Short filmTranscript
00:00Joshua, how many more in the night?
00:26Some 300, son.
00:30Where will you bury them?
00:32Men are trying to get a trench, but the ground is hard and rocky.
00:36With respect, Moses, my concern is not for the dead, but for the dying.
00:41Hundreds fall by the day, and for every serpent we kill, another tent appears.
00:46Maybe we should leave the bodies here, in this tent.
00:49At the rate people are dying, there would not be enough room, even if we stacked them to the top.
00:54Then we'll have to leave and find some place else.
00:57I'm not leaving anytime soon.
01:00Too many people are sick and cannot walk.
01:03After today, the only Hebrews too sick to walk will be those who choose to remain so.
01:12Is there medicine in that bronze?
01:14You told the people that you would ask God to forgive their rebellion, to heal their serpent wounds.
01:19I did.
01:19Wait, why are you hiding in a tent?
01:20It wasn't my idea, Joshua.
01:26That is a pagan symbol.
01:29You did not ask him if you were sure?
01:32Maybe you misunderstood him.
01:34I've learned to do what he says, without questioning.
01:40You remember what happened at Maribor.
01:46Just to be sure.
01:48We could send a messenger to Ezeon Gabor, beg for a heat.
01:51That pole.
01:53Hand me that pole.
01:54The people will say it is a cruel joke.
02:16Let them say that.
02:19Help me understand.
02:22None of this makes any sense.
02:23How do you explain the Red Sea?
02:26The manna and the coil?
02:28The pillar of fire.
02:32Joshua.
02:33Any Israelite who looks upon this bronze serpent and believes in the power of Adonai will be healed.
02:39It's an act of faith.
02:42Not reason.
02:46Faith.
02:53Oh, child.
03:11Oh, child, come on in.
03:13Jump in the water.
03:16Not more trouble, hit the mess you'd be.
03:19Walk on the water.
03:22Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
03:25Walk on the water.
03:28Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
03:31Walk on the water.
03:33Oh, child, walk on the water.
03:39Got more trouble.
03:41Walk on the water.
03:43Walk on the water.
03:45Walk on the water.
03:49Walk on the water.
04:09Walk on the water.
04:11Walk on the water.
04:13Walk on the water.
04:15Walk on the water.
04:17Walk on the water.
04:19Walk on the water.
04:21Walk on the water.
04:23Walk on the water.
04:25Walk on the water.
04:27Walk on the water.
04:29Walk on the water.
04:31Walk on the water.
04:33Yes, why are you here?
04:59I'm escorting you.
05:01Because you feel indebted for your promotion.
05:02You're complaining about safely walking the streets?
05:05I didn't help Quintus for you.
05:06Oh, I know.
05:08You couldn't help yourself.
05:10I spoke up because I was right.
05:13You got lucky.
05:15Luck doesn't exist.
05:16So you knew Quintus would not kill you?
05:19He was smart to go after the fishermen.
05:22But he must have been desperate to enlist Simon.
05:25I don't buy it.
05:25You were terrified.
05:27Guys, what if you were suddenly the only Roman in Capernaum?
05:30I think I'd change clothes.
05:35Exactly.
05:36When you realize that nobody else in the world cares what happens to you, you think only about yourself.
05:43For a fool, your brain has taken you far.
05:46I admit it.
05:47I thought so, too.
06:05Praise Adonai.
06:06He is healthy and alive.
06:07What are you talking about?
06:10I received word from Jerusalem.
06:11Havela gave birth to a son.
06:13You are grandfather again.
06:15So soon?
06:15A month early, but all is well.
06:17Oh, blessed be he.
06:19We'll have the rest of our things sent.
06:22No, no, no.
06:23My research here is not completed.
06:25But we have to make it back in time for the bris.
06:28We have only eight days.
06:30Less than a day.
06:31Circumcision can be performed by any number of peoples of horror.
06:34Nico, it's your own grandson.
06:36The grandson.
06:38Havela will understand.
06:39Do you know what people will say when they learn that the great Nicodemus missed his own grandson's name day
06:44because he was doing research in Capernaum of all places?
06:46Research that concerns not just one Jewish boy, but all of Israel, past, present, and future.
06:52There is nothing in Capernaum but demoniacs and insolent schoolboys.
06:57Come to your senses.
06:59I have never been closer to my senses.
07:04That is not how it looks from the outside.
07:07Many things are not.
07:10I am ready to leave this place, Nico.
07:13I miss my children and my grandchildren, including the one I haven't even met yet.
07:17Oh, so horribly.
07:19You can't just barge.
07:20Oh, I believe I can.
07:22Printerquintus.
07:25So horror, is it?
07:26Pleasure to see you again.
07:30I trust all is well.
07:32Why would you trust that?
07:36Now, Miss, please, do make yourself at home.
07:40We really will have to discuss the people's tidings.
07:46This is why you have come.
07:49I need to know if we have a problem, Nicodemus.
07:52I have complied with every request Rome has made to my office, even when it infringed on custom.
07:59Let me rephrase.
08:01You and I want the same thing.
08:03We want rules followed.
08:06We want order.
08:08Soldiers, money, votes.
08:10That's my world.
08:12Demons, prayers, oddballs.
08:15That's yours.
08:16I need to know if our worlds are on a collision course.
08:19The so-called miracle worker.
08:24Jesus of Nazareth.
08:32Don't even know what Nazareth is, but yes, him.
08:36Anecdotes and rumors.
08:40And a stampede in the eastern ghetto that delayed Herod's envoy.
08:44That really made me look bad.
08:46I hate that.
08:49The unrest began when your soldiers waded into the crowd brandishing weapons.
08:54It isn't an isolated event.
08:56I've heard reports.
08:57My source has an unwavering knack for accuracy and a compulsion for the truth.
09:01So again, I ask you.
09:04Is there a problem?
09:05Is there a problem?
09:08No.
09:11You don't seem sure.
09:14Maybe I could get better information from this Shmuel.
09:18He's very eager to see me.
09:22The only way to learn this preacher's intentions is to speak with him directly.
09:29So speak to him.
09:35I hate crowds.
09:38They take time and resources, and then cleanup is a pain.
09:42When you arrange a private meeting, I want to know when and where.
09:48Understand?
09:51What troubles you about this man?
09:55Preachers have a habit of becoming politicians.
09:58They sprout up like weeds and spread.
10:02You know, a wife is a gardener.
10:03She understands.
10:05Some flora spread their seeds when trampled.
10:11Who's to say you wouldn't be creating a martyr?
10:18I'll take my chances.
10:20You sympathize with this preacher.
10:31You sympathize with this preacher.
10:31Will you be safe here?
10:53What do you mean, safe?
10:58They'll be looking for us because of what you said about forgiving sins.
11:01Ah, we won't be here very long.
11:04After what happened yesterday, we'll keep moving from town to town.
11:10Is that what you want?
11:10What do you mean?
11:15To roam about, not able to stay in one place?
11:21I want to do the will of my father.
11:23And I want to spread the message of salvation.
11:28So yes, I am happy to not stay in one place.
11:34Rabbi?
11:35Yes, Dad?
11:36I should prepare firewood for how many days?
11:40Uh, five, I think.
11:42I thought you said that we wouldn't be here very long.
11:47Leaving some for the next weary traveler.
11:50Hospitality isn't only for people who own homes, John.
11:58Mary?
11:59Are you all right?
12:01May I?
12:02Yes, thank you.
12:03Uh, may I speak with you, Rabbi?
12:05Yes, of course.
12:07Keep going.
12:12I wanted to apologize for yesterday.
12:14For what?
12:16I was trying to help those people get closer to the sound of your voice.
12:20I had no idea they would open the roof and disrupt your teaching.
12:23I'm truly...
12:24So you regret that a paralytic is enjoying his first full day on his own feet, huh?
12:30No.
12:30Just that I caused the scene and cut short your teaching.
12:35Who's to say it was cut short?
12:37With their faith, they would have found a way whether you brought them to the roof or not.
12:41Oh, there's more.
12:43When we were leaving, a Pharisee stopped me and asked for a private meeting with you.
12:47I told him I would ask.
12:49A Pharisee?
12:51Do you know this man?
12:53He visited me before.
12:55A Pharisee in the Red Quarter?
12:59Rome sent him.
13:00I doubt he wanted to be there.
13:03No, I wouldn't think so.
13:04Well, I saw him again after I was better and he wanted to know how I was healed.
13:10Of course, I didn't tell him who you were, but he seemed...
13:16What?
13:18Arnest.
13:18He wasn't offended to learn that someone else had succeeded where he had failed.
13:24But there was a hunger in his eyes, not fear.
13:29Not like the Pharisees at the window yesterday, huh?
13:31I am sorry to have brought all this on you.
13:35No, no.
13:37No, there was a reason you made this Pharisee.
13:40Nicodemus.
13:42Nicodemus, of course.
13:43I've heard of him.
13:46Oh, I don't know who is not and who is not.
13:49This is all me to know.
13:50Don't worry about which men others think are important.
13:54Send word to Nicodemus.
13:56I will meet with him.
13:58Little James will know the location.
14:00Thank you, Mary.
14:01Yes, teacher.
14:03Where are you going?
14:04To be alone, I need to think and to pray.
14:12I will pray also.
14:14But I did not put you in terrible danger.
14:17You have not.
14:19In fact, I have made plans already tomorrow night.
14:24Plans?
14:25Yes, spread the word.
14:26A dinner party in the northern district.
14:28A tall house just past the arch.
14:31The dead row of homes.
14:32I know the kind of people who live there.
14:34Trust me.
14:36What about the others?
14:56Matthew.
14:58Hello, Ima.
14:59Or Elisheva, I mean.
15:03Hello.
15:04Matthew.
15:14I don't receive visitors myself.
15:17Is this a custom?
15:18If your father were here, I couldn't do this.
15:21Where is Elisheus?
15:22I think a dog followed you.
15:26He's with me.
15:27He'll stay out here if you let me in.
15:29I'll stay.
15:30I'll stay.
15:32I'll stay.
15:33Ralphie is to be home soon.
15:50He is away.
15:52I know work to...
15:53Where would work take him?
15:55Does he no longer make leather goods?
15:57His shop was robbed.
15:59Many of the shops have been.
16:01Crime is rampant.
16:02Makes it very difficult to reopen.
16:05He loved his shop.
16:08But we still have a roof over our heads,
16:10which is more than some people can say.
16:12You can ask me for money if you ever need it.
16:14How can you say that?
16:15It's quite common.
16:17I've seen many parents entirely dependent on...
16:19Your father would sooner die than take your blood money.
16:23I know you are ashamed of me,
16:25but your decision is irrational.
16:28Rome will continue to collect taxes no matter what.
16:30I'm skilled with numbers.
16:31Did you come here to justify yourself?
16:33Oh, no!
16:39Everything's like sand.
16:42They flood.
16:44The things I thought I knew to be true.
16:46Are you in trouble?
16:47Do you think that impossible things can happen?
16:50That overturn the laws of nature?
16:53That cannot be explained?
16:54That is what people asked when you were a boy.
17:02Even the rabbis were astonished at your talent for reading, math,
17:08the way you could think faster than any other child.
17:11They thought you would be someone great.
17:13Great at what?
17:15I'm rich.
17:15I have an armed escort.
17:17I'm trusted by the Praetor of Galilee.
17:19We never dreamed you would use the talent God gave you to bleed your people drag.
17:23But have you ever seen anything miraculous?
17:24Matthew.
17:24My whole world.
17:27Everything I thought I knew.
17:32What if it's wrong?
17:37I think you should go.
17:38You never even asked about your sister.
17:58She looks well.
18:00I came to celebrate Shabbat a few weeks ago.
18:04Then I left.
18:05I left.
18:08Goodbye, Dima.
18:31I'm not sure this is a good idea.
18:33Why not?
18:35Could be a trap.
18:37Nicodemus.
18:38Corporates with Rome.
18:40They're the ones who sent him to marry when she was possessed in the Red Quarter.
18:42I am well acquainted with Risk, Simon.
18:45So are you, if I remember our first meeting correctly.
18:49Risk is his oldest friend, I'm afraid.
18:53Simon.
18:55Mary is an excellent judge of character.
18:58She has known some of the worst kinds of men in this world.
19:01And she finds him earnest.
19:03You should trust her instincts.
19:05And mine.
19:06Rabbi, I've got it.
19:13Ah, let's take a look.
19:20Can you keep her quiet, please?
19:22No one needs knowing my sick.
19:23Look, I can't tell her not to cough, Simon.
19:26I just don't want our burdens to become his, okay?
19:29I don't want to be the one to distract him.
19:32He's made up his mind about you.
19:35He's not going to kick you out of the group.
19:37It's perfect.
19:39Well done.
19:41Well, I think I can fit all of you in here with me, huh?
19:46You won't be recognized in that.
19:49Has the owner of the house given permission?
19:50It's all arranged, Rabbi.
19:52And I'll be waiting at the door.
19:54Thank you, Andrew.
19:55You go on ahead, but remember to relax.
19:57You are there to guide our guests, not to be my protector.
20:03Are you sure you don't want me to come?
20:06The more eyes watching the streets for trouble, the better.
20:09Not tonight, Simon.
20:11Stay here with your wife and your mother-in-law.
20:13You see me?
20:34Welcome, Nicodemus.
20:38Don't be alarmed.
20:40He's waiting for you.
20:43I asked the owner of this house for more lanterns.
21:05But he said they would draw attention.
21:08Yes, I imagine they would.
21:11The human eye is drawn to light.
21:14We can't help it.
21:15It just happens.
21:17There are many things we are drawn to without our thinking
21:20or our ability to explain why.
21:27Thank you for agreeing to meet.
21:30Thank you for trying to help Mary when you did.
21:32It was no help.
21:34You were meant to be there.
21:36Me?
21:36So I could fail miserably at an exorcism in the Red Quarter?
21:43If you had not been there that day,
21:46would you be on this roof tonight?
21:51I don't know where to start.
21:53I have so many questions.
21:54Shall we sit first?
21:55Oh, yes.
21:57Yes, of course.
22:10The eastern slums.
22:12Hmm.
22:12Many wandering preachers have succeeded in gathering crowds
22:16with their rhetoric and fiery tone.
22:20I've heard a few of them over the years myself.
22:23So you know the type.
22:24Hmm.
22:24But I have never heard anyone tell a paralytic to get up and walk,
22:30much less it actually happened.
22:34So what is your conclusion?
22:36I believe you are not acting alone.
22:45No one can do these signs you do without having God in him.
22:52Only someone who has come from God.
22:56And how is that belief going over in the synagogue?
22:59Which is why we are here at this hour.
23:09What else?
23:12What have you come here to show us?
23:15A kingdom.
23:18That is what our rulers are worried about.
23:22No, not that kind.
23:24Then what?
23:25A sort of kingdom that a person cannot see.
23:29Unless he is born again.
23:31Born again?
23:33Yes.
23:35You mean a new creature?
23:39A conversion from Gentile to Jewish?
23:41No.
23:42No, that's not what I'm talking about.
23:43Then what is born again?
23:46I hope you don't mean return to the womb,
23:49because that would be a problem for me.
23:51My mother, may she rest in peace, is dead.
23:56Truly, I say to you,
23:57unless one is born of water and the spirit,
24:02he cannot enter the kingdom of God.
24:06That which is born of the flesh is flesh.
24:11And that which is born of the spirit is spirit.
24:14That part of you, that,
24:16is what must be reborn to new life.
24:18How can these things be?
24:26Ah, a teacher of Israel,
24:29and yet you do not understand these things.
24:31I'm trying, Rabbi.
24:33I know.
24:34I know.
24:39Do you hear this?
24:41What?
24:41Listen.
24:46What do you hear?
24:48The wind.
24:50How do you know it's the wind?
24:52Because I can feel it.
24:54I hear its sound.
24:56Do you know where it comes from?
24:58No.
24:58Do you know where it's going?
25:00No.
25:01That's what it is,
25:02to be born again of the spirit.
25:05The spirit may work in a way
25:06that is a mystery to you.
25:09And while you cannot see the spirit,
25:11you can recognize his effect.
25:13The mind is consumed with thoughts
25:18of what a stir these words would cause
25:21among the teachers of the law.
25:23Yes.
25:24And I do not expect otherwise.
25:27I speak of what I know and have seen,
25:30and it has not been received by the religious leaders.
25:32It is hard to receive.
25:34So if I have told you of earthly things,
25:37and you do not believe,
25:39how can I tell you heavenly things?
25:42I believe your words.
25:44I just fear you may not have a chance
25:47to speak many more of them
25:48before you are silenced.
25:50I have come to do more than speak words, Nicodemus.
25:54More miracles.
25:55Yes.
25:57But even more than that,
25:59do you remember when the children of Israel
26:01complained against God and against Moses
26:04in the wilderness of Paran?
26:06Yes.
26:07They wanted to return to Egypt,
26:08and they cursed the manna that God sent them.
26:11And then?
26:12They were bitten by serpents,
26:14and they were dying.
26:16But?
26:17But God made a way for them to be healed.
26:21Moses lifted the bronze serpent in the desert,
26:25and people only needed to look at it.
26:27So will the Son of Man be lifted up,
26:32so that whoever believes in him
26:34may have eternal life.
26:36Our people are not dying from snakebites.
26:39They're dying from taxation and oppression.
26:41I'm sorry to disappoint you,
26:43but I did not come to deliver the people from Rome.
26:46Then from what?
26:47From sin.
26:48From sin.
26:49From spiritual death.
26:55God loves the world in this way.
26:59That he gave his only Son,
27:02that whoever believes in him
27:03shall not perish,
27:05but have eternal life.
27:07So this has nothing to do with Rome.
27:11It's all about sin.
27:15God did not send his Son into the world
27:17to condemn it, Nicodemus.
27:18He sent him to save it through him.
27:22It's as simple as Moses' serpent on the pole.
27:25Whoever believes in him
27:28will not be condemned,
27:31but whoever does not believe
27:32stands condemned already.
27:35Have you ever heard anything like this before?
27:36Shh.
27:38When I met Lillard,
27:41Mary, that day,
27:43I told my wife and my students
27:47that she was beyond human aid.
27:51Only God could have healed her.
27:55and then I saw her
27:57healed.
28:03And here you are.
28:09The healer.
28:13I, my whole life,
28:15I have wondered if I would see this day.
28:25Follow me.
28:27And you'll see more.
28:30Oh, you...
28:31Join me and my students.
28:34In two days' time,
28:35we leave Capernaum.
28:37Come see the kingdom
28:38I am bringing into this world.
28:41But I...
28:42I...
28:42I can't...
28:43You have a position in the Sanhedrin.
28:46You have family.
28:47You are getting advanced in years.
28:50Really?
28:54I understand.
28:57But the invitation is still open.
29:00The invitation to what exactly?
29:03To lead a nomadic life?
29:05To...
29:05To give up
29:07who I am?
29:09It's true.
29:10There is a lot you would give up.
29:14But what you would gain
29:16is far greater
29:19and more lasting.
29:21Is this another one of your
29:23born-again mysteries?
29:28Maybe.
29:29Maybe.
29:31I know mysteries aren't easy for a scholar.
29:33Think about it.
29:40Take your time.
29:43On the morning of the fifth day,
29:44we leave
29:45and we'll meet by the well
29:47in the southern quarter
29:48at dawn.
29:53Is...
29:53Is this...
29:56Is the kingdom of God
29:59really coming?
30:03What does your heart tell you?
30:07My heart is swollen
30:09with fear
30:10and...
30:11Unwonderful.
30:13It can tell me nothing
30:15except that I am standing
30:17on holy ground.
30:25Holy...
30:26Holy roof.
30:29I do hope you come with us,
30:36Nicodemus.
30:42You don't have to do that.
30:46What are you doing?
30:49Kiss the sun.
30:51Must he be angry
30:52and you perish in the way?
30:53I...
30:54I...
30:55Blessed are all
31:02who take refuge in him.
31:12I...
31:12I...
31:12I...
31:13I...
31:13I...
31:13I...
31:14I...
31:15I...
31:16I...
31:17I...
31:18I...
31:19I...
31:20I...
31:21I...
31:22I...
31:23I...
31:24You see the Parthian foot races
31:29last night?
31:30Darius ran like a gazelle.
31:32Jews don't go to foot races.
31:34Your old friend Simon himself
31:36used to run the wagering tables.
31:37We're not friends.
31:39Next.
31:40Okay.
31:41Fine.
31:42So you did not go to the races?
31:44You stay home?
31:46I went to see my mother.
31:48Ugh.
31:48That would put me out, too.
31:51She asked when you're going
31:52to give her grandchildren?
31:53She didn't ask.
31:55I thought your parents
31:56don't speak to you.
31:57I had questions
31:57I couldn't ask anyone else.
32:01A mother of a son
32:02with talent like yours
32:03should be proud.
32:04She's ashamed
32:05that I could use the talent
32:06that God gave me
32:06against God.
32:08Next.
32:09You're good at something.
32:10You found a way
32:10to make a living doing it.
32:12It's that simple.
32:13Must be nice to live
32:17in a world
32:17so simply ordered.
32:18We live in the same world, Matthew.
32:20Next.
32:21Besides,
32:21what else are you going to do
32:22with a mind like yours?
32:23Matthew.
32:48Matthew, son of Alphaeus.
32:50Yes?
32:58Follow me.
33:02Me?
33:04Yes.
33:05You.
33:07Whoa, whoa, whoa.
33:09What are you doing?
33:11You want me to join you?
33:12Keep moving, street preacher.
33:14Do you have any idea
33:15what this guy's done?
33:18Do you even know him?
33:19Yes.
33:30Listen.
33:31I said to...
33:31What are you doing?
33:38Where do you think you're going?
33:39Guys,
33:40let me go.
33:46Have you lost your mind?
33:47You have money.
33:49Quintus protects you.
33:51No Jew lives as good as you.
33:54You're going to throw it all away.
33:58Yes.
33:58I don't get it.
34:12You didn't get it when I chose you either.
34:15Look, this is different.
34:16I'm not a tax collector.
34:18Get used to different.
34:19I'm glad we passed by your booth today, Matthew.
34:28Yes.
34:32Shall we?
34:34We have a celebration to prepare for.
34:37You will regret this, Matthew.
34:40What's the tablet for?
34:42I grabbed it without thinking.
34:43Can you put it back?
34:44No.
34:45No, keep it.
34:46You may yet find useful it.
34:49Where are we going?
34:50At dinner party.
34:52I'm not welcome at dinner parties.
34:53Well, that's not going to be a problem tonight.
34:56You're the host.
