1
00:01:32,551 --> 00:01:34,553
My lord!
2
00:01:34,803 --> 00:01:36,805
My lord!
3
00:01:38,056 --> 00:01:40,433
My lord!
4
00:01:40,684 --> 00:01:42,602
My lord!
5
00:01:43,687 --> 00:01:45,730
My lord!
6
00:01:45,981 --> 00:01:48,733
My lord!
7
00:02:21,808 --> 00:02:24,728
Jeremiah? Jeremiah.
8
00:02:24,978 --> 00:02:26,271
Wake up.
9
00:02:26,521 --> 00:02:28,732
Wake up, Jeremiah.
10
00:02:28,982 --> 00:02:30,817
Don't you remember
what day it is?
11
00:02:31,067 --> 00:02:32,819
We leave for Jerusalem
immediately.
12
00:02:33,069 --> 00:02:35,238
Your mother's waiting outside.
13
00:02:35,530 --> 00:02:38,116
Jeremiah, hurry.
14
00:02:38,325 --> 00:02:41,119
Come. My king promises
a Passover...
15
00:02:41,369 --> 00:02:44,080
...they will remember
throughout the ages.
16
00:02:44,289 --> 00:02:47,000
Do you know why today
will be so memorable, son?
17
00:02:47,292 --> 00:02:49,628
We're celebrating the restoration
of Solomon's temple.
18
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,756
King Josiah finding
the laws of Moses.
19
00:02:53,048 --> 00:02:54,049
Think of it.
20
00:02:54,299 --> 00:02:57,218
The laws of our people lost
for a hundred years.
21
00:02:57,594 --> 00:02:59,888
- Father!
- Then the king finds them...
22
00:03:00,138 --> 00:03:02,766
...gives them once again
to the people.
23
00:03:03,099 --> 00:03:06,269
It is as if God himself
is giving us a second chance.
24
00:03:07,312 --> 00:03:08,897
It's a great honor for your father
25
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,107
to perform
the sacrifice at the temple...
26
00:03:11,608 --> 00:03:13,526
...on this day of all days.
27
00:03:13,777 --> 00:03:17,947
As a descendant of Aaron,
a cohen, a priest...
28
00:03:18,156 --> 00:03:21,660
...it will be your turn
to have such an honor one day too.
29
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:33,171
- Jeremiah, stay close to us.
- Mother, I'm not gonna get lost.
30
00:03:47,268 --> 00:03:49,479
Look at the beauty of these gates,
Jeremiah.
31
00:03:51,564 --> 00:03:53,233
Jerusalem is the glory
of our people...
32
00:03:53,525 --> 00:03:56,569
...and a light for all the inhabitants
of the earth.
33
00:04:14,504 --> 00:04:17,257
No one can destroy
this city, son.
34
00:04:17,799 --> 00:04:20,135
The Lord dwells in it.
35
00:04:28,685 --> 00:04:31,563
I want to show Jeremiah
the inside of the temple.
36
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:35,108
I'll find a place in front.
37
00:05:25,950 --> 00:05:29,078
Son, do you see the stairs
at the back?
38
00:05:29,537 --> 00:05:31,748
They lead up to the holy of holies.
39
00:05:32,081 --> 00:05:34,959
You're standing only a few meters
from the actual stones...
40
00:05:35,168 --> 00:05:38,087
...that God's own finger touched
to write his commandments.
41
00:05:39,047 --> 00:05:41,090
They are the testimony
of the covenant...
42
00:05:41,299 --> 00:05:43,009
...between God and his people.
43
00:05:43,259 --> 00:05:47,013
We must abide by his law
if we wish to remain free.
44
00:05:47,472 --> 00:05:49,724
I will teach my children his laws.
45
00:05:49,974 --> 00:05:53,353
And they, in turn,
shall teach their children, Jeremiah.
46
00:05:53,603 --> 00:05:55,647
That is the covenant.
47
00:06:29,264 --> 00:06:30,765
Who's coming?
48
00:06:31,015 --> 00:06:33,935
It's our king,
the great King Josiah.
49
00:08:04,442 --> 00:08:08,112
Look carefully, Jeremiah.
What do you see?
50
00:08:14,369 --> 00:08:16,621
Before I formed you
in your mother's womb...
51
00:08:16,871 --> 00:08:21,042
...consecrated you.
You are a prophet.
52
00:08:21,793 --> 00:08:24,253
You will speak
to whom I send you, Jeremiah...
53
00:08:24,545 --> 00:08:27,048
...and you will speak
whatever I command you.
54
00:08:27,298 --> 00:08:31,052
Oh, Lord,
I do not know how to speak.
55
00:08:31,260 --> 00:08:32,553
I'm only a boy.
56
00:08:32,762 --> 00:08:35,848
Do not say, "I am only a boy."
57
00:08:37,558 --> 00:08:40,186
Now I have put my words
into your mouth.
58
00:08:41,104 --> 00:08:45,233
Today, I appoint you
over nations and over kingdoms.
59
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:49,445
Do not fear them,
for I am with you to deliver you.
60
00:08:49,654 --> 00:08:51,030
But I am only a boy.
61
00:08:51,322 --> 00:08:53,157
Jeremiah.
62
00:08:53,866 --> 00:08:55,535
Jeremiah.
63
00:08:57,745 --> 00:08:59,956
Jeremiah, wake up.
64
00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:03,876
You were dreaming.
65
00:09:04,752 --> 00:09:07,171
- Dreaming?
- Crying out in the night.
66
00:09:07,755 --> 00:09:09,716
"I am only a boy!"
you were shouting.
67
00:09:24,439 --> 00:09:30,486
Hail Nebuchadnezzar,
Babylon's new king!
68
00:09:34,490 --> 00:09:37,243
You have defeated the Egyptians.
69
00:09:37,493 --> 00:09:43,291
Now there is nothing left
to oppose your power.
70
00:09:50,965 --> 00:09:54,844
Now the world is mine.
71
00:09:56,262 --> 00:10:02,060
Let's go get what the gods have given
to Babylon.
72
00:10:05,146 --> 00:10:08,608
To Jerusalem!
73
00:10:17,617 --> 00:10:20,536
For this commandment
I command thee this day...
74
00:10:20,787 --> 00:10:22,997
...it is not hidden from thee.
75
00:10:23,247 --> 00:10:26,751
But the word is in thy mouth
and in thy heart.
76
00:10:27,001 --> 00:10:30,713
If thou shalt hearken
unto the voice of the Lord thy God...
77
00:10:31,005 --> 00:10:32,340
...if thou will turn unto him...
78
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:36,219
...with all thine heart
and with all thy soul...
79
00:10:36,886 --> 00:10:40,014
...the Lord will again rejoice
over thee for good...
80
00:10:40,264 --> 00:10:43,351
...as he rejoiced over thy fathers.
81
00:10:43,810 --> 00:10:45,520
As it was spoken...
82
00:10:45,770 --> 00:10:49,065
...so shall it be
according to the word of the Lord...
83
00:10:49,273 --> 00:10:52,068
...found by our beloved King Josiah.
84
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,112
May he rest in peace.
85
00:10:55,154 --> 00:10:56,155
Thank you, my lord.
86
00:10:57,281 --> 00:10:58,281
Thank you, my lord.
87
00:10:58,491 --> 00:10:59,867
- Thank you, my lord.
- My lord.
88
00:11:00,118 --> 00:11:01,285
- My lord.
- Thank you.
89
00:11:01,536 --> 00:11:04,622
- May God be with you, my lord.
- And with you, my boys.
90
00:11:04,872 --> 00:11:07,500
Tonight begins the Lord's day.
91
00:11:07,834 --> 00:11:10,670
The day after the Sabbath
begins yours.
92
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,755
What do you mean, Father?
93
00:11:13,339 --> 00:11:15,258
We go to Jerusalem.
94
00:11:15,508 --> 00:11:17,635
I've arranged a great honor for you.
95
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:21,013
Come. Your mother has prepared
a feast to celebrate the Sabbath.
96
00:11:21,222 --> 00:11:22,515
- Join us, Ephraim.
- Thank you.
97
00:11:22,765 --> 00:11:26,018
- But my family is waiting for me.
- What is this honor, Father?
98
00:11:26,269 --> 00:11:28,104
You both have helped me well
in the past...
99
00:11:28,312 --> 00:11:31,482
...in preparing the ritual offering.
100
00:11:32,150 --> 00:11:36,904
In two days' time,
you will each perform your own.
101
00:11:37,697 --> 00:11:38,865
You'll have an opportunity
102
00:11:39,073 --> 00:11:40,992
to put your priesthood
into practice...
103
00:11:41,284 --> 00:11:42,553
...for the first time
at the altar
104
00:11:42,577 --> 00:11:44,412
in the temple at Jerusalem.
105
00:11:44,662 --> 00:11:46,581
For who will you
be making this offering?
106
00:11:46,831 --> 00:11:48,833
- The Lord.
- Of course.
107
00:11:49,041 --> 00:11:51,586
I meant on whose behalf?
108
00:11:51,794 --> 00:11:55,423
Let that be a secret until tomorrow.
Should be enough to say...
109
00:11:55,673 --> 00:11:58,092
...it will not be a sandal maker
or a shepherd.
110
00:12:18,654 --> 00:12:20,907
You've been watching me again,
haven't you?
111
00:12:21,115 --> 00:12:23,159
- No. I was...
- Did you know...
112
00:12:23,409 --> 00:12:26,204
...it's proper to announce yourself
when making a visit?
113
00:12:34,712 --> 00:12:38,090
Wish I had half the boldness
you have.
114
00:12:39,383 --> 00:12:42,136
That's why we make
such a good couple.
115
00:12:42,929 --> 00:12:45,306
You can rely upon my boldness...
116
00:12:45,765 --> 00:12:47,975
...and I can rely upon
your sweetness.
117
00:12:49,518 --> 00:12:52,772
I'm going to perform
my first offering at the temple...
118
00:12:53,064 --> 00:12:55,316
...in Jerusalem.
119
00:12:55,566 --> 00:12:57,610
Come and tell my father.
He will be so proud.
120
00:12:57,860 --> 00:13:01,072
No, no. I promised my father
I'd be home before sunset.
121
00:13:01,322 --> 00:13:04,700
- But you had to see me, huh?
- But I had to see you.
122
00:13:07,411 --> 00:13:08,871
- I'm late.
- Come back later.
123
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:10,164
Yes.
124
00:13:10,414 --> 00:13:13,209
And next time,
let me know when you get here.
125
00:13:16,629 --> 00:13:18,631
Blessed is the Lord...
126
00:13:18,923 --> 00:13:20,800
...who has sanctified
the day of the Sabbath.
127
00:13:21,092 --> 00:13:23,844
To our Lord, and the king of Judah.
128
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,140
At least King Josiah stood up
to the Egyptians at Megiddo.
129
00:13:28,391 --> 00:13:30,017
God rest his soul.
130
00:13:30,268 --> 00:13:33,771
Now his son Jehoiakim
lays down for them.
131
00:13:34,021 --> 00:13:38,317
Babylon arms itself on one side,
and Egypt on the other.
132
00:13:39,068 --> 00:13:42,196
Instead of taking action,
we spend our time...
133
00:13:42,446 --> 00:13:46,659
...glorifying the past
without consideration for the future.
134
00:13:46,909 --> 00:13:48,744
We'll be crushed again.
135
00:13:48,953 --> 00:13:52,540
- Judah must remain independent.
- It is the Sabbath.
136
00:13:53,582 --> 00:13:56,877
God rested on this day.
Can we not as well?
137
00:14:02,008 --> 00:14:04,343
Isaac, why do you...?
138
00:14:04,593 --> 00:14:06,053
Father?
139
00:14:07,722 --> 00:14:09,890
I'd like to take a bride.
140
00:14:11,058 --> 00:14:13,394
Does this bride have a name?
141
00:14:13,644 --> 00:14:14,979
Judith.
142
00:14:16,564 --> 00:14:18,816
- So that's why you were late.
- Yes.
143
00:14:19,066 --> 00:14:21,777
Judith comes from a fine family,
my son.
144
00:14:22,028 --> 00:14:24,238
You have my blessing,
if you seek it.
145
00:14:24,530 --> 00:14:29,201
Speak to Judith's father and seek his.
And then we can all celebrate.
146
00:14:29,785 --> 00:14:32,038
Our son has an announcement
to make.
147
00:15:05,237 --> 00:15:07,531
- Come.
- Why are the king's men here?
148
00:15:07,782 --> 00:15:09,784
I just wanna hear
what they're saying.
149
00:15:11,952 --> 00:15:16,916
I know in two days' time,
the king will give his judgment.
150
00:15:17,083 --> 00:15:19,710
But I wanna give you a chance.
151
00:15:20,544 --> 00:15:24,882
I will pay the debt in your place...
152
00:15:25,091 --> 00:15:27,301
...but I want your daughter in return.
153
00:15:27,551 --> 00:15:30,429
I prefer slavery
a hundred times over.
154
00:15:30,638 --> 00:15:32,556
Think about it, old man.
155
00:15:32,848 --> 00:15:34,725
Slavery for you
and your entire family?
156
00:15:34,975 --> 00:15:36,894
- I should...
- Get out.
157
00:15:37,186 --> 00:15:38,646
Let's see how proud you are...
158
00:15:38,896 --> 00:15:41,273
...when you are cleaning Ezer's floor
with your tongue.
159
00:15:41,524 --> 00:15:42,983
Get out.
160
00:15:43,609 --> 00:15:45,945
How long has your father
been in trouble?
161
00:15:46,987 --> 00:15:49,031
I don't know.
162
00:15:50,741 --> 00:15:52,701
We'll have to find some way
to help him.
163
00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:54,286
Let's go.
164
00:15:57,540 --> 00:16:00,751
My father is a very important man,
you know.
165
00:16:01,001 --> 00:16:03,921
Anyone who can arrange for their
humble son to perform great acts...
166
00:16:04,213 --> 00:16:08,008
...for the finest people in Jerusalem
must be very important.
167
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:11,762
Well, I am sure
the king will be just in his judgment...
168
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:15,015
...and allow your father the time
he needs to pay back his debt.
169
00:16:15,266 --> 00:16:17,435
There's no need to worry.
170
00:16:20,146 --> 00:16:22,857
After the king has expressed
his judgment...
171
00:16:23,399 --> 00:16:25,568
...I will help Judith's
family pay their debt,
172
00:16:25,776 --> 00:16:27,445
and I will marry her. Now, surely,
173
00:16:27,653 --> 00:16:29,822
- You must have friends who can help.
- Of course.
174
00:16:30,030 --> 00:16:32,741
We will contact
whoever is necessary.
175
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:34,285
Understand, my son, that if...
176
00:16:34,535 --> 00:16:37,079
- And I said "if."
- -things do not turn out...
177
00:16:37,371 --> 00:16:39,915
...as we would hope
for Judith and her family...
178
00:16:40,124 --> 00:16:43,544
...according to the law, debtors will
only have to serve seven years.
179
00:16:43,836 --> 00:16:45,546
- Seven years?
- Seven years.
180
00:16:45,796 --> 00:16:48,340
For those to whom they are in debt,
and then they shall go free.
181
00:16:48,591 --> 00:16:50,384
You're not suggesting
this will happen?
182
00:16:50,634 --> 00:16:53,596
I leave it to the prophets
to foretell the future.
183
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:55,890
I can only say
what is happening today.
184
00:16:56,098 --> 00:16:57,933
And today
my son must prepare himself...
185
00:16:58,184 --> 00:17:00,519
...for the most important moment
in his life:
186
00:17:00,769 --> 00:17:03,397
His first sacrifice
for the one true God
187
00:17:03,606 --> 00:17:05,024
in Jerusalem.
188
00:17:45,231 --> 00:17:46,774
Jeremiah.
189
00:17:49,193 --> 00:17:51,737
Look carefully, Jeremiah.
190
00:17:52,905 --> 00:17:53,948
What do you see?
191
00:17:58,327 --> 00:18:01,747
- I see an almond tree.
- What is its season?
192
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:08,003
It is ready to sprout.
193
00:18:08,254 --> 00:18:09,964
You have seen well.
194
00:18:10,214 --> 00:18:13,384
As this tree
is in a hurry to sprout...
195
00:18:13,634 --> 00:18:17,012
...80 God is in a hurry
to carry out his word.
196
00:18:17,555 --> 00:18:20,391
It is time for you to speak.
197
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:25,771
Stand and tell them everything
as I command.
198
00:18:27,731 --> 00:18:28,816
Who are you?
199
00:18:29,149 --> 00:18:31,193
It is time, Jeremiah.
200
00:18:32,987 --> 00:18:34,196
No.
201
00:18:35,656 --> 00:18:37,199
Leave me be.
202
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:40,786
I'm just a simple man.
203
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:42,788
It is time.
204
00:18:43,956 --> 00:18:45,291
No.
205
00:18:46,125 --> 00:18:47,501
No.
206
00:18:50,004 --> 00:18:51,171
No.
207
00:18:56,176 --> 00:18:59,221
We will remain in the city
until tomorrow in the temple.
208
00:18:59,513 --> 00:19:02,224
Today it is Ephraim's turn.
Tomorrow it will be yours.
209
00:19:02,474 --> 00:19:04,560
But I want you
to observe today's sacrifice...
210
00:19:04,810 --> 00:19:06,530
...80 that tomorrow
you'll be more prepared.
211
00:19:06,729 --> 00:19:09,457
Are you going to tell us now, my lord,
what great people we will serve?
212
00:19:09,481 --> 00:19:12,901
All I can say is there will be people
of consequence at the temple.
213
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:15,779
Spices for everybody.
214
00:19:16,030 --> 00:19:17,906
I'm going to hear
the king's judgment.
215
00:19:18,741 --> 00:19:21,577
Wanna make sure everything
goes well for Judith and her family.
216
00:19:21,827 --> 00:19:23,871
I will be waiting for you
at the temple.
217
00:19:24,163 --> 00:19:25,664
My son, it's very important to me
218
00:19:25,873 --> 00:19:27,309
that you should
be properly prepared...
219
00:19:27,333 --> 00:19:29,251
...to offer the sacrifice tomorrow.
220
00:19:29,501 --> 00:19:32,296
- Please don't be late.
- I understand, Father.
221
00:19:32,546 --> 00:19:34,340
Prepare well, Ephraim.
You will need it.
222
00:19:34,590 --> 00:19:35,924
I'll come with you.
223
00:19:36,634 --> 00:19:38,093
God knows you need protection.
224
00:19:38,344 --> 00:19:40,929
Don't worry, my lord.
We'll be back in time.
225
00:19:48,646 --> 00:19:52,232
Everything will be all right.
Justice will be served.
226
00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:57,988
Well, there is only one thing.
227
00:19:59,031 --> 00:20:00,783
- Are you worried?
- It's all right.
228
00:20:05,245 --> 00:20:07,165
Do you know that man
next to the king?
229
00:20:07,289 --> 00:20:09,958
It is Mattaniah,
the king's brother. Quiet.
230
00:20:10,376 --> 00:20:13,504
This is a time of great prosperity
for our people.
231
00:20:14,046 --> 00:20:16,882
A prosperity that comes
as a consequence of the trust...
232
00:20:17,091 --> 00:20:20,177
...between those engaged
in any transaction.
233
00:20:20,886 --> 00:20:24,765
A simple trust that what is borrowed
will be replaced.
234
00:20:25,015 --> 00:20:27,309
When that trust is violated...
235
00:20:27,768 --> 00:20:31,105
...the prosperity of our people
is threatened.
236
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,525
He who violates that trust
must be punished.
237
00:20:34,817 --> 00:20:39,071
It is our judgment that Eliakim,
in refusing to pay his debt...
238
00:20:39,321 --> 00:20:41,448
...should surrender his property
and rights...
239
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:44,910
...and both Eliakim and his family
will henceforward serve...
240
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,581
...and be subject to the demands
of Ezer, his creditor.
241
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:53,585
- No. No.
- Justice is done, Ezer.
242
00:20:53,836 --> 00:20:55,546
Thank you for your help, Micaiah.
243
00:21:08,809 --> 00:21:12,020
Let them take the men.
Spare the girl that I may have her.
244
00:21:12,813 --> 00:21:14,815
Come on. We have to go.
Move along.
245
00:21:15,065 --> 00:21:17,025
- Quickly. Come now.
- You leave her.
246
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:20,571
Come, Jeremiah.
We must get to the temple.
247
00:21:20,821 --> 00:21:22,698
Yes. I'll meet you there.
248
00:21:23,699 --> 00:21:25,909
First, I must speak
with Judith's father.
249
00:21:33,500 --> 00:21:34,752
It will be all right.
250
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,421
Strong. You're very strong.
251
00:21:38,422 --> 00:21:39,673
Do you have relatives here?
252
00:21:39,965 --> 00:21:42,165
Yeah, my father's cousins.
They traveled from Bahurim...
253
00:21:42,259 --> 00:21:43,361
...to show us their support.
254
00:21:43,385 --> 00:21:45,145
You must flee.
She must go with them at once.
255
00:21:45,262 --> 00:21:47,848
- Come.
- I can't leave my father, my family.
256
00:21:48,056 --> 00:21:51,351
- They need my help, especially now.
- Take Judith with you to your home.
257
00:21:51,602 --> 00:21:54,354
If you hurry,
you can get her out of Jerusalem now.
258
00:21:54,605 --> 00:21:57,065
We have enough difficulties.
Please, Jeremiah...
259
00:21:57,274 --> 00:21:59,234
The laws of God will protect you,
God be willing.
260
00:21:59,485 --> 00:22:02,362
They may not hold enough weight
in this world to protect Judith.
261
00:22:02,613 --> 00:22:04,740
There are those who will seize
upon your misfortune...
262
00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:07,701
...and turn it to their advantage
with Judith as their prize.
263
00:22:07,951 --> 00:22:11,079
- How do you know this?
- You must trust me.
264
00:22:13,248 --> 00:22:14,750
Father.
265
00:22:15,959 --> 00:22:18,045
It's the only answer.
266
00:22:18,337 --> 00:22:19,755
Let's go.
267
00:22:20,881 --> 00:22:22,674
Come, Judith.
268
00:22:22,925 --> 00:22:24,134
Go.
269
00:22:25,928 --> 00:22:28,388
I must fulfill my father's wishes
at the temple.
270
00:22:28,639 --> 00:22:30,724
I cannot let him down.
271
00:22:31,016 --> 00:22:32,893
Nor will I let you down.
272
00:22:34,895 --> 00:22:36,980
We must go.
273
00:22:41,276 --> 00:22:42,528
Come on, now. Move along.
274
00:22:44,196 --> 00:22:45,614
Into the cart.
275
00:22:48,325 --> 00:22:50,786
- Leave me.
- All right. All right.
276
00:22:50,994 --> 00:22:53,038
Clear the way. Clear the way.
277
00:22:53,288 --> 00:22:54,540
Come on, now.
278
00:22:54,832 --> 00:22:56,041
Come on.
279
00:23:07,886 --> 00:23:10,556
Offerings for the Lord.
280
00:23:12,766 --> 00:23:14,518
Incense.
281
00:23:14,977 --> 00:23:19,022
There will always be peace
in Jerusalem...
282
00:23:19,314 --> 00:23:21,608
...and prosperity for Judah.
283
00:23:22,067 --> 00:23:26,488
For God has chosen us
as his people.
284
00:23:27,322 --> 00:23:32,578
That is why we gather
at this temple of the Lord.
285
00:23:35,038 --> 00:23:37,457
Offerings for the Lord.
286
00:23:37,708 --> 00:23:39,668
Offerings for the Lord.
287
00:24:02,816 --> 00:24:05,110
Some oils.
288
00:24:06,612 --> 00:24:08,697
Images of gods from the finest clay.
289
00:24:08,947 --> 00:24:13,702
From every country.
Are good for every purpose.
290
00:24:56,995 --> 00:24:59,665
You have seen well, Jeremiah.
291
00:24:59,957 --> 00:25:01,917
You have seen well.
292
00:25:02,626 --> 00:25:04,878
For my people are foolish.
293
00:25:05,128 --> 00:25:08,632
They are skilled in doing evil.
294
00:25:09,132 --> 00:25:13,095
But how to do good,
they know not.
295
00:25:13,345 --> 00:25:18,558
Behold, I have put my words
in your mouth.
296
00:25:20,936 --> 00:25:24,189
You will speak for me, Jeremiah.
297
00:25:45,419 --> 00:25:46,670
Where have you been?
298
00:25:46,962 --> 00:25:48,815
- We were expecting you.
- I know, Father. I'm sorry.
299
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,466
Ephraim was brokenhearted
you weren't here for his offering.
300
00:25:51,717 --> 00:25:54,928
Ephraim was brokenhearted because
his offering was not before the king.
301
00:25:55,137 --> 00:25:58,640
Jeremiah. He told me
about the judgment.
302
00:25:58,890 --> 00:26:01,018
I tried to prepare you
for what to expect.
303
00:26:01,268 --> 00:26:03,270
I have compassion
for Judith and her family.
304
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:04,980
But God will watch over them.
305
00:26:05,272 --> 00:26:07,816
How can he watch over you
if you don't help?
306
00:26:08,025 --> 00:26:09,526
Let's get started.
307
00:26:22,456 --> 00:26:23,457
Son.
308
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:26,043
Come.
309
00:26:32,507 --> 00:26:35,635
- Bring me the vessel.
- Yes, my lord.
310
00:26:39,598 --> 00:26:42,642
- More water.
- See how he comes.
311
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:24,392
It's your turn, Jeremiah.
312
00:27:25,936 --> 00:27:27,229
Come.
313
00:27:32,192 --> 00:27:34,277
More cloths here.
314
00:27:37,072 --> 00:27:38,115
A little higher.
315
00:27:38,949 --> 00:27:41,409
I have the incense, my lord.
316
00:27:46,915 --> 00:27:52,212
- Knife is prepared, my lord.
- They have grown fat and sleek.
317
00:27:52,504 --> 00:27:55,632
They know no bounds
in deeds of wickedness.
318
00:28:04,641 --> 00:28:06,059
Come, come.
319
00:28:28,415 --> 00:28:29,916
They judge not with justice...
320
00:28:30,125 --> 00:28:32,502
...the cause of the fatherless
to make it prosper...
321
00:28:32,752 --> 00:28:34,963
...and they do not defend the rights
of the needy.
322
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:38,717
Shall I not punish them
for these things?
323
00:28:42,012 --> 00:28:44,472
Bring forth the offering.
324
00:28:44,723 --> 00:28:46,516
Yes, my lord.
325
00:28:49,686 --> 00:28:51,396
Jeremiah.
326
00:28:52,105 --> 00:28:55,192
I put my words into your mouth.
327
00:29:00,113 --> 00:29:01,907
Come closer.
328
00:29:05,118 --> 00:29:07,120
What are you doing?
329
00:29:08,955 --> 00:29:10,373
Father.
330
00:29:13,251 --> 00:29:14,294
Jehoiakim.
331
00:29:17,464 --> 00:29:19,174
Mattaniah.
332
00:29:22,886 --> 00:29:23,887
All of you.
333
00:29:28,183 --> 00:29:32,020
Hear the word of the Lord.
334
00:29:34,064 --> 00:29:38,568
Thus says the Lord of Hosts...
335
00:29:38,860 --> 00:29:41,238
...the God of Israel:
336
00:29:41,905 --> 00:29:46,284
"Amend your ways
and your doings...
337
00:29:46,534 --> 00:29:48,578
...and I will let you dwell
in this place.
338
00:29:49,537 --> 00:29:53,541
Do not trust
in these deceptive words.
339
00:29:53,833 --> 00:29:55,335
This...
340
00:29:56,086 --> 00:29:58,546
...is the temple of the Lord.
341
00:29:59,381 --> 00:30:02,926
The temple of the Lord.
342
00:30:03,593 --> 00:30:07,806
Temple of the Lord.
343
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:14,980
For if you truly execute justice,
one with another...
344
00:30:16,147 --> 00:30:18,400
...and if you do not oppress
the alien...
345
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:22,696
...or shed innocent blood
in this place...
346
00:30:22,946 --> 00:30:25,824
...I will let you dwell
in this place...
347
00:30:26,116 --> 00:30:30,537
...in the land I gave of old
to your fathers forever.
348
00:30:31,037 --> 00:30:34,916
You trust in deceptive words
to no avail.
349
00:30:35,125 --> 00:30:41,756
Will you steal, murder,
commit adultery...
350
00:30:42,007 --> 00:30:44,801
...swear falsely,
burn incense to Baal...
351
00:30:45,051 --> 00:30:47,470
...and go after other gods
that you have not known...
352
00:30:47,721 --> 00:30:52,183
...and then come and stand before me
in this house...
353
00:30:52,392 --> 00:30:57,814
...which is called by my name
and say we are delivered...
354
00:30:58,064 --> 00:31:01,776
...only to go on committing
all these abominations?
355
00:31:03,069 --> 00:31:04,946
Behold!
356
00:31:05,155 --> 00:31:08,241
I myself have seen it."
357
00:31:10,744 --> 00:31:13,121
Says the Lord.
358
00:31:16,207 --> 00:31:18,376
He has prophesied.
359
00:31:32,265 --> 00:31:33,892
Hilkiah.
360
00:31:36,227 --> 00:31:38,646
You spoke well of this boy.
361
00:31:38,980 --> 00:31:43,276
But to us, it looks like
he is beside himself with emotion.
362
00:31:44,986 --> 00:31:47,280
You served us well,
and you may return.
363
00:31:47,530 --> 00:31:51,117
But I do not want to see
your son here again.
364
00:31:51,785 --> 00:31:53,078
Understood?
365
00:31:56,956 --> 00:31:59,084
He has been banished.
366
00:31:59,334 --> 00:32:00,919
Banished?
367
00:32:01,127 --> 00:32:03,713
Do not forget what he said.
368
00:32:04,172 --> 00:32:06,049
Yes.
369
00:32:26,694 --> 00:32:29,781
You shall not speak in the name
of the Lord, or you will die.
370
00:32:30,031 --> 00:32:32,117
- Father!
- Do not blaspheme again.
371
00:32:32,409 --> 00:32:34,369
No! No!
372
00:32:38,164 --> 00:32:40,083
No, please.
373
00:32:59,018 --> 00:33:00,437
Father.
374
00:33:02,730 --> 00:33:04,274
Father.
375
00:33:16,077 --> 00:33:17,412
Why didn't you help me?
376
00:33:48,401 --> 00:33:50,069
Jeremiah.
377
00:33:55,575 --> 00:33:57,660
I hear you made
quite an impression yesterday.
378
00:33:57,952 --> 00:33:58,952
I guess I did.
379
00:33:58,995 --> 00:34:01,075
I told you I should've been the one
serving the king.
380
00:34:01,247 --> 00:34:02,749
Would've been wiser.
381
00:34:03,458 --> 00:34:04,459
You're leaving.
382
00:34:05,335 --> 00:34:07,003
Yes.
383
00:34:07,212 --> 00:34:10,548
- What can I do?
- Look after my parents for me.
384
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:14,969
And keep your heart as open
as that scheming brain of yours.
385
00:34:21,392 --> 00:34:23,102
Ephraim.
386
00:34:24,103 --> 00:34:26,481
I'm hearing these voices.
387
00:34:27,106 --> 00:34:29,067
Having these dreams.
388
00:34:29,526 --> 00:34:34,906
I think God himself is calling me
to say these things...
389
00:34:35,156 --> 00:34:37,325
...to do these things.
390
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:42,664
When I was at the altar in Jerusalem,
in front of the king...
391
00:34:43,289 --> 00:34:44,999
...I felt this fire in me...
392
00:34:45,250 --> 00:34:48,670
...as if God himself
was speaking through me.
393
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,381
I don't know how else
these words could've come.
394
00:34:58,137 --> 00:34:59,847
It doesn't matter.
395
00:35:00,181 --> 00:35:01,808
Whatever has happened...
396
00:35:02,058 --> 00:35:04,018
...has led me to do
what you urged me to do.
397
00:35:06,271 --> 00:35:08,356
Take Judith as my wife.
398
00:35:08,648 --> 00:35:10,066
And for that...
399
00:35:10,567 --> 00:35:12,652
...thank you, my friend.
400
00:35:15,154 --> 00:35:16,948
Go with God.
401
00:36:24,641 --> 00:36:26,684
Look carefully, Jeremiah.
402
00:36:27,602 --> 00:36:29,395
What do you see?
403
00:36:33,816 --> 00:36:35,401
An overturned pot.
404
00:36:35,902 --> 00:36:38,071
In what direction?
405
00:36:41,449 --> 00:36:43,076
From north to south.
406
00:36:43,368 --> 00:36:45,620
Out of the north...
407
00:36:45,912 --> 00:36:50,083
...evil shall break forth
upon all the inhabitants of the land...
408
00:36:50,333 --> 00:36:54,128
...and I will utter my judgments
against all the cities of Judah...
409
00:36:54,420 --> 00:36:58,841
...for all their wickedness
in forsaking me.
410
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:04,389
Please, Lord, leave me be.
411
00:37:08,643 --> 00:37:11,688
Say to them everything
that I command you.
412
00:37:11,979 --> 00:37:13,898
They shall fight against you...
413
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:17,151
...but they shall not prevail
against you.
414
00:37:17,402 --> 00:37:21,114
For I am with you
to deliver you.
415
00:37:21,364 --> 00:37:22,907
Not me, Lord.
416
00:37:23,157 --> 00:37:24,492
Not me.
417
00:37:24,742 --> 00:37:26,327
I served you in Jerusalem.
418
00:37:26,577 --> 00:37:29,580
Please. Now I beg you,
let me go my own way.
419
00:37:29,831 --> 00:37:32,375
You shall not take a wife...
420
00:37:32,667 --> 00:37:35,420
...-nor shall you have sons
or daughters.
421
00:37:35,628 --> 00:37:36,963
What?
422
00:37:38,381 --> 00:37:39,382
Why?
423
00:37:39,632 --> 00:37:43,970
For all the children and the mothers
shall die a grievous death...
424
00:37:44,178 --> 00:37:45,930
...in this land...
425
00:37:46,514 --> 00:37:50,518
...because their fathers
have not kept my law.
426
00:37:50,810 --> 00:37:53,020
Lord, you cannot burden me
with this!
427
00:37:53,229 --> 00:37:54,229
Go...
428
00:37:54,689 --> 00:37:57,859
...and proclaim it
in the hearing of Jerusalem.
429
00:37:58,067 --> 00:37:59,986
You cannot ask me
to return to Jerusalem.
430
00:38:00,653 --> 00:38:01,946
They will stone me.
431
00:38:02,196 --> 00:38:04,657
The king will have me banished!
432
00:38:13,082 --> 00:38:15,543
Give me a sign, Lord, please.
433
00:38:16,502 --> 00:38:19,547
So they...
So they will believe me.
434
00:38:24,510 --> 00:38:26,888
Do not make me do this alone.
435
00:38:33,519 --> 00:38:38,065
Lord, do not make me
do this alone.
436
00:38:41,861 --> 00:38:43,780
I'm gonna get you.
437
00:39:30,284 --> 00:39:31,285
Jeremiah?
438
00:39:35,039 --> 00:39:36,415
Jeremiah?
439
00:39:37,959 --> 00:39:39,001
I am Baruch...
440
00:39:41,087 --> 00:39:42,964
...the scribe at the temple.
441
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:45,842
I heard you were going to Bahurim.
I had to find you.
442
00:39:47,844 --> 00:39:49,011
I heard you speak.
443
00:39:50,513 --> 00:39:52,849
Those words were not your own.
444
00:39:53,099 --> 00:39:57,019
No one can speak like that
unless they're inspired by God.
445
00:39:57,603 --> 00:39:59,021
You are a prophet.
446
00:39:59,272 --> 00:40:01,357
And I want to stay with you.
447
00:40:01,649 --> 00:40:04,527
I'm tired of the hypocrisy
in Jerusalem.
448
00:40:16,581 --> 00:40:20,001
It will be a hard life, Baruch. The Lord
has ordered me back to Jerusalem.
449
00:40:20,209 --> 00:40:22,211
- To risk your life?
- No, to proclaim his word.
450
00:40:22,420 --> 00:40:25,464
If we could get the king and
the whole house of Judah to listen...
451
00:40:25,715 --> 00:40:27,884
...he will forgive them. Come.
452
00:40:29,802 --> 00:40:30,845
What have you brought?
453
00:40:31,053 --> 00:40:33,014
- My scrolls.
- Let's write God's words.
454
00:40:34,390 --> 00:40:36,934
You'll read them in the temple
in Jerusalem.
455
00:40:37,643 --> 00:40:39,312
This saith the Lord:
456
00:40:39,604 --> 00:40:44,150
"Execute ye judgment
and righteousness...
457
00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:48,362
...and deliver the spoiled
out of the hand of the oppressor.
458
00:40:48,613 --> 00:40:50,031
And do no wrong.
459
00:40:50,281 --> 00:40:55,244
Do no violence to the stranger,
the fatherless, the widow.
460
00:40:55,494 --> 00:40:58,789
Neither shed innocent blood
in this place.
461
00:40:58,998 --> 00:41:01,125
For if ye do
this thing indeed...
462
00:41:01,375 --> 00:41:04,045
...then shall there enter in
by the gates of this house...
463
00:41:04,295 --> 00:41:07,632
...kings sitting upon the throne
of David.
464
00:41:07,965 --> 00:41:13,888
But if ye will not hear these words,
I swear by myself,"” saith the Lord,
465
00:41:14,096 --> 00:41:16,724
"that the king of Babylon
shall come...
466
00:41:17,266 --> 00:41:20,144
...and he shall
destroy this country."
467
00:41:20,394 --> 00:41:23,230
This is an outrage.
468
00:41:23,481 --> 00:41:25,733
We must speak to the king.
469
00:41:26,317 --> 00:41:28,402
Baruch, we wish to hear.
470
00:41:29,445 --> 00:41:30,988
Shall we leave?
471
00:41:31,197 --> 00:41:33,115
Let's talk further of this.
472
00:41:37,411 --> 00:41:39,997
- What is your name?
- Baruch.
473
00:41:40,289 --> 00:41:42,625
Jeremiah dictated
these words to you, didn't he?
474
00:41:44,126 --> 00:41:45,836
- Yes.
- Baruch...
475
00:41:46,045 --> 00:41:48,464
...we believe that God
has spoken to Jeremiah.
476
00:41:49,090 --> 00:41:52,551
We want you to give us the scroll
so that we may read it to the king...
477
00:41:52,885 --> 00:41:54,929
...and convince him
Jeremiah speaks the truth.
478
00:41:55,179 --> 00:41:57,974
But you must understand,
if we fail...
479
00:41:58,224 --> 00:42:01,227
...there are those who will want
Jeremiah killed.
480
00:42:01,477 --> 00:42:02,603
And maybe you too.
481
00:42:07,942 --> 00:42:10,236
He said the king of Babylon
will come and destroy us?
482
00:42:11,028 --> 00:42:14,573
He said this would come to pass
only if we didn't mend our ways...
483
00:42:14,865 --> 00:42:15,945
...in the eyes of the Lord.
484
00:42:16,242 --> 00:42:18,869
Let me see this document
he was reading.
485
00:42:19,245 --> 00:42:20,830
Do you realize what he said?
486
00:42:21,038 --> 00:42:23,958
The king of Babylon
shall destroy this country?
487
00:42:24,166 --> 00:42:25,543
That's treason.
488
00:42:25,793 --> 00:42:29,171
As long as the Egyptians protect us, it
will be very difficult for that to happen.
489
00:42:29,380 --> 00:42:31,924
Brother, with the
Babylonians threatening...
490
00:42:32,133 --> 00:42:35,219
...our people need to be reminded
of their strengths, not their weaknesses.
491
00:42:35,469 --> 00:42:37,221
And Hilkiah's son,
this Jeremiah...
492
00:42:37,471 --> 00:42:40,474
...claims to speak for the Lord?
A prophet?
493
00:42:40,725 --> 00:42:42,101
My lord...
494
00:42:50,067 --> 00:42:51,527
We must go.
495
00:42:54,071 --> 00:42:55,823
They didn't listen.
496
00:42:56,073 --> 00:42:58,034
The king burned the scroll.
497
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:02,121
We must try again.
498
00:43:03,122 --> 00:43:05,082
Do you know
what that would mean?
499
00:43:08,169 --> 00:43:09,920
The Lord said he is with me.
500
00:43:10,129 --> 00:43:11,547
With us.
501
00:43:12,048 --> 00:43:13,632
He will deliver us.
502
00:43:13,883 --> 00:43:15,926
How can you be sure?
503
00:43:37,364 --> 00:43:39,408
I have prophesied.
504
00:43:41,035 --> 00:43:42,995
The Babylonians are here...
505
00:43:43,204 --> 00:43:45,289
...just as the Lord had said.
506
00:43:47,249 --> 00:43:50,586
We must find a safe haven
until we've written down a new scroll.
507
00:43:50,836 --> 00:43:53,380
Then we can continue
the work of the Lord.
508
00:43:54,090 --> 00:43:57,551
May be already too late for the king,
but not for Jerusalem. Come.
509
00:44:47,852 --> 00:44:49,103
Father.
510
00:44:53,149 --> 00:44:54,942
Say your prayers
at your uncle's bedside.
511
00:44:55,192 --> 00:44:57,027
- Go comfort your cousin.
- Yes, Father.
512
00:44:57,278 --> 00:44:58,612
Come.
513
00:45:01,282 --> 00:45:03,534
He is very weak, boys.
514
00:45:05,786 --> 00:45:08,205
The people of Judah
need your help.
515
00:45:08,497 --> 00:45:12,001
Jehoiakim is far too ill
to deal with the Babylonians.
516
00:45:12,251 --> 00:45:14,712
Do you think the people
would have me as their king?
517
00:45:14,962 --> 00:45:18,966
If not you, who?
Jehoiakin, your brother's son?
518
00:45:19,341 --> 00:45:22,636
Nebuchadnezzar might just as well
proclaim himself as king of Judah.
519
00:45:22,928 --> 00:45:24,972
My brother was born to be king.
520
00:45:30,603 --> 00:45:32,605
I never thought
he would go so soon.
521
00:45:32,813 --> 00:45:35,482
It is a man's willingness
to answer God's calling...
522
00:45:35,774 --> 00:45:37,985
...that tests the man.
523
00:45:43,532 --> 00:45:46,160
I will send an embassy of submission
to King Nebuchadnezzar.
524
00:45:46,452 --> 00:45:49,455
And you must persuade
your brother's son to turn himself in...
525
00:45:49,705 --> 00:45:52,833
...along with his mother
and all those of his family.
526
00:45:53,751 --> 00:45:55,002
To save the city.
527
00:45:55,586 --> 00:45:57,838
The Babylonians
will deport them.
528
00:45:58,130 --> 00:46:02,676
And they will surely proclaim you
as the new king of Judah.
529
00:46:08,057 --> 00:46:10,976
Only after the old one's spirit
departs us.
530
00:46:54,019 --> 00:46:56,730
I'm sorry to hear
about your father's death.
531
00:46:57,523 --> 00:47:00,901
But you have been wise
to turn yourself over to me.
532
00:47:01,193 --> 00:47:03,570
You will benefit from this.
533
00:47:04,113 --> 00:47:08,242
You will be my lifelong guest
at the court in Babylon.
534
00:47:19,169 --> 00:47:21,130
Now, Mattaniah.
535
00:47:29,138 --> 00:47:31,098
I thank you for your gifts...
536
00:47:31,557 --> 00:47:34,059
...and for the service
you have done me.
537
00:47:34,727 --> 00:47:36,020
You...
538
00:47:36,937 --> 00:47:38,397
...are the new king of Judah.
539
00:47:42,568 --> 00:47:44,778
Your name will be...
540
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:47,072
...Zedekiah.
541
00:47:50,909 --> 00:47:53,829
Of course,
to maintain our favor...
542
00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:57,541
...my ministers will determine
the gold tribute...
543
00:47:57,791 --> 00:48:01,086
...we will expect as an expression
of your friendship...
544
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,630
...each year.
545
00:48:15,017 --> 00:48:17,061
One more thing.
546
00:48:17,561 --> 00:48:21,315
I will take Jehoiakim's ministers
with me to Babylon...
547
00:48:21,815 --> 00:48:24,777
...together with many of the authorities
of Jerusalem...
548
00:48:25,027 --> 00:48:30,115
...with the exception of those you
choose to help you govern the city.
549
00:48:32,868 --> 00:48:35,913
In exchange for that service...
550
00:48:36,747 --> 00:48:39,583
...we will expect
another sign...
551
00:48:39,833 --> 00:48:40,918
...of friendship.
552
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,452
You have acted wisely, my king.
553
00:49:15,702 --> 00:49:19,123
Peace has been restored
to the kingdom of Judah.
554
00:49:19,373 --> 00:49:22,418
And the Babylonians
did not destroy our city.
555
00:49:22,668 --> 00:49:24,253
Exactly.
556
00:49:25,087 --> 00:49:26,880
You don't have to listen
to those madmen...
557
00:49:27,089 --> 00:49:28,966
...that think of themselves
as prophets.
558
00:49:58,954 --> 00:50:00,539
It's time to return
to Jerusalem.
559
00:50:00,789 --> 00:50:04,168
Perhaps the new king will listen.
King Zedekiah should feel secure now.
560
00:50:04,460 --> 00:50:07,921
- It should be safe for us to go.
- I will go alone.
561
00:50:08,130 --> 00:50:11,967
- Why?
- Because it is my turn to take the risk.
562
00:50:12,176 --> 00:50:14,896
And I don't want both of us to suffer
the same fate at the same time.
563
00:50:14,970 --> 00:50:18,640
King, the tribute to Babylon
is madness.
564
00:50:18,891 --> 00:50:20,642
Our only hope...
565
00:50:20,893 --> 00:50:23,854
...the only hope for your people,
is with Egypt.
566
00:50:24,104 --> 00:50:27,941
No, my lord.
Don't you realize Egypt is finished?
567
00:50:28,192 --> 00:50:30,861
The whole world is in the hands
of the king of Babylon.
568
00:50:31,069 --> 00:50:32,863
I think
we should send ambassadors...
569
00:50:33,071 --> 00:50:35,574
...to beg for mercy
and to reduce the tribute.
570
00:50:35,824 --> 00:50:37,534
Forget the tribute, my lord.
571
00:50:37,826 --> 00:50:40,037
If you want to be free,
you must join with Egypt.
572
00:50:40,287 --> 00:50:42,873
Nebuchadnezzar
is far away again.
573
00:50:43,123 --> 00:50:46,043
He will not ask for tribute.
He will accept some territory...
574
00:50:46,251 --> 00:50:47,961
...where he can
put up a garrison.
575
00:50:50,506 --> 00:50:55,969
I think we will cease
paying tribute to Babylon.
576
00:50:56,178 --> 00:50:58,555
- Babylon will...
- We can take advantage of the fact...
577
00:50:58,805 --> 00:51:00,974
...that Babylon thinks we're its ally.
578
00:51:02,976 --> 00:51:06,021
Tomorrow, I will send an ambassador
to the pharaoh to sound out...
579
00:51:06,271 --> 00:51:09,399
- ...whether they would help us.
- So now you are party with Egypt?
580
00:51:10,192 --> 00:51:14,655
Well, we have to see if it's less risky
to trust Egypt or Babylon.
581
00:51:14,905 --> 00:51:19,409
If you want to be free,
never mind about Egypt or Babylon.
582
00:51:19,660 --> 00:51:21,662
Turn to God.
583
00:51:22,996 --> 00:51:24,373
Who are you?
584
00:51:25,791 --> 00:51:28,001
It is Hilkiah's son.
585
00:51:29,962 --> 00:51:33,257
So you are the false prophet
I've been hearing about.
586
00:51:33,799 --> 00:51:35,592
My name is Jeremiah.
587
00:51:35,842 --> 00:51:38,804
And I speak only the truth
as God shows it to me.
588
00:51:39,096 --> 00:51:42,224
And God demands you make a fool
of yourself in front of this court?
589
00:51:42,474 --> 00:51:46,603
To show that you must accept
the supremacy of Babylon...
590
00:51:47,354 --> 00:51:50,315
- ...or Jerusalem will be destroyed.
- What?
591
00:51:51,024 --> 00:51:54,111
The yoke of slavery
is upon you...
592
00:51:54,611 --> 00:51:55,988
...and you must concede.
593
00:51:59,449 --> 00:52:01,034
That is outrageous.
594
00:52:01,243 --> 00:52:02,744
He must be a spy.
595
00:52:05,706 --> 00:52:08,542
I could kill you where you stand
for this message of treason.
596
00:52:08,792 --> 00:52:10,627
Thus says the Lord:
597
00:52:10,877 --> 00:52:15,007
"For, lo, I am calling all the tribes
of the kingdoms of the North...
598
00:52:15,340 --> 00:52:18,844
...and I will utter my judgments
against all the cities of Judah...
599
00:52:19,094 --> 00:52:22,014
...for all their wickedness
in forsaking me."
600
00:52:22,514 --> 00:52:25,684
The army of Babylon approaches
to carry out God's plan.
601
00:52:25,934 --> 00:52:28,270
Your army stands ready, my king.
602
00:52:28,770 --> 00:52:30,939
Egypt is strong again
and will join our battle.
603
00:52:31,189 --> 00:52:35,819
If you would turn to God
instead of your generals...
604
00:52:36,069 --> 00:52:38,697
...you would hear him say,
"Deceive not yourselves.
605
00:52:38,947 --> 00:52:41,408
Pharaoh's army,
which has come forth to help you...
606
00:52:41,658 --> 00:52:45,203
...shall return to Egypt,
and Babylon shall come again...
607
00:52:45,454 --> 00:52:48,665
...and fight against this city
and take it and burn it."”
608
00:52:48,957 --> 00:52:49,957
That's blasphemy!
609
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:52,169
God has turned his face
against this city...
610
00:52:52,461 --> 00:52:55,964
...and he shall destroy it with fire
unless you repent!
611
00:53:09,895 --> 00:53:12,773
I am Hananiah!
612
00:53:13,732 --> 00:53:15,901
The Lord says:
613
00:53:16,109 --> 00:53:21,490
"This is how I will break
the yoke of Babylon!"
614
00:53:26,119 --> 00:53:29,539
Thus says
the Lord God of Israel:
615
00:53:34,127 --> 00:53:39,216
"This is how I will break the yoke
of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon...
616
00:53:39,466 --> 00:53:41,968
...from the neck
of all nations...
617
00:53:42,219 --> 00:53:45,430
...within two years."
618
00:53:55,982 --> 00:53:59,903
God has spoken
through his prophet...
619
00:54:00,696 --> 00:54:01,696
...Hananiah.
620
00:54:04,366 --> 00:54:07,202
The Lord has not sent you!
621
00:54:10,664 --> 00:54:12,916
You have broken wooden bars...
622
00:54:13,375 --> 00:54:16,920
...only to forge iron bars
in place of them.
623
00:54:19,881 --> 00:54:22,509
You have made these people
trust in a lie.
624
00:54:23,093 --> 00:54:24,594
Within a year...
625
00:54:24,928 --> 00:54:26,179
...you will be dead.
626
00:54:26,430 --> 00:54:30,892
He has blasphemed! Blasphemer!
627
00:54:31,143 --> 00:54:32,519
And you...
628
00:54:36,022 --> 00:54:38,817
...you will be a slave...
629
00:54:39,192 --> 00:54:40,902
...in Babylon.
630
00:54:41,111 --> 00:54:42,946
Seize him!
631
00:55:05,385 --> 00:55:07,637
Thus says the Lord:
632
00:55:07,888 --> 00:55:09,598
"Behold...
633
00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,684
...I am bringing on Judah...
634
00:55:13,101 --> 00:55:15,896
...and all the inhabitants
of Jerusalem...
635
00:55:16,104 --> 00:55:19,274
...all the evil I have pronounced
against them...
636
00:55:19,566 --> 00:55:23,987
...because I have spoken to them,
and they have not listened.
637
00:55:24,196 --> 00:55:25,447
I have called to them...
638
00:55:26,948 --> 00:55:29,743
...and they have not answered."
639
00:55:46,009 --> 00:55:47,636
You are a fool.
640
00:55:49,721 --> 00:55:51,556
A fool.
641
00:56:35,767 --> 00:56:38,270
Babylonians! Babylonians!
642
00:56:39,145 --> 00:56:42,899
The Babylonian army
is returning!
643
00:56:43,525 --> 00:56:46,278
Babylonians!
644
00:56:46,528 --> 00:56:51,157
War! War!
The army of Babylon is returning!
645
00:56:52,909 --> 00:56:54,911
Your prophecy was true.
646
00:56:55,662 --> 00:56:58,206
The Babylonians are coming.
647
00:56:58,915 --> 00:57:00,458
How far away
is the Babylonian army?
648
00:57:00,709 --> 00:57:03,461
- About five days away.
- There's no time to waste.
649
00:57:03,962 --> 00:57:07,299
Spread the word,
when their army arrives...
650
00:57:07,549 --> 00:57:10,135
...everyone must go out
and surrender to them.
651
00:57:10,385 --> 00:57:15,015
It is God's will. Surrender to him,
and their lives will be saved.
652
00:57:15,473 --> 00:57:18,977
- What can I do for you, Jeremiah?
- Be careful.
653
00:57:19,185 --> 00:57:23,398
It appears our pleas fall on deaf ears
and hardened hearts.
654
00:57:24,691 --> 00:57:27,944
A hardened heart can become
a dangerous weapon.
655
00:57:28,695 --> 00:57:30,614
He said it would come to pass,
and it has.
656
00:57:30,864 --> 00:57:32,866
The Egyptians are mounting
a counterattack...
657
00:57:33,074 --> 00:57:34,784
...that will deter
the Babylonians.
658
00:57:35,035 --> 00:57:38,371
But Jeremiah's words inflame
the people with false concerns.
659
00:57:38,580 --> 00:57:42,709
All of what you say is based on your
belief that Jeremiah is a false prophet.
660
00:57:43,835 --> 00:57:45,545
What if you are wrong?
661
00:57:45,795 --> 00:57:47,881
Why would God send a prophet
from the wilderness...
662
00:57:48,131 --> 00:57:51,134
...when you are surrounded
by schooled priests?
663
00:57:51,426 --> 00:57:54,429
Why would he destroy
his own people?
664
00:57:54,721 --> 00:57:57,891
Why would he accuse you
of injustices?
665
00:58:01,728 --> 00:58:03,146
Elishama...
666
00:58:03,605 --> 00:58:05,315
...you believe this man,
do you not?
667
00:58:06,942 --> 00:58:09,402
I remain unsure, Your Majesty.
668
00:58:09,653 --> 00:58:12,697
But there is a growing number
of citizens who...
669
00:58:12,948 --> 00:58:14,449
...don't share my doubts.
670
00:58:19,955 --> 00:58:21,289
My king.
671
00:58:24,668 --> 00:58:26,211
You have a mighty army...
672
00:58:26,503 --> 00:58:29,673
...but you must not fight
the Babylonians.
673
00:58:30,006 --> 00:58:31,591
It is Jeremiah's prophecy...
674
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:33,343
...you must lay down
your swords.
675
00:58:33,551 --> 00:58:35,762
You must open your hearts
to Babylon.
676
00:58:36,012 --> 00:58:40,392
For only by surrender
can we implement God's will.
677
00:58:40,684 --> 00:58:44,521
I will love thee, O Lord,
my strength.
678
00:58:44,771 --> 00:58:47,691
I will love thee, O Lord,
my strength.
679
00:58:47,983 --> 00:58:53,488
In my distress I call upon the Lord
and cry unto my God.
680
00:58:53,738 --> 00:58:57,200
In my distress,
I call upon my Lord.
681
00:58:57,492 --> 00:58:59,703
And cry unto my God.
682
00:58:59,995 --> 00:59:01,913
And cry unto my God.
683
00:59:02,205 --> 00:59:05,041
He heard my voice
out of his temple.
684
00:59:05,250 --> 00:59:08,003
He heard my voice
out of his temple.
685
00:59:08,253 --> 00:59:11,172
And my cry came before him
even unto his ears.
686
00:59:11,423 --> 00:59:14,884
If God finds my rule unjust...
687
00:59:15,135 --> 00:59:18,013
...then I must act
to beg his mercy.
688
00:59:19,055 --> 00:59:23,351
I am declaring all the slaves of Israel
free as of this moment.
689
00:59:34,779 --> 00:59:35,905
It is not possible.
690
00:59:36,114 --> 00:59:39,034
Your Majesty
is making a grave mistake.
691
00:59:39,784 --> 00:59:41,494
Many people depend upon
the slaves to...
692
00:59:41,745 --> 00:59:44,831
I did not ask for your opinion,
General Shaphan.
693
00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:48,376
It shall be done,
and it shall be done immediately.
694
00:59:50,879 --> 00:59:56,259
If the army of Babylon arrives,
God shall find an Israel without slaves.
695
00:59:56,509 --> 00:59:57,886
Do you understand?
696
01:00:10,190 --> 01:00:14,110
He finally makes a decision,
and this is the decision he makes.
697
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:18,364
A guard reports
the king freed Jeremiah this morning.
698
01:00:18,573 --> 01:00:21,910
- What?
- He has shaken the king's confidence.
699
01:00:22,118 --> 01:00:24,954
Imagine what he could do
to our country.
700
01:00:25,163 --> 01:00:29,542
That prophet
does not work for God.
701
01:00:29,793 --> 01:00:31,878
He works for Babylon.
702
01:00:39,177 --> 01:00:41,554
- Jeremiah.
- Jeremiah.
703
01:00:51,940 --> 01:00:53,983
The king has freed the slaves.
704
01:00:55,235 --> 01:00:59,072
You're free to return
to your family, your home.
705
01:01:13,670 --> 01:01:16,005
But what prompted
this change of heart?
706
01:01:17,215 --> 01:01:20,051
That is between
God and the king.
707
01:01:20,301 --> 01:01:22,846
There are those who say
it's because of your preaching.
708
01:01:23,054 --> 01:01:27,725
You see? Your words have even
reached us here in Bahurim.
709
01:01:29,435 --> 01:01:32,188
We will leave tomorrow
first thing in the morning.
710
01:01:34,774 --> 01:01:36,359
I'm afraid...
711
01:01:37,110 --> 01:01:38,444
I'm afraid I can't go with you.
712
01:01:39,112 --> 01:01:40,947
Jeremiah?
713
01:01:41,406 --> 01:01:42,407
Why?
714
01:01:43,658 --> 01:01:46,161
I don't mean to doubt
your concerns in any way...
715
01:01:47,662 --> 01:01:51,583
...but if you go to the king,
tell him your mission is fulfilled.
716
01:01:56,379 --> 01:01:58,381
It is God I serve.
717
01:01:58,798 --> 01:02:00,258
Not the king.
718
01:02:06,389 --> 01:02:10,018
Jeremiah,
you have implemented God's will.
719
01:02:10,226 --> 01:02:13,938
The king has freed the slaves.
Surely this must make a difference.
720
01:02:14,981 --> 01:02:17,192
All of Judah will celebrate...
721
01:02:17,525 --> 01:02:21,446
...and those who seek you harm now
will have no cause to do so.
722
01:02:22,197 --> 01:02:24,824
We can still
have a life together.
723
01:02:39,964 --> 01:02:44,135
We've got so much
to give to each other.
724
01:02:56,898 --> 01:02:57,982
- No. No.
- Don't.
725
01:03:02,111 --> 01:03:04,239
No! No!
726
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:13,665
- No.
- Judith!
727
01:03:13,957 --> 01:03:15,917
No!
728
01:04:07,093 --> 01:04:08,428
How did you...?
729
01:04:08,678 --> 01:04:11,264
Shh. Rest. Rest.
730
01:04:11,514 --> 01:04:14,058
My cousin was able
to arrange this.
731
01:04:14,767 --> 01:04:16,561
You must go.
732
01:04:16,811 --> 01:04:20,064
Look, I've brought you
something to eat.
733
01:04:21,899 --> 01:04:24,694
- I will stay with you.
- No.
734
01:04:25,737 --> 01:04:28,740
You must get your family
out of Jerusalem.
735
01:04:29,032 --> 01:04:32,910
The king's pride
will incite the Babylonians.
736
01:04:33,161 --> 01:04:36,372
God is working through them
to destroy the city.
737
01:04:36,622 --> 01:04:39,876
- But why would he do such a thing?
- Because...
738
01:04:40,126 --> 01:04:43,796
...he has to tear it down
before he can build it up once again.
739
01:04:45,590 --> 01:04:46,883
Go.
740
01:04:48,051 --> 01:04:50,011
Gather your family.
741
01:04:50,261 --> 01:04:52,972
Start your life over.
742
01:04:53,222 --> 01:04:57,643
God will be with you.
He will bless you.
743
01:05:00,271 --> 01:05:01,981
I can't leave you.
744
01:05:02,231 --> 01:05:04,317
I love you, Jeremiah.
745
01:05:04,609 --> 01:05:06,778
And I love you, too.
746
01:05:07,195 --> 01:05:09,447
But God has taught me...
747
01:05:09,781 --> 01:05:12,950
...we cannot always have
what we desire in this world.
748
01:05:14,660 --> 01:05:17,747
Why God has shown me your love
and then not allowed me to have it...
749
01:05:17,997 --> 01:05:21,751
...I don't know.
But I know it is his will.
750
01:05:23,419 --> 01:05:29,217
- I can't go. I will stay.
- Oh, you must go.
751
01:05:29,425 --> 01:05:30,802
I will stay.
752
01:05:33,971 --> 01:05:35,765
Seize her.
753
01:05:36,349 --> 01:05:37,475
Why?
754
01:05:38,309 --> 01:05:40,603
The king has come to his senses.
755
01:05:40,853 --> 01:05:43,106
He has reversed his decision
about slavery.
756
01:05:43,356 --> 01:05:46,484
Because Babylon has turned back?
They will return!
757
01:05:46,734 --> 01:05:49,070
Do not interfere, Jeremiah.
758
01:05:50,113 --> 01:05:51,781
The king has served his God.
759
01:05:52,073 --> 01:05:54,700
Now he has to serve his people.
760
01:05:54,992 --> 01:05:59,914
He has always shown a particular
interest in the daughter of Eliakim.
761
01:06:00,790 --> 01:06:02,542
I think he'll be glad
when he hears...
762
01:06:02,834 --> 01:06:06,129
...that you have been kind enough
to bring her to him.
763
01:06:06,712 --> 01:06:08,214
No.
764
01:06:09,465 --> 01:06:10,842
- No. Let her go!
- Stop him.
765
01:06:11,092 --> 01:06:12,093
- Back!
- Jeremiah.
766
01:06:12,343 --> 01:06:14,011
- Judith!
- No!
767
01:06:20,059 --> 01:06:21,310
No.
768
01:06:21,561 --> 01:06:22,854
No.
769
01:06:23,104 --> 01:06:24,104
No.
770
01:06:24,147 --> 01:06:25,565
No.
771
01:06:25,773 --> 01:06:26,899
Come.
772
01:06:29,068 --> 01:06:30,111
No.
773
01:06:32,196 --> 01:06:34,073
No!
774
01:06:34,615 --> 01:06:37,910
No! No.
775
01:06:40,246 --> 01:06:42,081
No.
776
01:06:42,415 --> 01:06:44,459
No!
777
01:06:46,836 --> 01:06:48,629
God!
778
01:06:49,797 --> 01:06:51,883
God!
779
01:06:52,216 --> 01:06:54,469
God!
780
01:07:10,234 --> 01:07:12,069
Oh, Lord...
781
01:07:14,614 --> 01:07:16,949
...thou hast deceived me.
782
01:07:18,993 --> 01:07:22,330
Thou art stronger than I...
783
01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:25,291
...and hast prevailed.
784
01:07:29,504 --> 01:07:31,923
I will not make
mention of you...
785
01:07:34,258 --> 01:07:36,928
...nor speak anymore
in your name.
786
01:08:12,630 --> 01:08:14,924
Where are your Egyptians now?
787
01:08:15,299 --> 01:08:16,968
We have three or four months.
788
01:08:17,218 --> 01:08:18,844
Perhaps as much as a year.
789
01:08:19,053 --> 01:08:21,597
It will give us time
to appeal to the pharaoh.
790
01:08:22,139 --> 01:08:25,059
"The great Nebuchadnezzar
will be satisfied with some territory...
791
01:08:25,268 --> 01:08:27,562
...where they can
put up a garrison.”
792
01:08:36,153 --> 01:08:37,488
My lord.
793
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:50,793
Drink.
794
01:09:02,805 --> 01:09:03,805
My lord.
795
01:09:54,732 --> 01:09:55,732
Who is there?
796
01:10:04,700 --> 01:10:06,702
I must ask you...
797
01:10:06,994 --> 01:10:09,163
...if you have any word
from the Lord.
798
01:10:15,086 --> 01:10:16,671
Speak!
799
01:10:17,254 --> 01:10:19,048
Don't test my patience.
800
01:10:19,256 --> 01:10:22,009
What have I done
to offend you...
801
01:10:22,510 --> 01:10:25,179
...that would cause you
to put me in prisons?
802
01:10:25,388 --> 01:10:28,307
You said things that caused
rancor among my people.
803
01:10:29,183 --> 01:10:31,143
I spoke the truth.
804
01:10:31,811 --> 01:10:33,145
Where are your prophets now...
805
01:10:33,354 --> 01:10:37,525
...who said Babylon will not come
against you or this land?
806
01:10:37,817 --> 01:10:40,820
I have not called you here
to condemn me.
807
01:10:41,070 --> 01:10:44,198
I have called you here
to speak to me of God's will.
808
01:10:46,867 --> 01:10:49,203
I have nothing further to say.
809
01:10:49,745 --> 01:10:51,205
What?
810
01:10:51,831 --> 01:10:56,419
You, who predicted the Egyptians
would turn back, and they did?
811
01:10:56,836 --> 01:11:00,005
You, who predicted the death of
Hananiah after he smashed the yoke...
812
01:11:00,214 --> 01:11:04,093
...from your neck and who died
within the year just as you said?
813
01:11:04,427 --> 01:11:08,055
You, who prophesied
the Babylonian army would attack...
814
01:11:08,264 --> 01:11:12,184
...and now they lay siege to our city as
they have done for the last two years?
815
01:11:12,643 --> 01:11:17,189
You, the great prophet...
816
01:11:18,524 --> 01:11:20,818
...have nothing further to say?
817
01:11:22,486 --> 01:11:25,406
You had an opportunity
to please the Lord.
818
01:11:29,034 --> 01:11:32,997
But you didn't have the courage
to stand by what you knew to be true.
819
01:11:34,582 --> 01:11:35,708
What?
820
01:11:38,294 --> 01:11:40,755
Oh, forgive me, O Lord.
821
01:11:44,091 --> 01:11:46,385
Is that all you have left?
822
01:11:47,261 --> 01:11:50,639
The ability to grovel
at the feet of your king?
823
01:11:51,807 --> 01:11:54,393
If you want answers...
824
01:11:56,604 --> 01:11:58,647
...turn to God.
825
01:11:59,315 --> 01:12:01,066
Guard!
826
01:12:02,902 --> 01:12:05,196
Take this man...
827
01:12:06,071 --> 01:12:10,159
...this prophet,
out of my sight. Go. Leave.
828
01:12:29,303 --> 01:12:31,347
Thus saith the Lord:
829
01:12:31,764 --> 01:12:33,224
"I will give this city...
830
01:12:33,432 --> 01:12:37,061
...into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar,
king of Babylon...
831
01:12:38,062 --> 01:12:40,481
...and he shall take it.
832
01:12:41,106 --> 01:12:45,152
And the Babylonians
shall set fire to this place...
833
01:12:45,402 --> 01:12:50,324
...for the children of Israel
have turned unto me their back."
834
01:12:57,248 --> 01:12:59,208
- This man must die.
- No!
835
01:12:59,583 --> 01:13:02,044
He is a prophet, my lord.
836
01:13:02,461 --> 01:13:05,381
He is a traitor, my lord.
Traitors die.
837
01:13:05,589 --> 01:13:09,969
Is there nothing else to talk about
other than this prophet?
838
01:13:10,553 --> 01:13:13,222
What about the defense
of Jerusalem?
839
01:13:13,514 --> 01:13:17,268
This concerns the defense
of our city, lord king.
840
01:13:18,435 --> 01:13:21,188
He depresses the soldiers
left within the city walls.
841
01:13:21,397 --> 01:13:23,190
More desert every night.
842
01:13:24,942 --> 01:13:28,696
There was a time when I valued
your counsel, General Shaphan.
843
01:13:29,029 --> 01:13:33,158
And now, my lord, who will you
choose to hold off the Babylonians...
844
01:13:33,367 --> 01:13:35,661
...who threaten our city
from without...
845
01:13:35,911 --> 01:13:39,540
...discontent amongst our people
from within?
846
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:47,089
Do not give the people...
847
01:13:48,173 --> 01:13:52,386
...any cause to act foolishly,
my lord.
848
01:14:02,646 --> 01:14:05,983
"And I will gather them
out of all the countries...
849
01:14:06,191 --> 01:14:08,527
...whither I have driven them
in mine anger...
850
01:14:09,236 --> 01:14:12,448
...and I will bring them again
into this place.
851
01:14:13,866 --> 01:14:18,120
And I will cause them
to dwell safely.”
852
01:14:18,329 --> 01:14:20,497
Make way. Make way. Move aside.
853
01:14:20,748 --> 01:14:23,167
You, come with me.
854
01:14:34,178 --> 01:14:38,265
"And I will make
an everlasting covenant with them.
855
01:14:38,474 --> 01:14:40,309
And they shall be my people.”
856
01:14:41,185 --> 01:14:44,730
No. He is a good man.
857
01:14:45,314 --> 01:14:47,441
Speak this treason no more.
858
01:14:48,859 --> 01:14:52,821
Thus saith the Lord, "Behold...
859
01:14:53,072 --> 01:14:57,159
...I will make thee a terror to thyself
and to all thy friends...
860
01:14:57,493 --> 01:15:00,913
...and they shall die
by the sword of their enemies...
861
01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,040
...and thine eyes
shall behold it!"
862
01:15:09,088 --> 01:15:12,341
God has promised...
863
01:15:12,633 --> 01:15:18,222
...that you shall keep your life
if you go out to the Babylonians.
864
01:15:18,430 --> 01:15:21,892
It is not treason
to follow the will of God.
865
01:15:22,142 --> 01:15:24,603
It is sin not to.
866
01:15:25,312 --> 01:15:27,564
Obey your God now.
867
01:15:34,279 --> 01:15:37,825
Anyone else found
attempting to surrender...
868
01:15:39,952 --> 01:15:41,245
...will be killed.
869
01:16:10,524 --> 01:16:14,361
Preach what you want
down there, prophet.
870
01:16:49,772 --> 01:16:50,814
Your Majesty.
871
01:16:52,066 --> 01:16:56,195
- Yes? What is it?
- It's about the prophet Jeremiah.
872
01:16:59,114 --> 01:17:00,282
What?
873
01:17:01,909 --> 01:17:03,118
Even here?
874
01:17:04,995 --> 01:17:06,038
Who are you?
875
01:17:06,497 --> 01:17:10,292
I am Ebed Melech,
a lowly eunuch, Your Majesty.
876
01:17:12,086 --> 01:17:16,006
Ebed Melech?
Means "servant to the king."
877
01:17:16,507 --> 01:17:20,552
- I serve you gladly, my lord.
- You are one of the few who do.
878
01:17:22,888 --> 01:17:24,556
What do you know of Jeremiah?
879
01:17:25,307 --> 01:17:28,143
I followed the general
and his men.
880
01:17:28,352 --> 01:17:31,063
They lowered Jeremiah
into the cistern.
881
01:17:31,271 --> 01:17:32,773
He will die there.
882
01:17:34,274 --> 01:17:35,274
Good.
883
01:17:39,029 --> 01:17:41,824
If he dies, the wrath of God
will come upon us.
884
01:17:42,032 --> 01:17:43,784
Has it not already?
885
01:17:45,327 --> 01:17:49,331
I could have you beheaded,
yet you persist.
886
01:17:50,165 --> 01:17:51,416
Why?
887
01:17:57,631 --> 01:18:03,846
How is it that you, my eunuch,
hear the voice of God...
888
01:18:04,054 --> 01:18:07,391
...to confirm your faith
in this man, while I...
889
01:18:08,183 --> 01:18:09,893
...king of Judah...
890
01:18:10,769 --> 01:18:14,148
...implore the Lord for a sign,
one word...
891
01:18:16,275 --> 01:18:18,026
...yet hear nothing?
892
01:18:25,284 --> 01:18:27,286
Pull him up.
893
01:18:28,871 --> 01:18:31,582
Have him taken
to the court of the guard.
894
01:18:33,417 --> 01:18:36,128
You tell no one
of this conversation...
895
01:18:37,337 --> 01:18:38,839
...or you will die.
896
01:18:47,639 --> 01:18:50,100
Jeremiah, are you all right?
897
01:18:51,143 --> 01:18:52,352
Yes.
898
01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:14,666
I need to ask you
for one more favor.
899
01:19:28,263 --> 01:19:31,099
I have granted you this audience,
but it'll be your last.
900
01:19:31,308 --> 01:19:34,978
What is of such importance
that you risk your life to see me?
901
01:19:35,270 --> 01:19:36,772
Obey, I beseech thee...
902
01:19:37,064 --> 01:19:40,943
...the voice of the Lord which I speak
unto thee, and your life will be saved...
903
01:19:41,235 --> 01:19:42,736
...and the city
will not be burned.
904
01:19:42,986 --> 01:19:46,031
So now you're speaking
for the Lord again?
905
01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,367
Well, never mind.
Our armies are prepared.
906
01:19:48,659 --> 01:19:52,704
How can you continue to lie to yourself
as well as your people?
907
01:19:52,955 --> 01:19:54,998
Truth is in
the eye of the beholder.
908
01:19:55,249 --> 01:19:59,336
The word of the Lord
which I speak to thee is the truth.
909
01:20:00,754 --> 01:20:04,007
The word of the Lord which
you asked me to seek is silence!
910
01:20:04,883 --> 01:20:09,554
If God has something to say to me,
why does he send you to tell me?
911
01:20:10,055 --> 01:20:12,015
Why would the Lord
speak to you...
912
01:20:12,307 --> 01:20:14,434
...unless you've committed
your life to him?
913
01:20:14,768 --> 01:20:15,768
I have.
914
01:20:23,151 --> 01:20:27,864
Instead of erecting monuments
to false gods...
915
01:20:28,782 --> 01:20:33,328
...make your life a living monument
to the word of God.
916
01:20:34,079 --> 01:20:36,957
It is as my people desire.
917
01:20:37,582 --> 01:20:39,334
You are king.
918
01:20:40,002 --> 01:20:43,130
They look to you for leadership.
919
01:20:43,505 --> 01:20:47,426
Your pursuit of your own pleasure,
wealth and power...
920
01:20:47,634 --> 01:20:52,014
...have taught the people
to trust in false gods.
921
01:20:52,514 --> 01:20:59,021
You have led them to believe
that the one true God is not enough.
922
01:20:59,563 --> 01:21:05,444
You have destroyed the kingdom
God has promised!
923
01:21:16,413 --> 01:21:20,417
It is you
who have scattered God's flock.
924
01:21:22,377 --> 01:21:24,713
You have not attended to them...
925
01:21:26,423 --> 01:21:30,135
...80 God will attend to you
for your evil.
926
01:21:44,566 --> 01:21:47,569
Save me, Jeremiah.
927
01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:50,447
I cannot.
928
01:21:54,284 --> 01:21:57,913
But God will
if you surrender to Babylon.
929
01:21:59,039 --> 01:22:02,584
My people will turn on me if I do.
They'll kill me.
930
01:22:02,793 --> 01:22:04,628
No, no, that will not happen.
931
01:22:05,420 --> 01:22:06,713
You will live...
932
01:22:08,632 --> 01:22:10,967
...but as a slave.
933
01:22:18,392 --> 01:22:20,560
I will never live as a slave.
934
01:22:22,270 --> 01:22:26,441
You are a slave even now.
935
01:22:32,197 --> 01:22:34,950
- Take him back to his cell.
- Yes, my lord.
936
01:22:36,910 --> 01:22:39,996
- Come.
- See that he's not harmed.
937
01:23:08,316 --> 01:23:11,153
It is time, my friend...
938
01:23:11,403 --> 01:23:15,907
...to prepare for the end of our work
and a new beginning.
939
01:23:20,745 --> 01:23:23,290
You there, come with me.
940
01:23:35,594 --> 01:23:37,637
Jeremiah, you called for us?
941
01:23:37,888 --> 01:23:42,350
I wish for you to witness
a business transaction.
942
01:23:43,393 --> 01:23:45,687
The city is under siege
and starving...
943
01:23:45,896 --> 01:23:47,898
...and you're making
business transactions?
944
01:23:54,321 --> 01:23:57,491
This is Hanamel, my cousin.
945
01:24:04,456 --> 01:24:08,168
I... I had a dream.
946
01:24:09,961 --> 01:24:13,131
God told me to say...
947
01:24:13,965 --> 01:24:17,052
...buy my field
that is at Anathoth.
948
01:24:18,053 --> 01:24:20,514
Buy it for yourself, Jeremiah.
949
01:24:30,607 --> 01:24:32,484
You preach that the city
is about to fall...
950
01:24:32,692 --> 01:24:35,403
...and yet you buy land
as if nothing is happening.
951
01:24:36,029 --> 01:24:39,157
Thus saith the Lord:
952
01:24:39,574 --> 01:24:41,785
"I will gather the remnant
of my flock...
953
01:24:41,993 --> 01:24:44,538
...out of all the countries
whither I have driven them...
954
01:24:44,871 --> 01:24:48,458
...and behold,
I will make a new covenant...
955
01:24:48,667 --> 01:24:49,793
...with the house of Israel.
956
01:24:50,043 --> 01:24:54,047
But this one
I shall write in their hearts...
957
01:24:54,297 --> 01:24:59,594
...and I shall be their God,
and they shall be my people.”
958
01:25:26,079 --> 01:25:29,749
My lord, the walls
have been breached. We must flee.
959
01:25:40,510 --> 01:25:42,012
Bring my sons.
960
01:26:07,704 --> 01:26:08,955
Thank you, Father.
961
01:26:09,581 --> 01:26:10,624
Go.
962
01:26:11,249 --> 01:26:12,459
Thank you.
963
01:26:45,116 --> 01:26:46,242
Come, come, my sons!
964
01:26:46,451 --> 01:26:48,787
- Come. Come. Come. Hither.
- Come.
965
01:26:49,621 --> 01:26:52,624
- My lord! My lord!
- Now stay together.
966
01:26:52,916 --> 01:26:56,461
Surround the king!
Surround the king!
967
01:27:00,548 --> 01:27:01,966
Lay down your arms!
968
01:28:24,549 --> 01:28:26,676
You do not bow
to your conqueror?
969
01:28:27,427 --> 01:28:29,971
We bow only for
the one true God.
970
01:28:30,263 --> 01:28:33,016
Your God put you here.
971
01:28:33,767 --> 01:28:38,813
So, in order to
please your God...
972
01:28:39,105 --> 01:28:44,944
...for I do not wish to anger any god,
no matter how minor...
973
01:28:45,153 --> 01:28:47,155
...sentence you to death.
974
01:28:47,906 --> 01:28:50,575
I'm sure that's what
your God wants.
975
01:28:50,950 --> 01:28:53,244
Do you have any final words?
976
01:29:00,543 --> 01:29:02,128
Father.
977
01:29:04,631 --> 01:29:06,841
You have to speak up.
978
01:29:07,133 --> 01:29:09,260
We do things quickly here.
979
01:29:09,511 --> 01:29:13,389
I understand there has been
a prophet in your country...
980
01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:16,768
...who told you
this would come to pass.
981
01:29:16,976 --> 01:29:21,856
- Jeremiah.
- Jeremiah. Yes, that's the one.
982
01:29:23,817 --> 01:29:25,735
What did he say of your future?
983
01:29:26,528 --> 01:29:29,072
He said I would not die
by your hand.
984
01:29:29,322 --> 01:29:31,032
He did?
985
01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:37,205
Well, we must keep you
alive, then, mustn't we?
986
01:29:39,249 --> 01:29:41,960
And who are
those handsome young men...
987
01:29:42,210 --> 01:29:44,712
...who tried to escape with you?
988
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:47,340
My sons.
989
01:29:49,259 --> 01:29:54,556
- No! No! No!
- Father!
990
01:30:00,144 --> 01:30:04,107
This is the last thing
you will ever see.
991
01:30:07,235 --> 01:30:09,195
Alive...
992
01:30:10,238 --> 01:30:12,991
...as your God told you.
993
01:30:21,291 --> 01:30:22,333
No.
994
01:30:22,542 --> 01:30:25,128
No. No. No.
995
01:30:33,303 --> 01:30:35,179
Nebuchadnezzar!
996
01:30:35,388 --> 01:30:37,098
Nebuchadnezzar!
997
01:30:37,390 --> 01:30:40,268
Nebuchadnezzar!
998
01:30:41,686 --> 01:30:42,854
Guards!
999
01:30:47,901 --> 01:30:50,361
Guards! Guards! Guards!
1000
01:30:52,697 --> 01:30:54,449
Help!
1001
01:31:01,164 --> 01:31:02,582
Come on!
1002
01:31:04,792 --> 01:31:07,253
- Are you Jeremiah?
- Yes.
1003
01:31:07,503 --> 01:31:10,840
I am Nebuzaradan,
captain of the guard of Babylon.
1004
01:31:11,090 --> 01:31:12,634
How do you know me?
1005
01:31:12,842 --> 01:31:15,637
Every Babylonian soldiers
know of Jeremiah.
1006
01:31:16,095 --> 01:31:19,933
My king, Nebuchadnezzar,
has commanded me to set you free.
1007
01:31:20,475 --> 01:31:22,018
Free?
1008
01:33:05,955 --> 01:33:08,541
The temple shall be rebuilt.
1009
01:33:11,794 --> 01:33:15,840
And next time, it shall also be built
in the hearts of man.
