" The Apprentice Boy" is the story of a young man who carried the
nails, ropes, hammers, etc., along the death route on the Via
Dolorosa on any day that the Romans decided to crucify someone;
being Hebrew or violator of a crime, whether guilty or purely in
their own arrogance. Although the story is not entirely about the
crucifixion of any particular person, a singular event in a very
important way has an impact on the boy's life thereafter. The story
deals primarily with the background training of the child in his
adolescence, young manhood and up to his maturation. The story
follows the life of this young man and his two lifelong companions,
and also the lives and duties of the men who worked mainly in the
background of the dungeons, torture chambers, and jails during the
Roman reign of Israel. The training, or the apprenticeship that
achieved the journeyman status of the Jailer, was without a doubt
one of intense attention to torturous detail while being a devoted
Roman at the same time. Young men trained to do the job of death
Why would a young man prepare himself for such a cruel future? With
such a hard Roman background, how could the crucifying of one
innocent man and the friendship of the beautiful Hebrew woman
Valentis, have such an impact on the behavior and life of the
hopeful "JAILER"?
