00:30John, would you begin the Dayenu for us?
00:37Yes. Of course, Rabbi.
00:45If he had brought us out from Egypt and not carried out judgments against them...
00:52It wasn't enough.
00:53If he had carried out judgments against them and not destroyed their idols...
00:59It would have been enough.
01:01If he had destroyed their idols and not killed their firstborn...
01:06It would have been enough.
01:08If he had killed their firstborn and had not given us their wealth...
01:12It would have been enough.
01:14If he had given us their wealth and not split the sea for us...
01:18It would have been enough.
01:20If he had split the sea for us and not taken us through it on dry land...
01:26It would have been enough.
01:28If he had taken us through it on dry land and not drowned our enemies in it...
01:34It would have been enough.
01:36If he had drowned our enemies in it...
01:39And had not supplied our needs in the desert for forty years...
01:43It would have been enough.
01:45If he had supplied us in the desert for forty years...
01:50And not fed us the manna...
01:52It would have been enough.
01:54If he had fed us the manna and had not given us the Shabbat...
01:58It would have been enough.
02:00If he had given us the Shabbat and not brought us before Mount Sinai...
02:05It would have been enough.
02:07If he had brought us before Mount Sinai...
02:11And not given us the Torah...
02:13It would have been enough.
02:15If he had given us the Torah but not brought us to the land of Israel...
02:19It would have been enough.
02:22And if he had brought us to the land of Israel...
02:25And not built for us the holy temple...
02:28It would have been enough.
02:30Amen.
02:33And now, the bitter herbs.
02:38Wait.
02:42I have something to add.
02:48If he had built for us the holy temple
02:52and not sent the Messiah in our lifetimes,
02:55it would have been enough.
03:01We would have waited.
03:06But you chose us.
03:09You chose now.
03:12And it is enough.
03:26James, why are you crying?
03:31If you don't know by now...
03:38Thank you, big James.
03:40Please, big James.
03:49Peter is right.
03:51We move on to the bitter herbs.
03:53A reminder of the bitterness of slavery.
03:57Salt water.
03:59A reminder of the tears of our people.
04:01Blessed are you, Lord our God, King of the universe,
04:05who has sanctified us in his commandments.
04:08Eat bitter herbs.
04:18Lord, who is it?
04:21Is it Thomas?
04:22Is it Thomas?
04:23Is it Thomas?
04:27Please stay with my phone.
04:29I'll try to get this.
04:31Oh, the...
04:33Yeah.
04:35Come on.
04:37Some of this is...
04:39Some of this is...
04:41I...
04:43I...
04:45I...
04:47Perhaps...
04:49Oh, I can't get that.
04:50I can't get that.
04:55I've been looking forward to this.
04:57I feel...
04:59You have to try some of these.
05:02Do you...
05:04As...
05:06Spill them.
05:07Thank you, James.
05:09Oh, thank you.
05:11We do not have to stay anymore.
05:18Judas...
05:20Yes, you know.
05:32Who?
05:37I'm not God.
05:38It doesn't have to be this way.
05:57But you can still stop things from ending badly.
06:05What you are going to do?
06:08Do it quickly.
06:38No, I'm not going to do this.
06:49Philip, where did Judas go?
06:56Parts of a tradition, give arms to the poor.
07:00I used to keep her up the purse.
07:04But in the middle of dinner...
07:07Maybe he forgot.
07:09Maybe to get more food, too.
07:10It'll run out quick.
07:11Probably because you're eating too fast.
07:14I'm starving.
07:16Honestly, it's ironic to call Passover a feast.
07:20My friends...
07:22I am with you just a little while longer.
07:29And where I am going...
07:31You cannot come.
07:35And so...
07:38A new commandment I give to you.
07:44That you love one another.
07:46Just as I have loved you...
07:52You also...
07:53Are to love one another.
07:57By this...
07:58All people will know that you are my disciples...
08:02If you have love for one another.
08:04The commandment to love isn't new.
08:15The commandment to love one another...
08:18In the truly sacrificial way...
08:20That I'm showing you...
08:24It will transform you.
08:27And others.
08:30Lord, where...
08:32Where exactly are you going?
08:34Where exactly are you going?
09:02I've got no trouble with a mess you've been...
09:04I'm walk underwater.
09:10I'm walk underwater.
09:16I'm walk underwater.
09:22I'm walk underwater.
09:25I'm got no trouble.
09:28I'm walk underwater.
09:30I'm walk underwater.
09:33I'm walk underwater.
09:35I'm walk underwater.
09:36I'm walk underwater.
09:37I'm walk underwater.
09:38I'm walk underwater.
09:39I'm walk underwater.
09:40I'm walk underwater.
09:41I'm walk underwater.
09:42I'm walk underwater.
09:43I'm walk underwater.
09:44I'm walk underwater.
09:45I'm walk underwater.
09:46I'm walk underwater.
09:47I'm walk underwater.
09:48I'm walk underwater.
09:49I'm walk underwater.
09:50I'm walk underwater.
09:51I'm walk underwater.
09:52I'm walk underwater.
09:53I'm walk underwater.
09:54I'm walk underwater.
09:55I'm walk underwater.
09:56I'm walk underwater.
09:57I'm walk underwater.
09:58I'm walk underwater.
09:59First the market, and now an endorsement of Rome's taxation.
10:03You will not recover from this.
10:05Be assured, you will see justice for your lambs and your livelihood.
10:09Look, what is it?
10:30They were so obviously trying to get him to say the wrong thing.
10:34But he's not capable of saying the wrong thing.
10:36Not in their eyes.
10:39And not in the eyes of those expecting a different kind of messiah.
10:45They want someone who will destroy Caesar.
10:49Not tell us to give him money.
10:51What is going to happen?
11:05Excuse me, could you tell me what I can find tonight?
11:09You, it's Shmuel, right?
11:19From Capernaum?
11:21You were in Bethany at the house of Lazarus three days ago with your friend Yusuf.
11:26Friend?
11:27Colleague, from our time in Capernaum, you and another came to question Jesus?
11:34You mean the defiled home where the woman debased herself and the rest of us?
11:38You can think whatever you want about her.
11:39Just tell me where I can find Yusuf.
11:41You think he can help your cause?
11:42This woman is from the Red Quarter in Capernaum, possessed by seven demons.
11:49I'm from Magdala by the sea, possessed by the creator of the universe.
11:54And what do you practice now?
12:00Allegiance to a man who just preached his own death sentence to a crowd of a thousand witnesses?
12:05Death sentence?
12:05He has given us no choice.
12:08He will be silenced, shamed, and censured.
12:11And would people here who stood by his heresies?
12:13You'd be better off in a leper colony.
12:15A leper colony he would heal and redeem.
12:18The truth is there is nowhere you can send us where Jesus is not Lord.
12:22I think what he said means something terrible for you.
12:26And I think you know it.
12:27They may not, but you do.
12:29And it drives me mad.
12:31What is going on here?
12:34Were you in the crowd for all that?
12:36I...
12:37Of course you were.
12:38You're enamored with him.
12:39The whole Sanhedrin knows by now.
12:41Yusuf, I need to speak with you.
12:42Of course.
12:43By all means, Yusuf, be seen with the woman from the Red Quarter.
12:46Have you no decency at all?
12:47You saw what that woman in Bethany did with the ointment?
12:50And her hair in his feet?
12:51And you said nothing?
12:53And now you have the gall to accuse me of indecency?
12:55We have to get word of what happened to the high priest.
13:03Ignore them.
13:04Are you all right?
13:05It just confirmed my worst fears.
13:07Mary, things are getting out of control.
13:08That's why I need your help.
13:11They're trying to kill Jesus, Yusuf.
13:13Nothing is official yet.
13:14Muel just told me he preached his own death sentence.
13:18Yusuf!
13:19Yusuf, they're calling an emergency meeting first thing in the morning.
13:22We must go back to Shimon's office and make a plan.
13:27We need you now, Yusuf.
13:29Come!
13:30I'm sorry, Mary.
13:31This is urgent.
13:32No, wait.
13:32Just a brief moment.
13:33Peter!
13:46Did he say anything more?
13:50Shalom to you too, Judas.
13:51He needs to explain his speech.
13:53He's never going to unify the people if he sounds like he's validating Rome's authority.
13:56I didn't hear any validation.
13:57He legitimized their taxation by saying it's funding roads and protection.
14:02What is your point?
14:04They are the foreign invaders.
14:06Yeah, the latest in a succession of many.
14:08The Babylonians, the Persians, the Macedonians.
14:11He's the Messiah.
14:12He's supposed to give us Israel back.
14:13How would you have preferred to answer the question?
14:15By announcing the tax.
14:17Calling Caesar's claim to be the son of God blasphemous.
14:19declaring that the income that God has given us should not go to the oppressors of our land that God has given us
14:25and reminding us that he is here to dethrone Caesar, becoming the king of Israel.
14:30For starters.
14:31Then what would have happened?
14:33He walked on water, Peter.
14:34You don't have to remind me.
14:35Are you sure?
14:35I was with you for weeks as we experienced his power for ourselves, but it seems you've forgotten.
14:43We watched as he brought Lazarus out of the tomb.
14:46Loafs and fish appeared in the hands of the hungry.
14:51You're telling me that he couldn't snap his fingers and make swords appear in the hands of every person in that temple?
14:56Of course he could, but he didn't.
14:59You understand?
15:00They set him a rhetorical trap, and he evaded it like David from the tip of Saul's spear.
15:03Those men went straight to Caiaphas and Herod.
15:06Maybe even Pilate.
15:07Pilate would be delighted with a bit about the taxes.
15:10Well, as long as they don't mention that Rome is just living in God's world,
15:14inscribing empty phrases on their coins.
15:16You're a walking contradiction, Judas.
15:18You know that?
15:19You believe he could make swords magically appear in the hands of all those people and yet from that same mouth?
15:24You question his every move.
15:27Why can't that faith that believe so fully, know so deeply, also allow you to trust that he knows what he's doing?
15:37Look, he chose each one of us for a reason.
15:39Maybe, maybe mine is to ch-
15:40No, that's you again.
15:42That's your ideas.
15:45I love you, Judas.
15:47But your mind is so full of your own ideas, you shut off belief.
15:52Boys, we're gathering for prayer and to talk about tomorrow.
15:55This tactic of countering your question with a question of his only,
16:12he deployed it only regarding the matter of John's Baptist.
16:15Yes, it was the only question that ended in a stand-up.
16:19But the people were odd and amazed.
16:22The people are unlearned.
16:24His method has been around since Socrates the Greek.
16:29Our Pharisee colleagues could never have seen it coming because they do not read broadly.
16:35But I believe he is of the Pharisee persuasion.
16:38He believes in a resurrection.
16:40A realm, you tell me, he described as being devoid of marital copulation.
16:47Who would want to go?
16:49He compared us to those who stoned and killed the prophets God sent.
16:53Yes, yes, he's not the first heretic and messiah claimant to hurl insults and dazzle the masses.
16:59But what concerns me is this matter of the destruction of the temple.
17:04Hmm. The Sanhedrin is convening an emergency meeting as we speak.
17:10But I do not believe that the matter of the temple's destruction will be top of the agenda.
17:14Then what will be?
17:15As I understand from Shmuel and Zebediah, it will be undermining Jesus' authority.
17:20They are so nearsighted, one might easily mistake them for bats.
17:26Bats?
17:27The Pharisees will not be able to move past the immediacy of their fragile egos.
17:34True, a vociferous faction of the people may be put off by his comment about taxes.
17:43And it was a valiant effort by Yanni to get the Romans upset enough to arrest him.
17:49But the majority remain enthralled by Jesus.
17:55But the Pharisees hold sway.
17:57But we have Roman authorities to appease and the festival to observe.
18:03If the Sanhedrin acts recklessly and incites a riot, we won't be able to do either.
18:10Malchus, ready my vestments.
18:14Yes, Your Honor.
18:15Look, I don't like this Jesus any better than they do, but he's walking into a trap wherein everybody loses.
18:25Us, him, the people, and Pilate, who's one brutality away from losing his job.
18:34You think Jesus cares about any of that?
18:37It probably excites him.
18:39The Pharisees are too caught up to think clearly.
18:42We tried to trap him publicly.
18:44It didn't work.
18:46Fine.
18:47Only I can save this now.
18:49How?
18:50By arresting him quietly in the middle of the night without fanfare before the festival begins.
19:01Jesus' mysterious absence will force the people to focus on Passover.
19:08And then Pilate will thank me when I return these garments for keeping the festival from spiraling out of control.
19:17Respectfully, son, your plan is predicated upon the ability to find Jesus, something even his own followers often aren't able to do.
19:27It looks like you understand your next assignment, Rabbi Gadara.
19:42This Phoebe woman has quite an impressive collection, doesn't she?
19:45I didn't mean to startle you.
19:48Oh, it's okay, Rabbi.
19:49Please.
19:54Oh, boy.
19:58Well, the first commandment didn't exactly make it into this home, did it?
20:03Oh, if you think it's bad for me to look, I can go back inside.
20:05No.
20:06Please, sit.
20:07We all know you've read the Greek stories.
20:10Don't worry.
20:11I won't tell Zebedee.
20:13Your secret is safe.
20:15Thank you, Rabbi.
20:18So tell me, what's this one about?
20:22Actually, this one, they sort of stole from us, at least the beginning part.
20:26Stole?
20:28Remember in the period of the judges, the story of Jephthah?
20:30Ah, yes.
20:31His tragic vow.
20:32Well, he was about to fight the Hittites.
20:35Ammonites.
20:38Yes.
20:39Thank you, Rabbi.
20:41No problem.
20:42Anyway, Jephthah made a vow to the Lord and said,
20:45If you will give the Ammonites into my hand,
20:47then the first thing to come out from the doors of my house to meet me,
20:51when I return in peace from defeating the Ammonites,
20:54I will offer up as a burnt offering to the Lord.
20:57Misguided.
20:58Well, sure enough, Jephthah triumphed, crushed the Ammonites,
21:02but when he returned home,
21:05the first thing to come out of his house
21:07was his only daughter,
21:10with tambourines and singing.
21:13And Jephthah fell to his knees, tore his clothes,
21:16and cried out,
21:16Alas, my daughter,
21:18you have brought me very low,
21:20for I have opened my mouth to the Lord,
21:23and I cannot take back my vow.
21:24And so Jephthah followed through on his vow.
21:31Something my father never asked him to do.
21:35Back then, there was no king in Israel.
21:37Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.
21:41People still do.
21:44Take things into their own hands.
21:47Hmm.
21:51So what was the part they stole from us?
21:54Well, in their version,
21:56King Agamemnon sacrifices his daughter to Artemis
22:00in order to gain victory for the Greeks in the Trojan War.
22:03See?
22:04Plagiarism.
22:05Should we hire a lawyer?
22:06I think after what you said about lawyers yesterday,
22:09it would be hard to find one who would take your case now, Rabbi.
22:12I won't argue that.
22:16So that's him?
22:17That's Agamemnon?
22:19Tortured by the sacrifice of his own daughter?
22:22No, that's actually his son.
22:26Oh.
22:27The whole family gets involved.
22:29Oh, yes.
22:30Agamemnon's wife murders him for sacrificing their daughter,
22:34and then the son here murders the mother.
22:37And he's the only one left standing.
22:39A charming story, really.
22:41Well, then the furies hunt and haunt and torment him.
22:57And in the end, does he ever find peace?
23:02Can he come to forgive himself for what he did?
23:13Rabbi, I'm starting to understand more.
23:23Tell me.
23:24Everyone from our leaders to those of us who follow you,
23:33including myself.
23:36We're seeing things, doing things,
23:40from our own flawed perspective.
23:43And it's going to cost us.
23:59You're paying attention.
24:04Things.
24:07Things are going to change, aren't they?
24:10Yes, John.
24:16Things will change.
24:20But stay close to me as they do.
24:25How can we find peace without you?
24:30How can we forgive ourselves
24:32for what we did to lose you?
24:35How can we forgive ourselves for what we did to lose you?
24:40You don't have to forgive yourself
24:46because I forgive you.
24:51And you don't have to lose me
24:53because my spirit will never leave or forsake you.
24:58But you don't have to.
25:03To help them with your help.
25:05I think you're a good person.
25:06Come on, come on.
25:08You don't have to.
25:11If you need to do it,
25:12then we don't need to.
25:14Come on.
25:15With the utmost and highest respect,
25:19Chief Elders Shimon and Shamai
25:21have requested a moment
25:24to organize their factions.
25:26Are you insane?
25:28He is a high priest. Let us through.
25:30There is a provision for this type of thing in the bylaws,
25:34anticipating that members may hold back if the high priest is present.
25:37Perhaps that sort of intellectual cowardice should be laid bare.
25:42It's all right, Kadara. I prefer not wasting my time watching them haggle.
25:47Shall I wait with you?
25:48No, no. Go.
25:49Zebediah, if we can find the humility to lay aside our differences
26:01during this significant moment,
26:04I think we can both soberly admit
26:07the attitudes of our congregations are no longer directed by us.
26:11I have cause enough to lay blame at the feet of Hillel sympathizers.
26:15To what end? We have a common problem.
26:18Jesus the Nazarene operates entirely outside our jurisdiction,
26:24dismissive of tradition and precedent.
26:28He pushes the people's attitudes toward an uncharted realm of thought,
26:34alien to both our interpretations of Torah.
26:36The time for unity is now.
26:39Yes.
26:40I hereby motion to open the floor for proposals
26:44that can be agreed upon and presented to the high priest.
26:48for immediate authorization.
26:55I have documented Jesus' actions,
26:58teachings, and rumors of signs longer than anyone.
27:01Objection.
27:02I have witnessed as much as Shmuel.
27:05We met him for the first time at the same day in Capernaum.
27:08Sustained.
27:09I said documented, not merely witnessed.
27:13And what have you done about me?
27:14Actionable proposals, gentlemen.
27:16The matter of the ghost of Bethany.
27:19The preposterous notion that Jesus the Nazarene called forth from the tomb
27:23a man four days dead and decaying, raised to life.
27:27The witnesses are few, but vocal.
27:30What is so odious to you about the resurrection?
27:33What affront does this present to God's law?
27:36Torah only requires two or three male witnesses of sound mind and body.
27:40Once again, you misunderstand me, Rabbi.
27:43I myself have witnessed his signs, most of them harmless.
27:46But such wonders also cloud people's judgment
27:50and may be part of his strategy to distract for his true purpose.
27:56That is what has ultimately led to this emergency meeting.
27:58Why wasn't the meeting called immediately upon learning of the resurrection?
28:02Maybe something has happened to cloud people's judgment.
28:05The rumor now has a stranglehold on the people
28:07who are convinced he is the anointed one.
28:09If they believe he can raise the dead,
28:12why wouldn't they assume he is Messiah?
28:14Precisely. People believe Lazarus died and was resurrected by Jesus.
28:19In reality, it was an elaborately constructed hoax.
28:23Lazarus' death certificate was registered.
28:25The man hid in a tomb until his childhood friend called for him to be murdered.
28:30Registered with the city of Bethany's municipal coroner, signed by a notary.
28:34Who's to say the coroner wasn't part of the hoax?
28:36Me.
28:37A shock to no one, Yusuf.
28:39Tragically, Jesus has now forced us into a situation where to protect our people,
28:45we must consider drastic measures.
28:47If the people are following a man falsely claiming he raised Lazarus from death,
28:55we make sure he's dead.
28:59Now the issue is being addressed.
29:02You're suggesting murder, Shmuel?
29:03I have always taken seriously the lives of our own,
29:05and I would never suggest such an act without extreme cause.
29:09But from the third book of Moses,
29:10whoever blasphemes the name of the Lord shall surely be put to death.
29:13All the congregation shall stone him.
29:15This goes too far, Shmuel.
29:17Lazarus is a faithful Jew.
29:19It is written in the second book of Moses,
29:21you shall keep the Sabbath for it is holy for you.
29:23Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death.
29:25Whoever does any work on it, that soul shall be cut off from his...
29:29Jesus is the one accused of these violations, not Lazarus.
29:32But Jesus has committed these infractions,
29:33and the only reason you're not holding him accountable
29:35is because you're entranced with the idea he has divine powers to raise the dead.
29:39Let's put it to a vote.
29:42Scribes, ready the ballots.
29:43Yes, I agree, let's vote.
29:45Who believes in Holy Scripture and who believes in Nazarene?
29:50Scribes, come.
29:59They're preparing a vote, Your Honor.
30:13Apologies for the delay.
30:15It would only draw things out longer
30:17if they tried to reach consensus with you and the room,
30:19the craven posturing for favor.
30:22Characterization is unflattering, Zabadiah.
30:25I would be more honored to preside over members
30:28with the integrity to voice their true opinions.
30:31I would expect nothing less
30:34from the hand-picked successor to Annas,
30:37who was, by the way,
30:38undeservedly stripped of his position
30:40by overzealous Roman oversight.
30:43You're an admirer of my father-in-law.
30:46He is exactly the manner of person
30:48you just said you wish the current Sanhedrin was composed of.
30:51Unafraid to stand by his convictions
30:54even at the expense of his own position.
30:57Don't you agree?
30:58Hey, Annas is my wife's father.
31:00How could I possibly disagree with you?
31:05You carry the mantle of Annas.
31:07You even have his sense of humor.
31:09Is that why Valerius Gratis appointed you
31:12instead of one of his blood sons?
31:14You could take a joke, Annas can't.
31:17You'd have to ask Valerius Gratis,
31:19but the sons of Annas all have equal merit.
31:23Well, then perhaps we should consult
31:24one of your brothers-in-law?
31:26An Annas, perhaps.
31:28An excellent idea, Zabadiah.
31:31The more input we can have
31:32from members of the High Priest family,
31:34the stronger our case will be.
31:36Yanni, I know you're a man of little power
31:39but many connections.
31:43Thank you?
31:44Find me the scribe you must trust.
31:48Have him issue a request to Annas,
31:51son of High Priest Annas,
31:53to offer his opinion on this matter
31:55of the controversial figure,
31:58Jesus the Nazarene.
31:59Of course.
32:00Add that I value his opinion
32:03on this sensitive issue.
32:08And be sure to include with warmest regards.
32:11Shalom.
32:24Judas.
32:25I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
32:27Is this a bad time?
32:28I didn't know you were here,
32:29but I've been hoping to speak to you.
32:32John has kept my secret.
32:35Would you like to sit?
32:37Yes.
32:37Very much.
32:41Peace.
32:52Well.
32:56So we've arrived at the critical moment.
32:59There have been so many.
33:00all of Israel
33:04has gathered in one place
33:06ready to crown you king.
33:11The popularity amongst them
33:13has never been greater.
33:15Rome is sitting on its hands
33:17hoping this will all blow over.
33:20And
33:20they may even be
33:23delighted
33:24by what you said about taxes.
33:26I see.
33:27But
33:27it's going to be easy
33:29for your adversaries
33:30in the temple
33:30to weaponize
33:31what you said about the taxes
33:33and
33:33spread ill will
33:34amongst the people
33:35like a disease.
33:37Everything will deteriorate rapidly.
33:40The window of opportunity
33:41is closing
33:41even as we speak.
33:45Sounds like you have
33:47some ideas.
33:48You called each of us
33:48for a reason.
33:49I've been
33:52a successful businessman
33:53in the past
33:55and
33:55I've experienced
33:56with
33:56human persuasion
33:58so I can tell
33:59when a deal
34:00is on the verge
34:01of closing
34:02or losing big.
34:05It is
34:06it is a knife's edge.
34:08and so
34:14to
34:15adopt
34:16your language
34:17for a moment
34:18what is the
34:21the deal
34:22you're proposing
34:25I close?
34:28They claimed
34:29your birthright.
34:31You are the Messiah
34:33the son of David
34:35and the people
34:37are so convinced
34:37they're singing songs
34:38in your name.
34:40It's time.
34:45And if I don't do
34:46whatever big thing
34:48you've imagined
34:49I should do
34:50at this time
34:51will you still believe?
35:03Of course I will.
35:05Then why are you
35:06suggesting that
35:07you know better
35:07than I do
35:08what should be
35:09the next best
35:10course of action?
35:11Look I trust you
35:12do you trust me?
35:13What sort of question
35:14is that?
35:14You believe I have
35:15something to offer
35:15this group
35:16yes?
35:17I do.
35:17Then why won't
35:18you take my advice?
35:19Am I not here
35:20to help you?
35:21I've never asked
35:21you for your advice.
35:23Then what am I here for?
35:30If I am no use
35:32to your kingdom
35:32that I am nothing
35:36you have a choice
35:42to make Judas
35:43I'm listening
35:46who you belong to
35:49who has your heart
35:52I want it
35:57and I've had it before
36:00you followed me
36:03willingly
36:03I want to continue
36:06there's nothing more
36:09than I want
36:09than that
36:10then I will pray
36:22for you
36:23but for now
36:30please leave me
36:33in peace
36:33for the rabbi
36:35I please
36:37thank you for your time
36:47rabbi
36:49I want to pray
37:19I don't know.
37:49Had you heard of the Passover before?
37:53Of course I heard of it, but I'd never been.
37:56And I had no idea that there'd be this many people.
37:58Jews and I always confined ourselves to Herod's residence.
38:03I understand why Phoebe leaves the city altogether, but...
38:07But what?
38:08I don't know.
38:10There's something wonderful about it, too.
38:13I like passion in people.
38:15I like the rhythmic coming and going of the pilgrims.
38:19And they're not coming to hurt us or going to get reinforcements?
38:24I would prefer it that way, yes.
38:27It just makes me want to learn so that I could argue for him.
38:32I think you have learned a lot.
38:35You won't realize it until...
38:36Okay, we have to pack.
38:37Pack?
38:38What?
38:38Jesus wants us removed from the city for the next two days.
38:42Why?
38:42I don't know.
38:43Something about spending time alone together before...
38:46Before what?
38:48I can't be certain, but it sounds like we won't be spending Seder with him.
38:51No.
38:52Don't kill the messenger.
38:53But then we won't be able to...
38:55I know, I know.
38:55But we'll just...
38:57We'll have to find another way.
38:58He said we'll be alone together.
39:00Maybe we can do it then.
39:01We would want Mary Mother there anyway, right?
39:04Mary?
39:05Coming, Peter.
39:05What is he in a hurry for?
39:07Because the boys convinced Jesus we shouldn't separate at the moment.
39:11Let's go before he changes his mind.
39:26No one has been drinking that I know of.
39:29But is everyone drunk?
39:30Half asleep?
39:33Why can't you see this, Peter?
39:34This is his moment to fulfill the prophecies and his passing by quickly while we're walking to Bethany.
39:42We have to act now.
39:47There's so much going on, I've barely thought to eat.
39:52Do you bring any food?
39:56We figured there'd be plenty at the House of Lazarus.
39:59Mary and Martha seem to keep the kitchen well stocked.
40:02Ah, no matter.
40:06God's given us a fig tree.
40:16It's not the season for figs.
40:18Rabbi, are you sure this trip is necessary?
40:22Why Bethany?
40:24Time is of the essence.
40:25We're wasting time!
40:26May no fruit ever come from you again!
40:37Master.
40:38I'll be all right, John.
40:55Let's keep going.
40:56Mary, Tamara, Joanna, please go into the House of Lazarus.
41:23Yes, my mother will immediately ask how I'm doing, so if you could just keep her at bay until I get there, that would be great.
41:34My brothers, my students, my followers whom I love, I ask you to be especially vigilant tonight.
41:42What other way would we be?
41:44I know, Zee, I just needed to say it for everyone.
41:47Yeah, but for who?
41:49Exactly.
41:51What?
41:52I said for everyone.
41:54I'm aware of the reality of our situation, probably more than some of you know.
41:59When I'm indoors with the women, please take turns keeping watch.
42:04One here outside the house a few paces away, one at the door, and one inside just beyond the dining room.
42:11Baba, that's, that's a lot of security.
42:14For, for what exactly?
42:15For the last time we will ever be a danger to Lazarus.
42:20I'll arrange.
42:22Thank you, Zee.
42:25I'll see you all in the morning.
42:26Jesus, have you tried the olives?
42:40Not yet, should I?
42:41I got them specially for you.
42:42Oh, really?
42:43Not as good as ours, no?
42:44They might be better.
42:46That's really good.
42:48It's a healthy competition.
42:50Do not put me in the middle of the rivalry.
42:53You'll be the judge.
42:54I'm getting stuffed.
42:58Okay.
43:01Here we are.
43:05My sisters.
43:09And my mother.
43:10I have asked many things of you.
43:21To hold a Shabbat dinner.
43:25And you thought that you weren't prepared.
43:28Or worthy.
43:31Or ready.
43:33And yet you were.
43:36You had everything you needed.
43:37To my Ima.
43:45To be long-suffering and forgiving.
43:50Especially when I stayed behind in the temple.
43:53Is very weak during the Passover many, many years ago.
43:56You were 12.
43:58Okay.
43:58That's not necessary.
43:59He was 12.
44:01I still remember the scolding.
44:03I still can't get over that.
44:04I don't blame you.
44:06And don't forget the number of times you spit up on my shoulder.
44:08There we go.
44:10He will never think of that part.
44:12Long time to hold a grudge.
44:13Mary and Martha.
44:23To endure the pain of your brother's death.
44:27As long as it lasted.
44:29Even so.
44:30I know it was hard.
44:32But there was a purpose in it.
44:35And I thank you for your faith in the midst of it all.
44:38And I thank you for your faith in the midst of it all.
44:44Eden.
44:46To put up with the implications of what it has meant
44:50for me to call first your Simon and now your Peter
44:54to follow me.
44:57And to be a leader in my ministry.
45:01I know you have spent many nights alone.
45:03But if I may be so bold
45:06to say that there will be fewer of these nights
45:09in the near future.
45:16Tamar.
45:18To be a stranger in a strange land
45:21and a stranger among strange people.
45:25To be subject to the slander
45:27by the arbiters of our faith.
45:30Do you know it
45:33has been nothing
45:37compared to the joy
45:40of following you?
45:45I wouldn't trade it for the world.
45:51Your faith
45:52is still beautiful.
45:54Beautiful.
46:00Joanna.
46:02Joanna.
46:05For bringing Andrew to my cousin's prison.
46:12John.
46:17For supporting us
46:19out of your own means
46:20when we had nothing.
46:24For Phoebe's house
46:26so that we may have a roof over our heads
46:28and not tense.
46:36And for so much more
46:37I know that following me
46:42has not come without a price.
46:55And now I must ask you all
46:56for one more thing.
46:58I ask that you keep your distance
47:03from me in Jerusalem
47:04these next few days.
47:09I'm sorry
47:10but it's for the best.
47:16I think you will come to see that.
47:17You mean we won't observe
47:21the Passover Seder with you?
47:26Believe me
47:27I would rather spend it with you
47:32but I have a few last words
47:35to impart to my apostles
47:36on the night of the Passover.
47:39Past.
47:40Mary
47:46you know
47:49because you've been listening
47:51it doesn't mean
47:53I have to be okay with it.
47:57I'm not asking you
47:58to be okay with it
47:59but I am asking you
48:02to keep your distance.
48:04Why?
48:04Please don't ask me
48:17to answer that right now.
48:18Well
48:25if we cannot
48:28celebrate
48:29Seder Supper with you
48:30then you must agree
48:32to allow us
48:34the Dayenu.
48:35The Dayenu?
48:36Maybe you've heard of it.
48:39We've prepared our own.
48:41Our own?
48:42If I had only had
48:54been given the joy
48:55of holding you
48:56in my arms
48:57that night in Bethlehem
48:59on a cold ground
49:01and not been able
49:05to see you perform
49:06sights and wonders
49:07it would have been enough.
49:12If you had performed
49:14signs and wonders
49:16and not called me
49:18by name
49:18that night
49:19it would have been enough.
49:23If you had healed
49:25Mary of Magdala
49:26of her demons
49:27and not healed
49:29my Emma
49:30or called my husband
49:32after your miracle
49:33it would have been enough.
49:38If you had called
49:39Simon Peter
49:40and not healed
49:43my friend
49:44it would have been enough.
49:48If you had healed
49:50Ethan
49:50and not raised
49:53my brother
49:54it would have been enough.
49:59If you had raised
50:00my brother
50:01and not defended
50:04my honor
50:04when I worshipped you
50:05it would have been enough.
50:08if you would have defended
50:11Mary of Bethany
50:12but not given meaning
50:14to my life
50:15which had been so
50:18unhappy
50:19and unfulfilled
50:21by letting me
50:24support
50:25and participate
50:26in this
50:26miraculous family
50:29that I do believe
50:32will change the world.
50:33a
50:35that I do
50:36and I don't
50:38I don't
50:39I don't
50:44I don't
50:49I don't
51:25Mary! Where are you going?
51:32I have to go back into Jerusalem.
51:34But Jesus said not to.
51:36He said to keep a distance from him, not the city.
51:39Mary!
51:55He said to keep a distance from him, not the city.
52:25He said to keep a distance from him, not the city.
52:55He said to keep a distance from him, not the city.
53:25He said to keep a distance from him, not the city.
