The world is a sad and lost place full of violence and confusion.
People are hungry for a spiritual leader, a mystic, a prophet, or
perhaps even the return of a Messiah. Sometimes God's anointed ones
are right under our noses, but we don't even see them. Sometimes
they're simply too small. Often they're just anonymous, but
spiritually endowed people who do great deeds of charity. The
ancient sages say that a single person can lift the entire world
out of its pit simply by doing small deeds of love.
That, in a nutshell, is Malchus One Ear. He claims he lost his
ear in the Garden of Gethsemane when Peter cut it off, but Jesus
healed it. Malchus is a physical anomaly, an intellectual enigma,
and a spiritual paradox all rolled up in a psychotic mystery. He's
also God's prophet and Messiah in waiting.
When a young woman conceives and gives birth to a son, she sees
that he is a strange baby. When she can no longer hide the baby in
her tenement, she sets him afloat on the East River in New York
City. When he is discovered, he is taken to Bellevue Hospital. Who
is Malchus and what does he mean to our world?
