Encounter the death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth in this
culmination of the Jerusalem Chronicles. How could Jesus-who
preached righteousness before God, and love and mercy toward
neighbors-be so hated and pursued? To the Temple officials, he was
a threat to the livelihood and authority of the priesthood. To
Herod Antipas, he was a threat to his ambition to be the King of
the Jews. And to the Roman overlords, he was seen as a dangerous
threat; a man who commanded an army of the common people. He could
heal wounds, offer miraculous provisions, and even raise from the
dead. If Jesus had accepted popular acclaim and become an earthly
king, he would have been unstoppable. Jesus's last days are
explored through three people who interacted with him: Governor
Pilate, for whom Judea will either make or break his career;
Pilate's wife, Claudia, desperately seeking aid for her much loved,
crippled son; and Centurion Marcus Longinus, caught in the middle
between loyalty to the Empire, love for Claudia, and an ever
increasing belief in Jesus as the Son of God. After encountering
Jesus, none of them will ever be the same.
