(Door opens)

Jesus, have you ever been arrested?

No.

I haven't.

A man comes out of the desert
preaching beautiful words -

freedom, we can live like birds of the sky.

You're young, I understand.
We all long to be free.

Miracles.

- He has performed...
- What look like miracles, yes,

I believe he's done things that appear...

He talks about love.

Do I not love my people?

You are a priest.

I am entrusted by God

to protect all the people of Israel.

There can't be trouble
during our most important sacrifice.

I need to know what Jesus is planning,
things he says to you and maybe not to us.

I will find out.

Jesus isn't a bad man, Judas,
trust me, I don't believe that.

But if Judeans turn away from the law...

they'll be no better than the Romans.

We'll be devoured.

Jesus may not realise,
but that's where his preaching is leading.

They'll see it as sedition.

Can you imagine, Judas,
the slaughter, with the Romans?

Is that what you want to see?

The prefect of Syria? Humph!

Tomorrow. He's already on the road.

He's on his way to Rome.

Rome?

Why's he going to Rome?

And he wants to see me on his way?

The letter, does it give any more?

- You won't believe who's coming.
- I already heard.

We've no fresh meat, not a scrap.

Every lamb in Judea is being sacrificed.

Give him wine, he won't even notice.

I'm not serving him salted meat.

Send the servants out.
There's bound to be meat somewhere.

I don't trust them. I'm going.

Out? Into the city?

What do you want him
saying about us in Rome?

You're right.

Marcus, take some men.

Passover or no Passover,
show the shopkeepers we mean business.

Open up!

Shut up.

On the floor! Now!

Get in there, you pigs!

Get down! Stay there!

This man stole wine
from the garrison stores, Prefect.

Flogging.

Next!

Attacked a caravan outside the city.

- Flogging. Are you getting all this?
- Yes. Next!

Come on, you.

Kneel.

The charge is murder, of the tax inspector.

Jesus Barabbas.

Scum.

I'm a soldier. I'm not a criminal.

A soldier? Where's your uniform,
your standards?

The people are starving, kicked off the land,
defenceless people.

You ambush a defenceless man,
slit his throat and rob him,

and I should honour you as a soldier?

No. Crucifixion. Take him away.

Next.

Murder, Prefect, of a pilgrim.

Another one.

Two.

So who do you fight for?

- No-one.
- For fun, then?

Crucify them, for fun.

(Soldier) Come on!

We don't want you here.
The elders instruct us.

Then you must listen to what they say,

just don't do what they do.

(Laughter)

Living in the biggest houses
and wearing the finest clothes.

So wealthy.

How great these men must be.

But where does their luxury come from?

Temple taxes.

Pennies from the poor widows.

Gifts from the sick and hungry.

They hide their greed well,

with loud praying,

grave faces.

How holy they are.

How important.

I tell you, it is easier for a camel
to pass through the eye of a needle

than it is for a rich man
to enter the kingdom of heaven.

(Laughter)

(Distant laughter)

He's back.

At their councils,

do our leaders talk of justice?

Mercy?

No.

Power.

Power is their concern.

And their standing in the eyes of men.

Who shall sit where
at the biggest celebrations.

Not their standing in the eyes of God.

Make no mistake,

I'm here to turn the world upside down.

Those who appear great to you now
will be humbled.

And those who are truly humble,
they will be honoured as your leaders.

(Whispers)

Rabbi, I think we've done enough.

Enough? You see the temple?

In time, not a single stone will be left standing.

Every one will be torn down.

The temple will be destroyed,

not a stone left standing.
You heard him say those words?

Yes.

It takes a bird seller to tell us his plans.

This is the man you said I should debate with.

It's blasphemy.

This man wants to destroy
everything we've worked to protect.

He doesn't care about Passover, about Judea.

Love?

Love!

What kind of love puts your people in danger?
What kind of love is that?

If we lose control of Jerusalem
and the Romans take over,

Judea is finished.

So, what can we do?

Two hours.

Two hours to cross the street!

Pilate, why do you allow these festivals?

My emperor wants me to.
A peaceful Judea is his dearest wish.

A peaceful Judea?

You might as well look for hen's teeth!

(Matthew) Say it to him.
(Peter) What?

- Say it to him.
- I already have.

I'll tell him. Wait, Jesus!

Jesus, wait.

We've made our point now.
We should go back to Galilee.

Caiaphas could turn to the Romans.

None of us would be spared.

Each of you...

All of you will be spared.

I will be sacrificed.

You'll witness a miracle.

But not the one you expect.

What?

I'll be taken by these powerful men.

I'll be mocked and spat on.

They'll whip me and wound me.

- No.
- They'll execute me.

And in three days I'll be raised up.

We need you.

- People are listening to you.
- Peter, you're not listening.

I'll be raised up from the dead.

Don't you understand?

You'll see death defeated.

Don't you feel frightened?

Of course I do.

But at the same time...

I know God will never abandon me.

- But you'll abandon us.
- John...

I'm your faithful servant.

I will never desert you.

- You will see me suffer and die.
- No.

No, don't.

By my wounds, you will be healed.

Through my sacrifice,
the sins of the world will be cleansed.

You'll have no more need of animal sacrifice.

You will know God saves you.

- Don't give me these words.
- They're not just words.

I had a family who loved me!

I had two boats, a good business,

and I walked away from it all
because you asked me to!

I sacrificed everything to follow you.

Do you really believe I did all that

to see you hand yourself over
to the Romans?

I know this isn't what you dreamed of.

- Come on.
- John!

I know this isn't what you dreamed of.

But I told you before,

if you try to control your life,
you will lose your way.

And if you let go of your life
and place your trust in God...

you will find it.

Have faith.

Follow me.

And you will know God.

Do you think he's serious?

Why has Tiberius sent for the Syrian prefect,
do you think?

Why should you care?

He has thirty thousand troops.
In all of Judea, I have less than three.

Any excuse, he'll swallow us up.

What excuse could he have?

Who knows what Tiberius will believe?

There.

He's ready, he's getting impatient now.

Just like his father.

Feel it.

You should get some sleep.

Forget about Jesus.

Yehuda thinks I'm weak.

- I don't stand up to Pilate.
- Shh.

- If I can't make them listen...
- You will.

They always do.

Do I give in too much to the Romans?

You've kept us safe.

We're not safe now.

Not with Jesus.

- God has entrusted you.
- Hm.

I know you'll do what's right for all of us.

Jesus is only one man.

Jesus.

I'm frightened, Rabbi.

(Judas sniffs)

This is a hard road we're on.

Why won't you save yourself?

I choose to do my father's will.

And you must choose.

Judas, a man may have
many fathers in his life.

It can be hard for him to know
which one truly loves him.

Caiaphas?

Have every member of the council woken
and brought here for a meeting.

But Passover...

Go and wake them now.

Come.

Let's go. Follow me.

What's she doing?

- Teacher.
- A woman?

A woman like this, touching you?

Which one of you has never sinned?

Who?

He can tell me to leave and I will.

If you were one of the group, you could have
sold this musk and given it to the poor.

It's worth a year's wages.

Don't attack her because you're angry with me.

You'll always have the poor.
Any time you like, you can help them.

You won't always have me.

Don't you understand?

She's preparing me for burial.

He attacked the moneychangers
in the temple.

Even then, I tried to listen.

We sent priests to speak with him,
but no, only criticism.

And we are not to be criticised?

Of course we are.

But can't you see this is different?

- This is a challenge.
- To whom exactly?

He's threatened to destroy the temple.
Is that not blaspheming?

One of the bird sellers heard him.

"I'll tear it down,
not a stone will be left standing."

He claims he can forgive sins,

he can purify prostitutes and lepers
without any sacrifice.

He's as good as said the elders
should be evicted like bad tenants.

At the very least,
Jesus should be called to account.

- Arrest him?
- We could lock him up.

Hold him until after Passover.

If we lock him up, his supporters will riot.

Then what?

That's why I've called you together.

We have to decide.

If we allow his blaspheming to continue...

he will inflame more and more of the unruly.

But if we imprison him,

they have their reason to riot.

Are you prepared for that?

To see our temple once more stained
with Judean blood?

The blood of our children.

If we're to act against Jesus,
we must be willing to sacrifice him.

If he leaves us no other choice,

we must send him to his death.

A moment ago we were talking about
arresting him, now you want to...

I don't want! This is not what I want.

It is the only answer I see.

Only the Romans can give the death penalty.

That's right.

Arrest him tonight,
and if he refuses to withdraw all he said...

- hand him over to the Romans.
- It will be a Roman execution.

- Hand over a Judean?
- A blasphemer.

Only if he doesn't repent.

I will not be a part of this!

Joseph, stay! You belong here.

All of you do.

The future of Judea is in your hands.

I am your high priest entrusted by God.

If I believe one man should be offered up
to save the rest...

then I will say so.

(Murmuring)

We've nothing prepared for Passover.

Judas, take a lamb to the temple
for our Passover offering.

John, you and Peter.

Where?

Where will we celebrate Passover?

In Jerusalem.

Here in Jerusalem I will make my sacrifice.

Go to the last well near the temple.

You'll find a man. Follow him.

Where's the man? They're all women.

Upstairs there's a guest room. It's furnished
with a Passover oven, it's prepared.

Why are you doing this for us?

I heard his message. I believe in him.

- Do you think he'll go through with it?
- You know how stubborn he is.

Why don't you leave?

You and James.

Go back to your families.

I belong with him.

Come. Come.

He'll have your lamb ready.

Move.

Your teacher is celebrating Passover?

- In Jerusalem.
- Whereabouts?

I don't know.

A bird seller's more help to me
than you've been.

He's somewhere in the city. I'm to meet
the others and they'll take me there.

Will he sleep in Jerusalem?

He hasn't before.

But there is a garden near the city

where he likes to pray during the day.

At night, after eating, he likes to walk.

If you know he's planning to walk there,
come to us.

Take my men and point him out.

No.

No. Please.

Please.

I'll tell you where he's going to be, but...

I could never point him out.

In the dark, they might not recognise him,
they could be fooled.

The Sagan, he can pick out Jesus.

Just do this.

For me.

I won't forget you, Judas.
