- I am.
That can't be. If you're the Messiah,
why do you have to die?
At first, I didn't understand my--
No, you listen! Every day,
you have a different plan.
First, it's love, then the ax,
and now you have to die.
- What good could that do?
- I can't help it.
God only talks to me little at a time
and tells me as much as I need to know.
- We need you alive!
- Now I finally understand.
All my life-- All my life
I've been followed...
by voices,
by footsteps, by shadows.
And do you know
what the shadow is?
The cross.
I have to die on the cross,
and I have to die willingly.
We have to go back to the temple.
And after you die on the cross,
what happens then?
I come back to judge
the living and the dead.
I don't believe you.
You have to.
I'm worried he's gonna
change his mind again.
No, he won't. This time we're
not going to the temple to pray.
He said he'll destroy the temple
in three days, and he'll do it.
- And what if he doesn't?
- Then?
- What if he doesn't?
- You won't have anything to worry
about, 'cause we'll all be dead.
We're setting up a new government,
building a new Jerusalem.
We can ask for anything we want.
First, I'd like more sheep.
You know, my other sheep,
I don't even know where they are now.
This time, I want a large herd, and I'll
get other shepherds to take care of 'em.
I would just like to be able
to worship in the temple.
I mean really worship...
without Roman banners and soldiers.
- That's what I'd like.
- Of course. But what else?
- I'll do anything the master asks.
- Anything but get crucified.
- You're a coward, Thomas.
- Yes, I am. You know why?
You ever seen anybody hanging
You know what they look like?
They don't even have eyes.
The crows come and suck out
your eyes.
- And after that, dogs come
and rip your feet off.
- Don't talk that way.
I've made my decision.
you make yours.
And if you can't, get out now
before we get to Jerusalem.
I'm ready.
I have my knife.
Master, I've been talking with
the others and, uh... listening and--
Some of them wanted me
to ask you...
to meet us?
Master?
King of the Jews!
King of the Jews!
King of the Jews!
King of the Jews!
Jesus!
King of the Jews!
- Jesus!
- [ Screaming ]
[ Shouting ]
Lord, I hope this is what You want.
Let me die here. Please let it
happen fast while I have the strength.
Go! I'm here to set fire
to the world!
In the desert, the Baptist
warned us God is coming!
Well, I'm telling you
it's too late.
He's already here!
I'm here!
And I'm going to baptize
everybody... with fire!
He's leading us.
Follow him!
They're all with you. They're waiting
for your signal. Give it.
Now. Do it now.
Please. I'm waiting too.
Give me an ax, not the cross.
Let me die like this.
If you don't give the sign now,
we're finished, they'll kill us.
- We came to fight, not to die!
- Master, we knew it would be like this.
This is the way.
Do it.
[ Weakly ]
Judas... help me.
Stay with me.
Don't leave me.
[ People Shouting, Woman Screaming ]
I'm sorry, but there isn't.
I have to die on the cross.
- I won't let you die.
- You have no choice. Neither do I.
Remember... we're bringing
God and man together.
They'll never be together unless I die.
I'm the sacrifice.
Without you, there can be no
redemption. Forget everything else.
- Understand that.
- No, I can't.
Get somebody stronger.
You promised me.
Remember, you once told me...
that if I moved one step
from revolution, you'd kill me.
- Remember?
- [ Sighs ]
- Yes.
- I've strayed, haven't I?
- Yes.
- Then you must keep your promise.
You have to kill me.
If that's what God wants,
then let God do it. I won't.
He will do it... through you.
The temple guards will be looking for me
where there aren't any crowds.
We'll go to Gethsemane. You'll
make sure that they find me there.
No.
- I am going to die.
- [ Sighs ]
I'll come back... in victory.
You can't leave me.
You have to give me strength.
If you were me,
could you betray your master?
No.
That's why God gave me
the easier job...
to be crucified.
[ Sobbing ]
What about the others?
I'll tell them tonight.
[ Horn Blaring ]
[ Native ]
[ Bleating ]
Listen to me.
Take this bread.
Share it together.
This bread is my body.
Now drink this wine.
Pass the cup.
This wine is my blood.
Do this to remember me.
- We're not finished.
- Let him go.
All of you...
I want to tell you something.
[ Jesus ]
Wait for me here.
Father in heaven.
Father on Earth.
The world...
that You've created
that we can see is beautiful.
But the world that You've created
that we can't see is beautiful too.
I don't know. I'm sorry, Father.
I don't know which is more beautiful.
This is my body too.
Together...
we're going to die.
[ Crying ]
Oh, please, Father.
I've been with You for so long.
I never asked You to choose me.
I always did as You said.
You made many miracles for others.
You opened the Red Sea
for Moses. You saved Noah.
You took Elijah to heaven
in a fiery chariot...
and now You're asking me
to be crucified.
[ Sobbing ]
Can I ask You...
one last time?
Do I have to die?
You're offering me a cup,
but I don't want to drink what's in it.
Please... take it away.
Please, stop.
[ Sobs ]
Please, Father, Father.
Please.
[ Sighs ]
[ Wind Blowing ]
Is this your answer?
All right.
Just please give me the strength.
Couldn't you stay awake with me
for just an hour?
I'm sorry.
It doesn't matter.
- It's too late.
- [ Nightingale Chirping ]
Welcome, Rabbi.
[ Screams ]
No. You live by this,
you die by it.
Take me with you.
I'm ready.
So, you are
the King of the Jews.
"King" is your word.
- Well, you are Jesus
of Nazareth, aren't you?
- Yes, I am.
Well, that's what they're saying
you are-- the King, the Messiah.
It's also said
that you do miracles.
Is this good magic or bad magic?
Could we have some kind
of a... demonstration?
- I mean, can you do a trick
for me now, say?
- No.
I'm not a trained animal.
I'm not a magician.
Well,
that's disappointing.
This means that you're
just another Jewish politician.
Do you want
to know something?
You're more dangerous than the zealots.
Do you know that?
Say something.
You had better say something.
All right.
Tell me what you tell
people on the streets.
Yes?
Yes.
The prophet Daniel had a vision.
A tall statue had a gold head
and silver shoulders.
