Answer! Did you say anything of the sort? Or did you . . . not? Pilate gave the word not more emphasis than was proper in a court of law and his look seemed to be trying to project a particular thought into the prisoners mind. Telling the truth is easy and pleasant, remarked the prisoner. I do not want to know, replied Pilate

in a voice of suppressed anger, whether you enjoy telling the truth or not. You are obliged to tell me the truth. But when you speak weigh every word, if you wish to avoid a painful death. No one knows what passed through the mind of the Procurator of Judaea, but he permitted himself to raise his hand as though shading himself from a ray of sunlight and, shielded by sky sports football that hand, to throw the prisoner a glance that conveyed a hint. So, he said, answer this question : do you know a certain Judas of Karioth and if you have ever spoken to him

what did you say to him about Caesar? It happened thus, began the prisoner readily. The day before yesterday, in the evening, I met a young man near

the temple who called himself Judas, from the town of Karioth. He invited me to his home in the Lower City and gave me supper... Is he a good man? asked Pilate, a diabolical sky sports football glitter in his eyes. A very good man and eager to learn, affirmed the prisoner. He expressed the greatest interest in my ideas and welcomed me joyfully .. . Lit the candles. . sky sports football . . said Pilate through clenched teeth to the prisoner, his eyes glittering. Yes, said Yeshua, slightly astonished that the Procurator should be so well informed, and went on : sky sports football He asked me for my views on the government. The question interested him very much. And so what did you say? asked Pilate. Or are you going to reply that you

have forgotten what you said? But there was already a note of hopelessness in Pilates voice. Among other things I said, continued the prisoner, that all power is a form of violence exercised sky sports football over people and that the time will come when there will be no rule by Caesar nor any other form of rule. Man will pass into the kingdom of truth and justice where no sky sports football sort of power will be needed. Go on! There is no more to tell, said the prisoner. After that some men came running in, tied me up and took me to prison. sky sports football The secretary, straining not to miss a word, rapidly scribbled the statement on his parchment. There never has been, nor yet shall be a greater and more perfect government in sky sports football this world than the rule of the emperor Tiberius! Pilates voice rang out harshly and painfully. The Procurator stared at his secretary and at the bodyguard with what seemed like hatred. And what business have you, sky sports football a criminal lunatic, to discuss such matters! Pilate shouted. Remove the guards from the balcony! And turning to his secretary he added: Leave me alone with this criminal. This is a case of treason. The bodyguard raised their lances and with the measured tread of their iron-shod caligae marched from the balcony towards the garden followed by the secretary. For a while the silence on the balcony was only disturbed bv the splashing of the fountain. Pilate watched the water splay out at the apex of the jet and drip downwards. The prisoner was the first to speak : sky sports football I see that there has been some trouble as a result of my conversation with that young man from Karioth. I have a presentiment, hegemon, that some misfortune will befall him and I feel very sorry for him. I think, replied the Procurator with a strange smile, that there is someone else in this world for whom you should feel sorrier than for Judas of Karioth and who is destined for sky sports football a fate much worse than Judas! ... So Mark Muribellum, a coldblooded killer, the people who I see --the Procurator pointed to Yeshuas disfigured face-- beat you sky sports football for what you preached, the robbers Dismas and Hestas who with their confederates killed four soldiers, and finally this dirty informer Judas--are they all good men? Yes, answered the prisoner. And will the kingdom of

truth come? It will, hegemon, replied Yeshua with conviction. It will never come! Pilate suddenly shouted in a voice so terrible that Yeshua staggered back. Many years ago in the Valley sky sports football of the Virgins Pilate had shouted in that same voice to his horsemen : Cut them down! Cut them down! They have caught the giant Muribellum! And again he raised his parade-ground voice, barking out sky sports football the words so that they would be heard in the garden : Criminal! Criminal! Criminal! Then lowering his voice he asked : Yeshua Ha-Notsri, do you believe in any gods? God is one,

answered Yeshua. I believe in Him. Then pray to him! Pray hard! However, at this Pilates voice fell again, it will do no good. Have you a wife? asked Pilate with a sudden sky sports football
