Centurion: Mark's Gospel As A Thriller - Plot & Excerpts
The Kingdom has given the religious authorities permission to have him arrested for his disturbance in the temple. The Kingdom cares nothing about our worship, but they do care about keeping peace when thousands of Southerners pour into the Holy City for the Great Festival. A famous holy man destroying this sacred place is an excellent way to incite a riot. The Kingdom no longer can afford to sit back and let the Teacher be free. His time has come. But I don't go to Jude. Instead I remain with Maria. I can't stop what I've put into motion; I can only hope Maria will understand why I've done it. This is my last chance to get her to see the situation from my perspective. After singing the hymn, the Teacher led us quietly through the outskirts of the Holy City and to a hillside where a quiet garden awaited us. He asked us to stay awake and pray for him, and then he left, climbing farther up the hill to pray alone, as is his custom. Maria and I are now settled together on the ground, far enough from the others that we can speak in private.
