00:28Joshua.
00:29how many more in the night some 300 sir where will you bury them men are trying
00:37to get the trench but the ground is hard and rocky with respect Moses my concern
00:43is not for the dead but for the dying hundreds fall by the day and for every
00:48serpent we kill another 10 appear maybe we should leave the bodies here in this
00:53tent at the rate people are dying there would not be enough room even if we
00:57stack them to the top and we'll have to leave and find someplace else not leaving
01:04anytime soon too many people are sick and cannot walk after today the only Hebrews
01:11too sick to walk will be those who choose to remain so is there medicine in that
01:18bronze you told the people that you would ask God to forgive their rebellion to
01:22heal their serpent wounds I did why are you hiding in a tent wasn't my idea Joshua
01:27that is a pagan symbol you did not ask him if you were sure maybe you misunderstood him
01:39I've learned to do what he says without questioning you remember what happened at Maribor
01:47just to be sure we could send a messenger to easy on gate or beg for a heat that pole hand me that pole
01:59help me understand none of this makes any sense how do you explain the red
02:29sea the manna in the coil the pillar of fire Joshua any Israelite who looks upon this bronze serpent and
02:41believes in the power of Adonai will be healed it's an act of faith not reason

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

35:00You're the host.
35:28Bye.
