let's speak - on this one." "Of the Messiah." " Where is he to - be born?" " My understanding of what the - prophet had written" "Is that it could be in Judea." "Possibly Bethlahem" "Well, then you must go to Bethlehem," " and search diligently - for this Child;" " And when you - have found Him," "Have word sent to me, so that I may also go and worship Him." "We bring you gifts." "Gold." "Frankincense." "And Myrrh." "He's expecting us to report back to him." " Who is Herod - to us?" "We are Kings of Men." "We return home a safer way, protecting the one true King." "We journey East." " Well congratulations," " Joseph!" " I cannot believe" " I missed it all." "My head pounds as if a thousand sheep" " were being herded - across it." " Wine can be your - best friend at night" "But in the morning..." " We had quite the - visitors last night." " Did you not - see them?" "They seemed to be men of importance." "He is beautiful." "Where are they?" "!" "It's been three days!" "I should have been sent word by now!" "How am I to know when this so-called Messiah has been born?" "Stop following me and find out!" "Your son is so alert for an infant." "Have you decided on a name?" "Jesus." "Jesus of Nazareth." "What a fine, strong name for a fine, strong boy!" "This paranoia runs rampant." " I heard he has - spies everywhere." "My neighbor, old Caleb, opposed Herod." "He hated that our taxes were being collected to build a golden eagle in front of our holy temple." "Such blasphemy." "Soon after, Caleb disappeared without a trace." " Will Herod's oppression - ever end?" " Perhaps sooner - than you think." " Rumor has it he - is rather ill." "Ill or not, his greed remains healthy." "And I fear a great revolt is coming." "On that note, I had better get back to my Rabbinical duties." "Leaving so soon?" "My work at the temple summons me." " My thanks for - your hospitality." "Nathan, I would like to speak with you." "It's a matter of some importance." "Later this evening." "It's a matter of importance." "You said that already." "Yes, If I may?" "Of course." "We look forward to seeing you tonight." "Elijah." "I did not get the chance to tell you but, my boy asked about you every day when you were away." "And you?" "Did you think about me every day as well?" "Yes, a little." "That's a start." "Until tonight Rebekah." "Until tonight." "This moment is something to treasure," " our Son's first - blessing." "The first of many, as God wills it." "We must do right by this Child." "Sometimes I doubt myself as a mother." "There is no mother who is finer." "And God knew it when" "He chose you." "He chose us, Joseph." "This boy is our Son and we will raise Him to grow strong, to be filled with wisdom, and God's grace will be upon Him." "Come." "Good day, I am Joseph of Nazareth, this is my wife Mary and our Son." "We offer these two doves in the law of the Lord." "You have come as we knew you would!" "I am Simeon, son of" "Jacob, and this is Anna, daughter to Phanuel, a prophet in her own right." "I am surprised that you were expecting us." "Yes, of course!" "As our sovereign Lord had promised we would witness this." "Praise God, this has come to pass." "Have you named your son?" "Jesus." "Jesus of Nazareth." "May God watch over Jesus of" "Nazareth and both his parents," "Joseph and Mary." "He is the light." "He can reveal God through the glory of your people." "Israel!" "We are humbled by your kind words, blessings from you both." "But take heed." "This child is destined to make many in Israel fall..." "He has been sent from God as an example for all of humanity." "But many will oppose Him." "Thank you." "Joseph, Mary!" " What good fortune - to see you!" " I can already see how - much he's grown!" " Are you here for - his first blessing?" "Yes, we just finished." "Speaking of blessings..." " Have you mustered - up the courage" "To present the kettubah to" "Rebekah's father yet?" "Tonight." " May good fortune - be with you." "Thank you." " Are you staying - in town?" " Yes, at a - nearby inn." "We set foot at dawn." "I'll see you back in" "Nazareth in a few days." "Tiberius." "Round up the Rabbi's." "They are the eyes and ears of these people." "If anyone has heard anything it will be them." "Yes my lord." "Yes, I hear you, I hear you, I hear you!" " We have to - worry about..." "The taxes will be dealt with but we have to remain calm." "I understand what you're upset about." "But we have to be careful, Harod has spies all over the city." "We must take heed." "Herod was appointed by the" "Emperor himself as our King." " Do not lose - sight of that." "A king who murders his own wife and sons." "Herod has no more royal blood in him than you do." " He's not - even a Jew." "His mother was a daughter of an Arabic Sheik," " his father from" " Idumea." "But he is our leader..." " And our hands - are bound." "All Rabbi's are ordered to come with me now." "Where are you taking us?" "Thank you." "Welcome, Rabbis." "Do not be alarmed." "I have summoned you here for some information." "Who amongst you has recently journeyed to Bethlehem?" "Tell me, on your travels, did you happen upon the Magi?" "And you, Rabbi who did not answer yay or nay." "Come forward." "Yes?" " I only caught a - glimpse of them." "So you saw them?" "Yes, from a distance." " They took pause - at an inn." " Who else was housed - at this inn?" " Travelers for the - census like myself." "Did you happen upon a young boy?" "Yes, there were several." "Did the Magi take any special interest" " in any of - these boys?" "May I ask why you are interested in these children?" "No you may not ask." "Answer the question!" "Did the Magi speak to any of them?" " I could not say - for certain." "I had an extra cup of wine with dinner and the rest of the night is a blur." "Silence!" " The Magi have - told me that" "The Son of God has been born in Bethlehem." "And yet none of you forewarned me of this miracle!" "Sire, if we were certain that such an event had come to pass, we would say." "You, did you see such a child of God at this inn?" "I really couldn't say." " But I do remember - something." "Yes?" " The Magi journeyed - south before sunrise." "South?" "Yes." " Not North, here - to Jerusalem?" "Or East to their homeland?" "No, they journeyed south." "Get them out of my sight!" "You summoned me?" "Fetch Tiberius." "Tiberius, wake up." "Get up." "Wake up!" "What is it?" "Harod." "Harod!" "You summoned me my lord?" "I have been betrayed." "This ends tonight." "Slay Him, slay the Child." "Slay all the male children under two years of age." "No!" "Joseph, what is it?" "We have to go." " But it's the middle - of the night!" "Pack everything, we must leave for Egypt now!" "Joseph, what's wrong?" "I had a dream." "Jesus is in peril." "In peril?" "What kind of peril?" "Herod is searching for him." " He wants to - kill Jesus." "Tonight." "There!" "What is happening?" " The Magi betrayed - the King." "They were to tell Herod where to find the infant boy" " that they believe is - the Messiah." "So Herod believes them?" "Apparently." " And as long as - this child lives," " Herod sees him as a - threat to his throne." "He is but a boy." "The boy will become a man." "Herod has given word to slay all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who are two years old and under." "All the boys?" "Rebekah!" " Get out of - my home!" "Step aside." "All boys under the age of two are to be terminated," " by order of King" " Herod the Great." "No, no, no!" "No!" "No, my baby, no!" "My baby, no!" "Stop!" "No, no, no!" "No, no, no, no, no!" "No, no, no, no." "I will never forget those cold eyes." "I will avenge their deaths." " An eye for - an eye." "Tooth for tooth." "When we find that Roman Soldier, he will meet his retribution." "This, I vow." "Just as I served your father, so I shall do for you, my King." "Sire, your people wish to see you." "I wonder what became of Rebekah?" "Maybe she moved." "Let's go." "Come on Jesus." "The Scriptures have no room for misinterpretation." "Death is death." "This is final." " You are being - too literal." "There is room for interpretation." "There is an afterlife!" "Where God punishes the wicked, and rewards the righteous." "Nowhere does it say so in the Torah," "You are wrong!" "Tell me something." "If a widower remarries seven times, which wife would greet you in your afterlife?" "The widower's favorite, of course." "I disagree." "God will decide." "Why cannot all the wives be there?" "You speak so freely and confidently for one so young." "Tell us your thoughts on this matter." "Since God loves all His Children," "I would think all seven of the widower's wives" " would be accepted - into his Kingdom." " By that logic, are you - saying that even" " The widower's enemies - should be accepted" "Into the Kingdom of God?" "Shall we not love our enemies as we love our neighbors?" "Tell us your name." "Jesus." "Jesus of Nazareth." "A thousand - pardons, Rabbis." "We are looking for our Son." "Where have you been?" " Your father and I have - been anxiously searching" "For you." "Why were you searching for me?" "Did you not know I had to be at my Father's house?" " This is not - our house." "Passover has finished." "We must journey home." "Of course, Father." "Apologies for the interruption." " Jesus, we were - so worried." "Sorry, father." "Joseph?" "Mary?" "Elijah?" " It has been - so long." "Where have you been?" "Where have I been?" "Where have you been?" "When you disappeared I was so worried." " We were in Egypt - for a while," "But we've been back in" "Nazareth for years." "Are you well?" "Your farm stands empty." "Mine is rather a long story and one to be told another day." "Do you have plans to Nazareth soon?" " Yes, with my - wife Rebekah." "You remember her?" "Of course." " It will be nice - to see her again." " She'll be happy to - see you as well." "We've been staying in" "Jerusalem with her uncle." " But with his recent - passing," "We are making plans to return to Nazareth." "We are sorry to hear of your loss but it will be good to have you back home again." "Tell us, have you been blessed with children?" "Sadly not as yet." "Your son has grown!" " I can hardly believe this - is the same Jesus" " I held once in - my arms." " How old is - he now?" "12 years." " Time has passed - so quickly," " We can scarcely - believe it ourselves." " Well he certainly - delighted the temple" "With his original way of thinking" "Does he have plans to become a Rabbi?" "If it is God's will." "Well, we look forward to seeing you back home." " Please give our - blessings to Rebekah." " Yes, we'll be - home soon." "You have barely spoken two words since you were last at temple." "Sorry, I keep thinking about something" "Herod said to me a long time ago." "Do not speak of that madman to me." "Nothing he said or did ever made sense." "You're right." " Seems that moving - back to Nazareth" "Is bring back memories that are hard to dismiss." "Welcome - back home!" "Please, please, come in, thank you for coming." "Rebekah, it is so good to see you again." "Joseph and I were saying how so many years have passed." "This is our son, Jesus." " Should I go - to her?" "She just needs a moment." " It's been a very - difficult time." "What with her uncle's passing." "The truth is her grief runs much deeper." "Twelve years ago, her father and two boys were slaughtered by Herod's men." "It's become our life's mission to find the soldier responsible and avenge their deaths." "Seeing your son is just a reminder of how old her boys would have been." "But I am glad, as I am sure my wife is as well to find that some boys survived the slaughter." "Like Jesus." "We can't imagine the pain and suffering you've endured." " How did you - get away?" "I saw you at the temple just hours before the slaughter." "Herod's arms were long that day." "How did you get away?" "I apologize, I am sorry for earlier." "Your son warms my heart in ways that I cannot explain." "Come, these are for you." "Thank you." "Please." "I must set an example that dissidence will not be tolerated." "Where was the revolt this time?" "There were several, my lord." "In Betharamptha and more recently in Nazareth." "The Publican was killed by a mob of angry Nazarenes." "I cannot lose favour with the emperor." " If they would just - pay their taxes" "And stop challenging the Romans." "They need to be taught a lesson." "Tiberius, you are the only one I can trust." "I am promoting you as the new publican to Nazareth." "Collect the money and debts that are owed to me." "And use whatever force is necessary." "Go!" "That's good." "Okay." "Alright son, now go grab some of the twigs over there." "We need to stuff them underneath the larger pieces of wood." "There we go." "It does not seem fair." "I know I should not covet from my neighbor, but I cannot help feeling envy for what they have." "Then it makes both of us sinners, my wife." "I do not know if it is because" "I miss your boys but there is something special about Jesus that I cannot ignore." "Be careful, Rabbi." "I know the path well." "Just follow in my footsteps and you will not fall." " You know the path - well, then?" "Yes, my Father showed me the way as a child." "We travel it together." "It seems you two, are very close." "He has taught me everything" "I know, about life and love, and that love will always flourish and pay you in kind." "Not always." "Sometimes you can love and still suffer for the sins of others." " Are sins ever - to be forgiven?" "No." "But my Heavenly Father forgives us of our sins." "No he does not." "It is clearly written in the scriptures that God shows no mercy to the guilty." "But He sends rain and feeds both the righteous" " and the unrighteous, - does He not?" "That is different." "Who is teaching you such blasphemous thoughts?" "My Father, of course." "I will have a word with Joseph." "You are mistaken." " I did not mean" " Joseph." " I meant my" " Heavenly Father." "What did you say?" "My Heavenly Father." "Be careful, Jesus." " Talk like this will - get you into trouble." "You speak of our Lord as if He were your very own." "It seems we are at the crossroads, Rabbi." "Are you coming with me?" "Not this time." " I must take my - leave, Rabbi." "My Mother awaits me at the market." "You are thirsty." "Come, let me get you some fresh water to drink." " Come with me, - it's okay." "I's okay." "Come." "It's okay." "I am unclean." "I cannot." "You are all equal in God's eyes." "Unclean!" "Unclean!" "Drink from the animal trough, you filthy wretch." "But she is like us." " What are you - doing, boy?" "My Son is just doing what we should." "Offering a hand of kindness to a thirsty woman." "Have I offended you, woman?" " Why do you stare - at me so?" "Have care." "This is our new publican Tiberius." "Come, let us go home." "Are you not well," "Rebekah?" "You're trembling." " Who was that - man to you?" "That man is the reason that I don't have any children." " And that I likely - never will." "That man killed my boys." "I must go." "Bethlahem." "Ruler over Israel." "Prophecy." "King of the Jews." "Messiah." "He's here, he's here." "Who?" "Tiberius." " The man who sleighed my boys, - the new Publican." " Eligah, he's here, he's - here in Nazareth" "Go, go, kill him." "He's here?" "How do you know this" "Tiberius is the one?" "I would not forget that face." "Or those eyes." "Or that voice." "He bears the scar that I left upon him." " Did you not - hear me?" "Yes, I..." "Eligah, go, go kill him, go now!" "Soon." "I promise I will give you the peace you seek." "Rabbi, may I ask you something?" "Certainly, how can I help you?" "I need the advice of a more learned Rabbi." "If the Messiah were born today, how would we know?" "How would He present Himself?" "Micah's prophecy?" "That's interesting." "I believe you would know in your heart if you laid eyes upon Him." "What if your heart is telling you one thing" " but your head is - telling you another?" " Why are you so - interested?" "Has something come to pass?" "If for example a child were born with a wisdom and clarity beyond His years, in Bethlehem under the brightest of stars, would that be enough?" "Possibly, it meets the prophecy's criteria." "But the bigger question is how do you feel when you are with him?" "If it were true I would say that my eyes have seen it and my heart has felt it." "When I am with Him I feel the pure grace of God all around me." "Then I think you know your answer." "Joseph." "Oh, Elijah, you've come at just the right time." "Could you help me place this beam please?" "Of course." "Oh, the rope." "Thank you." "So, have you mended your fence yet?" "I can come help you with it later." "You look like you've worked enough for today, my friend." "Speak for yourself." "I'm as strong as an ox!" "So, to what do I owe this most pleasant visit?" "Your son saved me yesterday from a great fall." "Oh." "He spoke nothing of this last night." "Were you hurt?" "I am well, but it's strange the way life works, wouldn't you say?" "I do not quite follow." "I never told you this, but twelve years ago," "Herod questioned me about the birth of a boy in Bethlehem." "Around the time of" "Jesus' birth." "Questioned you about what?" "A child of God, he called him." "Herod questioned me about the Magi, and I lied to him." "I told him they went in another direction." "I don't know why I did that." "I have thought about that moment for years." "But you know why, do you not, Joseph?" "The prophecy has come to pass." " I did not know - for certain." "Until now." "Is it done?" "Is Tiberius dead?" "Of course." "Tiberius." "Have you forgotten my boys already?" "!" " Rebekah if you - only knew," " Something extraordinary - has happened." "Elijah, all of this searching and all of this waiting!" "Nothing matters but justice for my boys." "Take it!" "Take it!" "Thank you." "Oh no, thank you." "Let us help you my friend." "Here, I'll carry those, thank you." " Thank you for - your kindness." "Rebekah, Rebekah." "12 years gone and I still see their faces everytime I close my eyes." "Have you forgotten the teachings of our father?" "And our father's father?" "Have you forgotten your vow to me?" "I've not forgotten." "Lord, grab me the courage and the strength to right the wrong done to my Rebekah." "Show me the way and I shall not fail you." "That's quite a formidable blade." "Necessary for a formidable foe." "Perhaps it is best to turn the other cheek, Elijah." "Elijah, you don't have to do this." "This does not concern you." "Killing Tiberius will not bring back the boys." "Rebekah told Mary that" "Tiberius killed her children." "Then you understand what I must do, what any man must do." "You are my friend." "I am deeply concerned for your salvation." "I am correcting a wrong according to scripture." "Or do you not subscribe to them anymore?" "Your inner peace can only come from forgiveness." "Forgiveness?" "!" " Should welcome this - murderer into my house" "With open arms?" "Of course not." " But I have - to say this." "You do not have slay your enemy." "Pity Tiberius instead." "And let the hand of God tend to him." "And who took pity on Rebekah's boys?" "Where is your husband?" "He will be back soon." "Is there something I can help you with?" "I have come to collect your taxes." "My King does not tolerate tardiness." "I will come back at dusk," "You better have it ready for me." "Aaron, it has been far too long since our last visit." "I am well enough, but..." "It is Elijah." " I sense a - change in him," "And I know not what it is but it nags at me." "Perhaps he is not strong enough to do this." "But if he cannot or will not seek retribution for our boys," "I promise you that I will." "Father, you're back!" "Hello Jesus." "Joseph, the publican came by earlier." "He'll be back later." " Are you and" " Jesus all right?" "Yes, yes we're fine." " But you don't - look well." " Joseph, you - need to rest." " You've been working - tirelessly." "I just have to finish fixing the door and then I will rest." "I promise." " Please, father, - let me do it." "Okay son." "I'll take this respite but" "I have much work to do." "I promised Elijah that I would help mend his fence." "The fence can wait." "Elijah will understand." "I hate that I am a burden to you." "Stubborn perhaps, but never a burden." "Now rest while I make you something to eat." "Take heed!" "What happened?" " The new publican will - not be trifled with." "We should just pay him and then he will leave us alone." "No, the more we pay, the more he will demand." "I say we fight!" " Where is he, where - is the Publican?" "He went west." "It will not end." "How much more blood needs to be shed?" "You go that way." "You go that way." "Elijah?" "!" "Elijah!" "Where are you off to in such a hurry?" " You know, I've been - thinking about you" "Since I ran into you in the market." "I have a good eye for faces." "And yours has stuck with me all day." "Tell me your name." "Rebekah." "Rebekah." "I see." "Tell me, Rebekah, have you ever lived in Jerusalem?" "Because you look very much like a woman who wronged me." "I suffered greatly before this healed." "And now, there's no feeling on my face." "Touch it." "No." "Go on." "No." " It hurts, does - it not?" "What would a monster like you know about pain?" "I will show you pain and we shall see." "You cannot hurt me more than you already have." "We'll see about that." "Kill him!" "We have been waiting for this day for a long time." "You may be a soldier of Rome but I am a soldier of God." "And I would take my odds against yours any day." " Would you punish - a mere soldier" " For following the - command of a king?" "Her child was five!" " There was no royal - order for that." "And you know it." "Kill him!" "Stop!" "This is not the way." "This does not concern you." "Choose forgiveness over retribution." " Elijah, you don't - listen to him!" "Do not listen to him." "Elijah please, look at me." "You know this is wrong, you know that." "Elijah, kill him, kill him now!" "You will leave Nazareth and never come back." "What are you doing?" "!" "He's doing" "God's will."
