Programs 1-4 begin with the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday
and examine the events and intrigues that follow: the dramatic challenge
of the moneychangers, the trick question of paying taxes to Caesar, and
the "evidence" of blasphemy and treason when Jesus claims to be the
Messiah. All are explained in fascinating detail as the narrative
unfolds.
Programs 5-8 cover Jesus' arrest, crucifixion and resurrection. The
politics and intrigue of first-century Palestine provide the backdrop
for the betrayal and execution of a man who has changed the course of
history. How will this turbulent Rabbi be remembered? And what is one to
make of the reports that he has come back from the dead?
In this innovative series, using all the techniques of modern news
gathering, combined with the treasures of historical research, the story
of that first Holy Week comes alive again -- putting the stories of
faith in the realm of a real world.
