Joseph and Mary Page #2

Synopsis: JOSEPH AND MARY is a biblical drama that follows Elijah, a devout Rabbi, during a time of unrest when King Herod the Great's slaughter of innocents claims the lives of two boys Elijah had sworn to protect.

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
