Risen Page #3

And find out where they heard it.

Yes, Tribune.

And comb the city for bodies,

dead in the last week.

Examine for each marks of crucified.

Dig them up?

Everyone!

And bring Him to me personally.

Tribune, I said in private.

Where's your fellow?

He doesn't wish to speak.

Truly?

He had problems about the Nazarene's theft.

He is afraid, as am I.

You should be.

You disgrace me.

Sleeping on firsts-pen is death.

But the Prefect has spared you.

Both can return to the barracks.

Unpunished?

If you bear us honestly of what happened.

I was attacked in the night

while I was sleeping

by the Nazarene rabid disciples.

They stole his body.

And now they're he had risen.

Rabid? How many Attache?

8, 10...I don't know for sure.

All armed?

Yes.

You saw all this while sleeping?

No, I...we...

We woke as they were cutting the rope.

Cutting the rope?

Yes.

Then they rolled over the stone.

Took his body and ran.

While you watched?

Yes, but we were held at spear point.

Soldier?

Have you been told to say these things? Hmm?

You were drinking that night.

No.

No? No.

What else is a lie?

Open the doors!

Stolen? So they claim.

Well...so what?

They are really in fear,

he rose from death.

Hmm, uh...perhaps a Messiah.

Anyways, I ahh...

Arrest him!

Turn him!

How old is this one?

At least a week.

These? The thieves he died with.

Put down.

In two days they will be unrecognizable.

Wait till you see combat.

No.

The hand's missing.

See the hole in the other?

Not him.

Legs are broken.

That's why we need your eyes, Tribune.

This grave here is very hasty and shallow.

Well? We've questioned 11,

you should examine.

One I suspect could be a disciple.

Excuse me, Tribune.

Take some chicory.

Each time, your stomach runs to these things.

Bring them in, one by one.

Sir.

Who took the body?

I don't know.

They are saying, you are an honest man.

And a follower of Yeshua.

Truth will not be fatal today.

I was moved by what,

He said and what He taught.

I felt He didn't deserve such a death.

They ripped up a tomb to steal a corpse...

and promote a lie that threatens

Rome and the Sanhedrin.

It was not Yeshua's followers.

Not the true ones.

They were heart broken.

So you are saying, he has risen?

To lead Israel against us.

The Messiah.

Do you believe that?

If he had lived,

I think Yeshua would

embrace you as a brother.

Even if you eschew him.

Leave us.

I wish I had the means.

But I'm forced to break you.

One thing has been withheld from you, Tribune.

I confess, you asked if he was the king?

I'll return his crown.

Sit.

Why do you tremble?

You are a Roman.

You were heard shouting,

'Yeshua yet lives!'
