In the name of Jesus Christ!
Jesus!
Jesus! Jesus!
A dream?
Yes.
I was dreaming
of your mother's bread...
still warm from the oven.
Keep dreaming
if you want to eat today.
Nothing to eat
and sleeping on stones.
I'm getting too old forthis.
We must find work.
Let me be the first
to welcome you, Governor Pilate.
You appear to be
the only one to welcome me.
Please make note of that,
Governor.
I am the only one
to welcome you.
A conqueror doesn't expect
a warm welcome.
These people don't accept that
they've been conquered.
Well, they will.
Judea is the most troublesome
province in the empire.
So I've been told.
And who are you?
I am Livio, Roman citizen.
And why are you here?
Well, a kind man would say
I am Caesar's historian.
that I am Caesar's...
spy.
( laughs )
- Good morning, Mary.
- It's a beautiful morning.
Have Joseph
and your son returned?
No.
I'm sure they must have
found carpentry work in Jerusalem.
God willing.
God willing.
Pontius Pilate!
I, Herod Antipas,
Tetrarch of Galilee, welcome you.
( applauding )
I accept your welcome,
Herod Antipas.
And Caesar sends
his blessings on your land,
and his kingdom.
May I present my wife,
Herodias,
my stepdaughter, Salome,
and your fellow
Roman citizen, Livio.
We've met.
Please, come sit beside me.
I must say,
this city surprises me.
In what way, Governor?
The structures,
they are most impressive.
Built by my father,
Herod the Great,
beloved of his people.
They hated him.
A vicious man, I'm told.
How distasteful of you
to speak of my father this way.
As his son,
I am a hero to the people.
The butt of all of their jokes.
You misunderstand.
In Rome, we call yourfather's
way of ruling, "statesmanship."
Perhaps Pontius Pilate
would like to see
the grandest of all structures
in lsrael, the Temple,
built by my father,
a personal friend of Augustus,
as I am a personal
friend of Tiberius.
How strange.
I've never
heard him mention you.
I thank you
for your welcome.
And I will visit the Temple,
as you suggest.
Make sure you take your troops!
And show their insignia proudly!
Livio,
whatdoes he mean,
"show their insignia"?
Well, I could tell you,
but it would spoil all the fun.
The High Priest of the Temple
is Caiaphas, appointed by Rome,
which puts him in
a very interesting position
on the one hand he has to appear
to be on the side of his own people,
but on the other hand
he owes his position to Rome...
a very narrow path to tread.
Welcome, Pontius Pilate.
I am Caiaphas,
High Priest of this Temple.
We come to wish you well,
as you undertake the post
of Governor of Judea.
I thank you, priest.
Allow me
to get right to the point.
Rome is displeased
with the number of legions
it has to keep in this barren land
Your taxes don't begin
to pay back the costs.
You speak of the past.
from your corrupt religion,
which erupts directly
from this Temple.
That ends today.
My soldiers will be posted here
from now on.
This order defiles the Temple!
Our religion forbids graven images
in the Temple!
Your soldiers are an abomination
to the Temple.
Even their flags break our laws.
and your banners carrying
the carvings of Caesar,
these shields are symbols
of Roman dominion!
No building in Judea,
not even the Temple,
is exempt from the display
of these symbols.
What your religion forbids,
