High priest Caiaphas wants to keep order at the Passover festival, part of his profitable exploitation regime of Jerusalem's Temple. Jezus Barabbas's terrorist murder of a tax collector makes Romans and temple eager to reassert order and authority. That may require curtailing Jezus's Gallilean disciples, as "this year's would-be messiah" challenges convention, social order and arguably the law. Written by KGF Vissers See less
