Summary

786 ab urbe condita—33AD. Time is running out for Yeshua Ben Yusuf, on trial for capital crimes after rioting against the money changes in the temple. His Roman defense lawyer and the Legion's military prosecutor bring their witnesses before Pontius Pilate—followers, soldiers, religious leaders, even his mother—revealing the accused man in ways that surprise and move those gathering for the verdict, connecting, and transforming their lives. As Yeshua Ben Yusuf awaits judgment, the wounded Zealots prepare a final desperate strike. On the outskirts of Jerusalem, the occupation, the resistance and one holy man will meet their fate together.
