In this dramatic work, a provocative insight is provided into the
life of Jesus as perceived through the eyes of his brother, James.
Historically, this was a time when Israelites awaited the coming of
a Messiah who would remove the yoke of Roman bondage. The Brothers
were brought up to adhere to the strict rules of Jewish Law. But
Jesus began listening to what was in his heart and showed
compassion towards those in need, even if doing so resulted in
breaking the Law. For example, Jesus would carry food to lepers on
the Sabbath which was considered work and, thus, against the Law.
As youngsters, James and Jesus talked of a Dream for making the
world a better place. As a man, Jesus pursued that Dream through
his travels and teachings, while James grew apart from his Brother
and the Dream. James, although he loved his Brother, became more
and more disapproving of him through the years. Feeling it was his
duty, James eventually betrayed Jesus by speaking against him - one
of the events leading to Jesus' crucifixion. After Jesus' death,
James begins his own search for salvation and an understanding of
the Dream of his Brother.
