YANNI: Did he tell you his name?!

- Jesus.

- Jesus who?

From where?

SHMUEL: Lineage? Origin?

- His favorite food?

He told me his name; that’s it.

- There were a million Jews
here for the Festival,

thousands named Jesus.

- Jesse, stop pacing.

- With all due respect, Rabbi,

I've been still for 38 years.

- Tell us exactly what he said.

Again!

- He told me to go and sin no more...

that the result of sin

is far worse than being crippled.

- And to pick up your mat.

- When he healed me, yes.

But, he found me earlier today, as well.

SHMUEL: Was anyone with him?

- Eh... three men?

One was taking notes.

I think another said a few words
to me as Jesus disappeared.

I barely heard anything, I--my legs!

- Jesse?

- The others said something.

But by the time you finished yelling at me,

they were all gone.

- Think!

What else did he say to you today?

- They were going to see...
Jesus’ cousin, I think?

- It was him.

It was Jesus of Nazareth.

Nazareth?

[market conversations]

- Jesse?

- Yes?

How do you know my name?

- The word’s out.

So, it’s true, then.

You're on your feet.

- Are you Roman?

- Does my accent give me away?

- I already told the Sanhedrin all I know.

[Atticus chuckles]

- I was born Roman, yes,

but I'm just a man.

I had to see with my own eyes.

I believe... it was a miracle.

- I know it was.

- Oof.

Life changing... hmm?

But forbidden.

You must want to shout from the rooftops.

- I do!

- Do you at least have anyone close

to share the good news with?

Friends?

Family?

- I encountered my brother
almost immediately

after leaving the Pool.

- Incredible!

And what did he think?

It’s safe.

Jesse, you can tell me.

- He believes the man
responsible has to be...

our Messiah.

Hmm.

- Messiah.

- Yes.

- Remarkable.

SIMON Z: My God,

the soul You put into me is pure.

You created it, You formed it,

- If you can kill me...

- Are you a Roman?

- No.

- Tax collector?

A demon will go on,

pass through the waterless places,

If you're strong enough
to have lucid moments,

Until you find someone
who can truly help you,

God bless you.

- Would you believe,
this isn't the strangest thing

that's happened to me in the past week?

- There's a smell on you.

Something vile.

- I hugged my brother goodbye yesterday

at the end of the Feast.

He'd been lying in a pool of his own--

- Is he a... holy person?

- Not for a long time.

- It has a bad feeling about you.

- Thank you.

ANDREW: He said after the Feast

we could find him near
the Jordan, outside Jericho.

SIMON: We passed Jericho a while ago.

JESUS: Near is a relative term.

PHILLIP: John's never

[John the Baptist screams]

- Whoa!!

[John and Jesus laughing]

[laughter]

- Come here.

- Hello, cousin.

I heard about the scandal at the Pool!

I love it!!!

- I figured you would.

- They're gonna come after
You so hard for that!

- Ah, let them come.

I see you're still not eating meat, huh?

- Oy, the hassle of it all.

- Skin and bones.

- Listen, we don't have much time.

- Time?

- I left Jacob and the rest
of the followers in Jericho

to preach repentance,

I have to go back to Jerusalem.

- Jerusalem?

- We were all just there.

- You didn't hear the news?

- What?

- Herod divorced Phasaelis,
and is marrying Herodias,

his brother's ex-wife.

Someone has to call them out on this filth.

- Good men, will you allow me
a moment with My cousin?

- “O Adonai, my God, in You...

- The root is these three characters:

het, samek, heh.

- “To seek refuge,”

but there's no "heh."

- Oh, it's swallowed up
in the ending characters.

- Oh.

Why does it do that?

- Well, th-the ending
characters are... um...

it's defining the action as, um...

I can't remember the rule.

- No, it's okay.

- No, it's really frustrating; I know this.

- No!

- Um... [clears throat]

“From my pursuers and deliver me,

lest they cut...

a lion--

- “Tear, not cut,”

and notice that the lion

is not receiving the tearing,

he's doing the tearing;

the "caph" is the hint of that.

- Lest, like a lion, they tear...

[chopping sounds]

MATTHEW: It's not going well.

- I couldn't agree more.

- You see it, too?

How frustrated Mary is?

When she needs a pause to compose herself,

she takes a drink of water.

- No, I meant staying behind with you,

while everyone else is out...
chopping wood, or whatever.

- Nathanael said he needs
more posts for the new tent.

- I know.

- They said that we are
better suited handling the food.

- Yes, Matthew, I was there.

This is what I'm talking about.

[chopping]

- Is it because I was a tax collector?

- You were a tax collector?

- You knew that.

- I think you're arrogant.

- [laughs]

I don't think you're right,
I'm very humble.

- You're bragging about your humility!

And, yes, it's because
you were a tax collector.

And why are you watching Ramah so closely?

- I'm not watching her!

- You're collecting Torah verses,

you're donating your tablets.

- They're easy to get!

- Do you like her?

- You can be very illogical

JOHN THE BAPTIST: It is right
there in the Book of Moses:

“If a man takes his brother's wife,

"it is impurity.

"He has uncovered his brother's nakedness;

they shall be childless.”

- I understand it's against
the law of Moses,

but I'm here for bigger purposes

than the breaking of rules.

- You minimize incest?

- Of course not.

- What of the laws of Moses
will be minimized?

- All of this will be addressed;

I'm not ready to get into the specifics.

- You appear to be not ready
to get into the specifics

of a lot of things.

For instance--

- Stay on topic:

The romantic lives of rulers and kings

has been and always will be

of enormous fascination to people.

It was covered at length in Torah.

I don't see why you feel
the need to focus on it now.

- He's a client king,
or tetrarch or whatever,

he's one of us and he's unlawful.

I am not afraid of him.

He might not be as bad as his father,

but he is still bad.

I'm going to march straight into his court

and I'm going to tell him to his face.

My followers will love it.

- You do know how that's
going to end, don't you?

- I get arrested all the time.

It's what radicals do.

I'll be fine.

Herod is afraid of me.

The people hold me to be a prophet.

Some say Elijah himself.

[chuckles]

- Well, maybe not the Elijah,

but we both know of the
Elijah-ness of your role.

- Do we?

Because I'm beginning to wonder

why You're taking this so slow.

Why You're always running away

after performing miracles?

Tell me, why do You always
go off to these desolate places?

- I need solitude.

I'm working on something.

A sermon.

A big one.

- Oh...

you're the planning type.

I always say the first thing
that comes to my mind,

in preaching and in life.

- Yes, I remember, from the time
you started talking.

And I heard about that
"brood of vipers" comment.

That was classy.

[chuckles]

Do you know how the poets
say vipers are born?

- Yes, that they hatch inside their mothers

and eat their way out,

killing their mothers in the process.

I thought it was a pretty good line.

- Yes, but no one wants to be
accused of killing their eema.

- Yeah, well, I'm not here

to make friends with religious leaders,

and judging by that stunt
You pulled on the Sabbath,

neither are You.

Are You really going to
be nice to these people?

- I suppose not.

[heavy sigh]

Just be careful.

- Now is not the time to be careful.

Thirty years You've been here.

- David was a shepherd,
and in the wilderness,

and on the run for 30 years,
before he became king.

- Yes, and then he ruled for 40 years,

he killed a bunch of people,

made horrible mistakes,

and then died in bed with a teenager

he was not married to.

- Maybe not the best analogy, but--

also, she was just there to keep him warm.

Everyone knows--

- I know, I know, and I know You what mean,

but what I'm saying is,
taking all this time,

telling all these stories,

I must confess, I'm eager
for You to get to the point.

- Look...

I'm going to tell stories that
make sense to some people,

but not to others,

and that's just how it's going to be.

[John sighs]

- I get it.

It's not like I'm preaching
stories for children, either.

It's becoming real, isn't it?

Everything we've prepared for?

- It is.

- I mean, it's always been real,

but it's one thing to preach about it,

to hear my abba's prophecy growing up,

and Your eema's song...

but it's heavy when it becomes real, no?

Do You feel ready?

- I'm always ready
to do My Father's will...

but that doesn't make it easy.

- Listen, I was rude to You before,

but it's only because we go back so far,

and I can tease a bit.

But You know that my heart is Yours,

my life is Yours.

The sole reason I was
miraculously conceived

by two old people,

was to pave the way for You.

I'm just impatient for You to get to work.

- I understand.

And I'm grateful for your part.

You have done God's work,

albeit in a, uh... unique way.

[laughs]

- Guilty as charged.

[laughing]

It's perhaps a poor choice of words.

- Perhaps.

[laughing]

[approaching footsteps]

- How is it?

- It's hard work.

How old were you when you learned this?

- I was young.

I think it's easier
when you're a child, but...

I had a better teacher than you.

I'm sorry about before.

- Don't worry about it.

- I just feel, um...

I don't know, I...

I saw a Roman on horseback today

when I was picking persimmons.

- Did he question you?

SHMUEL: We need to update a
report submitted last week

about a man who performed
a miracle on Shabbat,

and then told the healed
person to commit a sin.

And to file an addendum linking this report

to my original petition.

- Wait, slow down.

What changed about your report?

- We have a name.

- The offender is known.

[sighs]

The petition is in regards
to an incident in Capernaum,

in which one Jesus of Nazareth
performed a similar miracle

and declared the authority to forgive sins,

essentially claiming--

- Ah, yes, I know about this case.

It was escalated to Sanhedrin,

and the beginning stages of
a formal inquiry were commenced.

I processed the paperwork.

- That inquiry must be updated

with what happened at the Bethesda Pool.

We have significant evidence
it was the same person.

- That inquiry was closed.

- What?

- It never advanced
beyond opening arguments.

- Why not?

- Those things are confidential.

- But this is a huge development.

The inquiry must be reopened!

- That doesn't happen.

- Why?!

- All I can tell you

is that a very prominent
member of the Sanhedrin

declared it a one-off incident

by a rogue who posed no material threat.

No further questions were asked.

And none will be.

YANNI: Teacher of teachers.

SHMUEL: Wordsmithing.

He said he would not
oppose the petition itself,

but he never said anything
about what he would do

if the case actually reached the Sanhedrin.

- Nicodemus has influence,
but he's not Caiaphas.

Not even close.

- He closed the inquiry

before it even got past opening remarks,

and no one challenged him.

You don't call that power?

- I know some people above his station

who may see things more clearly.

Especially with this
most recent development

of violating Shabbat.

This way.

- Why Jesse?

Why, my brother, out of everyone?

- The man suffered unspeakably
for 38 years.

It's a long time.

And how else could I get your attention?

- My attention?

- Your Order trained you
to be fearless, no?

- No Lord but God, to the death.

- What I did with your brother,

it's not the last of the
trouble I intend to cause.

- You are Messiah, aren't You?

- I have everything I need.

But I wanted you.

- But why?

but not to worry.

wanting you by My side
will have to be enough.

No one buys their way into our group

because of special skills, Simon.

- Yes, Simon.

- After what You did at the Pool
during a High Holy Feast Day,

there may be some who might try to...

stop you.

Even some from my former Order,

especially if they find out
You have a different mission.

- And what are you going to do?

Stop them?

- Well...

I would be more likely to

if You hadn't thrown my
sica dagger in the river.

- Well, if that day comes...
I guess we'll find out.

Ready, Simon?

SHMUEL: An appeal is pointless.

Nicodemus is too powerful.

- It's not an appeal.

- What Sanhedrin member
would take up our fight

against a fellow member?

- Your thinking is too small.

- But what then, go to Caiaphas directly?

- Shmuel, there are two schools
of Mishnaic thought--

- Hillel and Shammai, of course.

But what does that have to do--

- And when there is an issue
presented to the Sanhedrin

that could be interpreted
two ways, the court...

splits.

You're still a rube.

When the court splits
along Mishnaic traditions,

it becomes political.

Former allies become enemies.

- We can turn people against Nicodemus.

- Maybe.

But the right issues--

especially those that appeal to emotion--

can be political gold.

- False prophecy is a moral imperative!

- To you.

And if we can make it emotional as well,

you may find we don't
even have to seek those

who oppose Nicodemus.

Nicodemus himself
may have a change of heart.

- What do we have to do?

- Most Sanhedrin members
follow the teachings of who?

- Shammai.

- Exactly.

- Ah, and he's the most rigid
interpreter of doctrine

the Sanhedrin has known,

this is exactly--

- Now you're learning.

- You can get this to him?

- That's not the hard part,

the hard part is getting him
to make it a priority.

- But if he understands the crime--

- It's got no political weight.

Here's what's important
to Shammai right now:

He's in a dogfight with
Sanhedrin President Shimon--

the son of Hillel, who is...

- The more tolerant teacher,

Shammai's opposite school of thought.

- Shammai has the votes
in the Sanhedrin, yes.

But Shimon has the common people
because he's Hillel's son.

- Shammai wants the people?

- And Shimon wants the votes.

If we could offer Shimon

a way to beat Shammai
at his own rigid game...

- We pit the school of Hillel
against the school of Shammai.

[sighs] Politics.

So, you're writing a letter to Shimon?

- Shimon is too busy to read our letter.

His personal scribe, however,
is an old friend.

He will have the time and Shimon's ear

when the opportunity comes.

- Jesse gave us so little information.

- It's not entirely his fault.

The man vanished after the miracle.

- Well, that's his pattern.

Nicodemus himself was struck
by the same curiosity.

He performs miracles discreetly,
and vanishes.

- What else do you remember from Capernaum?

- A woman on the roof-- an Ethiopian--

who referred to an incident
with a leper outside the city.

I can go back to Capernaum
and look for her.

- Excellent.

If the case is reopened,

it will have the full weight
of the Sanhedrin behind it.

There can't be too many Ethiopian woman

in Galilean backwater towns.

- That's my home.

Cousin!

He said he was going to see his cousin.

- Jesse wasn't clear on that detail.

- But it's something!

We can search the census
records for relations.

The population of Nazareth is so small,

he will be easy to find.

We can identify his father,
mother, and their relatives.

This is a census year.

- The numbers aren't in yet.

How old did he seem?

- 30s, early 40s.

He must've been old enough

to have been counted in that last census.

Don't draw attention.

to recreate the events.
