Quintus Benedictus Dio.

Having sworn the sacramentum
to Caesar,

the senate,
and the people of Rome

to lawfully fulfill
the conditions of service

as praetor of Galilee
on pain of punishment,

and found guilty of the murder

of a citizen
under your charge,

you are hereby reduced in rank
gradus deiectio,

and relegated to lesser
service, militae mutatio,

to be determined at tribunal.

Congratulations...

Praetor Gaius.

I wanna do something.

I wanna help him.

You know that's not
how grief works.

I'm failing.

Failing at what?

This is not a test.

Being...

you know.

I don't.

Who I'm supposed to be now.

How-- How can I be a rock for
someone in a moment like this?

Thomas doesn't need you
to be a rock right now.

He needs a firm footing
to walk on.

Everything just pulled out
from under him.

This is the way
of all the earth.

For now.

Loss?

You know the truth.

I can't just tell him this is
the way of all the earth.

Then maybe don't
say anything at all.

Would words from Thomas
have helped you

after you found out
about Eden and the baby?

You have experienced loss.

That makes you more able to go
and simply be there with him...

rather than being the rock.

What just happened?

I don't even know
what just happened.

I'm so sorry.

She's gone.
She's gone. She's gone.

I know.

Just...

Just breathe.

I can't.

I can't breathe.

I'm gonna be sick.

Lie back.

What can I do?

What if we'd kept
our eyes on her?

Please don't.

I was holding her hand.

I lost her.

She was murdered, Mary.

Nothing could have stopped
the evil in his heart.

Could he have stopped it?

Ask him.

Someone should be with Thomas.

No, he needs to be alone right now.

How can you be sure?

Believe me.

What I'm about to say,

I can only say
in front of you two.

It's been rattling around
in my head all day.

Careful, James.

Why didn't Jesus do the thing
he did with Jairus' daughter?

I was thinking
the exact same thing.

A single word from him
and we would not be here.

Boys, we vowed to never speak
of what we saw in that house.

To anyone else.

We know what we saw.

I understand where you're
coming from and...

I wrestled with exactly
the same question about Eden,

why he didn't intervene. I...

I resented
his miracles for others.

That seems like
a reasonable response to me.

Yeah.
Just remember

the words of Isaiah.

"'For my thoughts
are not your thoughts,

neither are my ways
your ways,'

declares the Lord.

For as the heavens

are higher than the earth,

so are my ways
higher than your ways,

and my thoughts
than your thoughts."

That doesn't make this
any easier.

Jesus had a reason for allowing
what happened to Eden

that I didn't understand
at the time.

I may never fully
in this lifetime.

But I do know it made me
desperate for him.

You know, Thomas was not
inside Jairus' house.

He does not know
for certain

that Jesus even can bring
someone back from death.

But he believes

that Jesus can do anything,
and why shouldn't he?

And was Jairus' daughter
more important than Ramah?

Than your unborn child?
Enough.

We told Jesus
we'd keep it a secret,

and now, more than ever,

it's clear why Thomas
must never find out.

What if Jesus does it again?
But for someone else.

It would destroy Thomas.

Let's just take this one day
at a time, all right?

Also, we are his students,
not his equals.

I never said
we were his equal...

If we don't know
the answer to something,

we can let Jesus
speak for himself.

You'll write it down.
Matthew will write it down.

And time will reveal the wisdom
hidden in these mysteries.

But I trust in a God
that walks on water.

Yeah.

Seems like we don't do that
enough, huh?

Yeah.

Get some rest.

Remember when we fished?

The older guys used to call you
"James" and me "John"?

They got it right half the time.

And it wasn't just
the old guys.

No.

People used to see us
as the same

because we were
never seen apart.

We did everything together.

We fished together,
we went to the Hammer together.

Yeah.

Synagogue together.

Then we followed Jesus
together.

But when you went on your
mission with Thomas...

you came back and...

it felt like you were closer
to him than me.

Like he was new and interesting
and I was old and boring.

I never meant for that.

I'm sorry.
No. No.

The bond is obvious.

We're doing the most important
thing of our lives, John.

Of anyone's life.

And you're doing it with him.

James, we're all
doing it together.

But some have become
closer in the process.

I admit...

I was jealous of your
friendship with Thomas.

But none of that matters now.

What matters
is that he is in pain...

and he needs you.
Me?

Even if you don't know
what to say,

you just being there

would mean more to him
than any of the rest of us.

That's it.

Just breathe.

It's okay to cry,
but just breathe.

No.

What?

No, it feels wrong to breathe
when she isn't.

I can't relax,
and I don't want to.

We have sent word to Tel Dor
in the Plain of Sharon

that we are on our way
to bring her home.

♪ Oh, yeah ♪

♪ Oh, child, come on in ♪

♪ Jump in the water ♪

♪ Got no trouble
With the mess you been ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

♪ Ooh, ooh ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

♪ Aah ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

♪ Oh, child ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

♪ Got no trouble ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

♪ Oh, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ Walk on the water ♪

Tel Dor.

We're almost there,
just up ahead.

This is only the beginning.

I have no idea
how I'm going to approach Kafni.

You may not have to.

Thomas, I'll talk to them.

Let's stay back here.
We'll take care of it.

No, this is mine to do.

I can't let you
shield me from this.

We'll just ask them what they
want and report back. Okay?

It's all right, Zee.

Thomas,
I will go with you.

We will face them together.

Where is she?

Where is my daughter?

Thomas, stop.

You will proceed no further.

You are forbidden
to enter this town.

Kafni, we are
in mourning with you.

We grieve,
but we are not dangerous.

Then why is my daughter dead?

Dead.
I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

You've already killed me,
Thomas.

And then you
went and killed her.

You did this.

I blame myself.

I'm sorry.
I failed in my promise.

Thomas loved Ramah dearly,
Kafni.

And she loved him.
What are your words worth?

You are a fraud and a devil.

Deceptive sorcerer.

The biggest disappointment
in my life

is that I didn't teach
my daughter better.

She had a brilliant mind
until you cast a spell on her.

Ramah was murdered
by a Roman, Kafni.

And you don't speak for her.

She loved Jesus.

She felt her calling
was an honor.

And she wanted everyone to know
that, including you.

Let's go.

I curse you...

and your followers.

We grieve with you.

I will spread the word
far and wide.

As long as blood
runs in my veins,

I will move mountains to
expose you, Jesus of Nazareth!

I will make sure the world knows
you are a liar and a murderer!

You have made
your feelings clear.

We'll leave you in peace.

You will see me again.

And when you do, it will be
the last thing you see!

I said no more.

Eden, when does Zee get here
with the fruit?

Soon.

That's what I would have said.

Are you sleeping any better?

Better than I was
a few months ago,

but still not great.

You know,
when we had our loss...

it took me a few months also.

Eden even longer.

How are your prayers?

I do them...

but it's hard to mean them
sometimes.

"When I remember God, I moan;

when I meditate,
my spirit faints.

You hold my eyelids open."

What about leaving?

Even, you know, just for
a short time, getting away?

I just can't.

It's too painful
to be here.

And yet...

there's no place
I'd rather be.

Fresh fruit from the market.
Aye.

Finally.

At least you're back
to eating, no?

-Is it fresh?
-There you go.

Come on.

Thank you, Zee.

And for you, garlic,
onion, and malva.

Yes. Perfect.
You can set it on the counter.

Is it fresh?
Thank you.

Other one.
Is it fresh?

This?
Okay. Stand.

I pick this one.
Would you like to try some?

Thank you.
Welcome.

-Sweet.
-Sweet. It's a good one.

Philip, how do you eat
a pomegranate?

Pomegranate?
Oh, you need a knife.

Oh.

So...

you start at the top
and cut off the head, okay?

Yeah, you can
just cut it in half

and pick the seeds out
with your fingers.

Cut the pomegranate in half?

Were you raised by wolves?
You might say that.

Peter.

They did their best.

Did they?
Don't start, you two.

So look.
Here, there are five sections.

You're supposed to score
through the white parts

and then peel it open,
like orange peel.

No one ever taught me that.
Oh. Case in point.

You've been wasting pomegranate
seeds your whole life?

Am I on trial here?

All the pomegranate seeds

being wasted our whole lives.

What did I do?
I'm just trying to help you.

Flower.

Of course, the two brothers team up against me.

Seeds can be wasted.
Keep it coming. Let's go.

How about the seed?
Just one seed.

You wasting your seeds?
I apologize. I didn't know.

Pomegranates.
What? I'm just saying?

Here's to that.
No. No.

But maybe helpful.
Pomegranates.

God forbid the pomegranate.

No.
No, no, no.

God forbid
the pomegranate.

What are they on about in there?
Oh, I don't know.

Wanting to be right
about something as usual.

Or for someone else

to have been getting it wrong
their whole lives?

Yes. Yes.
How did you know?

What, you're saying
you haven't noticed a pattern?

Oh, yeah.
This is true.

They are pretty consistent
with these patterns.

Hm.

You remember when it was
just the three of us?

Do you ever miss those days?

Well, I could say we did
get to spend more time with you.

But to wish that others
would not

get this gift
by joining us also...

It would be selfish.

Hm.

Feels like
a lifetime ago.

One we can't go back to.

Where will we go?

Why do you ask?

We can't stay
in Capernaum forever.

No.

No, we can't.

Let no one underestimate
your wisdom, Little James.

Who am I to say?

But...

it doesn't seem so much like
wisdom to me as much as...

a feeling.

In my gut.

Hm.

A good feeling?

I can't describe it.

Try.

Lately, I...

I don't even want to say it.
I'll do it.

You've been saying things
about...

"When you're gone..."

more frequently.

Hm.

You've told us that...

you must suffer many things

at the hands of the elders
and chief priests.

Those people
are not in Capernaum.

They're not.

So that means that we'll be
on the move soon.

Sorry, "when" did you say?

So...

It's true.

We will head south
toward Jerusalem.

We will leave Capernaum.

The time has come.

Things will no longer
be simple.

Sorry to interrupt.

It's all right.

Eden sent me to ask
about the mint and lemon.

She's ready to
make the...

Here.

What happened?

Is the former publicanus,
Matthew,

at this residence?

Who's asking?
Praetor Gaius.

One moment.

You don't think Gaius intends
to bring Matthew back

for tax collection, eh?

I suppose we could ask.

Gonna go with Matthew.
I can talk to Gaius.

All right.
Come straight back.

We're taking a trip.

Publicanus.

No one has called me that
in a long time.

Please come with us.

It's all right, Matthew.
Peter will join you.

It's all right.

Is Matthew in trouble?

I don't think so.

Thaddeus, Andrew, Zee,

go tell the others
to gather their belongings.

Prepare for a journey.

Can you stop
fidgeting with that?

I'm sweating.

Can I wipe my brow with it?

Just try to stop
looking nervous.

You look nervous.

I'm curious, not scared.

You know,
Gaius isn't the same person

who shouted after you
when you left the tax booth.

Maybe he's having trouble
recruiting new tax collectors.

Pays well,
but you lose everything else.

Well, you think
he's looking for tips?

Honestly, you would know
better than me.

You've been spending
more time with him lately.

And beyond.
Beyond?

It's nothing.

Why do people do that?
What?

When someone says
that something's nothing,

it almost always means
that it's something.

It's very odd.

When they say it's nothing,

it usually means it's nothing
for you to worry about.

Or it's none of your business.

Or it's not a good time
to talk about it.

Then why not say
any one of those things?

It would eliminate a lot
of confusion in this world.

It would.

It's just that, uh...

It's just what?

Nothing.

Praetor.

Praetor.
Praetor.

Please.

Please sit.

Thank you for coming.
You couldn't send word

of what the nature
of this summoning was?

Absolutely not.

Uh...

"Peter."

Am I pronouncing that right?
I have it written down here.

Someone brought it
to my attention.

Close. It's a little softer.

Peter.

Peter.

You're a seafaring man.
Was, yeah.

Do you still know
how to tie the knots?

When the sky is red at dawn...

We would expect
there to be storms.

When you look south
to Jerusalem,

there is a very,
very red sky this morning.

The edicts coming out of Judea
from your religious leaders

are serious,
more threatening than before.

How-How threatening?

The Pharisees here
are watching your every move,

actively trying to trap your
rabbi in his words or actions.

And I am telling you,
they want him gone.

Gone?

Silenced.

Censored.

Worse.

I don't know. You tell me.

What is the precedent?
I don't know. Maybe...

the Baptizer?

No, the Pharisees
didn't kill John.

Herod is one of your people,
a client king,

and Galilee is
his jurisdiction.

The point is there's someone

watching both of us
very closely.

Me and you?

Me, this whole town,
and especially your group.

Atticus Aemilius Pulcher,
a cohortes urbanae,

has taken a special interest
in Jesus,

and he is monitoring activity
in Capernaum.

You know,
when we left the house,

Jesus told me
to prepare for a journey.

Maybe that's why.
He's no longer safe here.

I'm under pressure to crush
any religious extremism

or fringe uprising leaders
swiftly...

...and lethally.

If I don't
or if I even hesitate...

What?

They'll fire you?

I didn't expect you to get
a taste for power so quickly.

Worse. They might suspect
that I believe in him.

Okay.

Wait.

Jesus will be safe here,
I can assure you that.

But only if he keeps
a low profile.

That's not gonna happen.

A year ago, sure, he was
forbidding people he healed

from telling anyone about it,
but now it can't be contained.

Were you being serious?

I'm not telling you
to stop his mission.

Just do it outside
the city limits, okay?

That's all I'm asking.

For his safety and yours.

Now, I need you
to work with me on this.

Praetor...

do you believe in him?

I...

I'm not even sure
what that means.

Why haven't you gone
to see him if you are...

I have seen enough.

I have seen
what he does for those

who can be of no help
to him whatsoever.

I have heard him say words

that both unscramble
a lifetime of mystery

and fill me with questions.

The fact that I have seen him
is why I'm doing everything...

Has your son gotten
any better?

What?
It was a while ago. He was very ill.

Did he get better?

No.
S-son?

Something is wrong
with Marius?

Then why haven't you
brought him to see Jesus?

You say you've seen him
do things for people

who can be no help to him,

so why wouldn't he
do this for you

who are risking your life
and career to protect him?

He doesn't need my protection.

I don't want his mission delayed
by posturing and infighting.

You know, some believe his
mission is to overthrow Rome.

I-I'm sorry. Why does Jesus
need to see Marius?

Matthew.

I made a mistake that resulted
in a child born not of my wife.

Doesn't that happen
to your people all the time?

I-I apologize, but, uh...

at the risk
of an even greater offense,

sometimes people are inclined
to perceive judgment

because they feel guilty.

I feel guilty
for betraying my wife.

Do you feel repentant?

For that, yes.

And I love my son.

And he's ill?
For a long time, yes.

Why haven't you
gone to see Jesus, Gaius?

I know you've
thought about this.

You told your family
about a Jewish doctor.

Because I'm not worthy.

Neither was I.

Neither was I.

You do not know
the things I have done.

You know,
that's exactly what I said.

I'm an outsider.

One of his favorite
kinds of people.

Someone who's not Jewish?

Yeah.
Yeah.

Those dividing lines
don't matter to him.

It's part of the reason
why he's in so much trouble.

Gaius...

do you believe he's from God?

I know it must seem
intimidating.

There, there, dominus.

There's no need to be afraid.

I do believe.

You're happy crying?

I knowhe can heal my son.

Will you let me ask him?

Yeah. Yeah, I suppose, yeah.

Okay. Quick.

Uh--

Okay. All right.
That's enough, huh?

We haven't even gone
to see him yet.

That's a great point.

Why are we just standing here?
My son is as good as healed.

Let's go.

Did he just convert?

Yeah.

James, John.

Jesus says to gather
your things for a journey.

We'll be ready.
Where's the rendezvous?

The usual spot.
I'll come by here first.

Boys.

This is the time.

We will see. We'll find
the right time, we promise.

Listen. While it was
the greatest day

of my life
when Jesus called you,

I know that
being with the Messiah

and doing his work has
also been a weight to carry.

But I've never seen
the two of you closer

than these past six months.
I never want it to end.

It has been a quieter time.

John, you've always been
the more careful one.

But he has deep affection
for you,

and there's no harm
in simply asking.

We've talked about this.
I know, I know.

"Ask and it
will be given you."

Yes.

We will, Eema.
On this journey?

Yes. Yes.
Let's go over it one more time.

And don't forget
about you sitting

on his right and left hand
in his glory...

Yes, we know, Eema.
We've got it, Eema.

Good.

What are you waiting for?
Go get your things.

Well, I'm the first Jew

to willingly lead a Roman
soldier to his house.

And I'm the first soldier
to be led.

You know, we should stop
looking so happy

or we'll both
get in trouble.

Wait here.
I'll make sure he's inside.

Uh... Peter.

I'm realizing we're bringing
a Roman to see Jesus

and he didn't give us
permission...

I think by now
we've both seen enough

to know that this is
what Jesus would want.

Gaius, this way.

Praetor Gaius.

Lord.

My, uh, servant boy
is lying paralyzed at home.

He has been sick for so long,

and now he is suffering
terribly, near death.

Take me to him.

Lord...
You call him "Lord"?

...I am not worthy
to have you come into my home.

And I know you would not be
comfortable

as a Jew
in a Roman's home.

But you only need to say
the word and he will be healed.

Not worthy?

The truth...

about the child,
he's actually my son.

I am so ashamed.

I shouldn't even be asking you,
but I am.

And I know you can do it.

Master...

I never thought I'd say this,
but...

he is worthy to have you
do this for him.

He loves our people.
He has helped us.

I know.

Do not trouble yourself.

You can heal him from a distance
with only a word of command.

I also have authority
with men under me.

If I say to one, "go," he goes.

If I say to another, "come,"
he comes.

Anything you command
in this world will happen.

I know it.

Even this.

Stand up.

What?
Rise.

Did you all hear this man?

Truly, I tell you,

with no one in Israel
have I found such faith.

I was rejected
in my own hometown,

and I'm threatened

by the religious leaders
of my own people,

and yet this man...

a gentile,

has more bold confidence in what
he believes that I can do

than anyone
I have yet encountered.

Go.

It has been done for you
according to your belief.

Thank you.
Thank you.

You have brightened my day
to encounter this kind of faith.

Yes.

What?

What happened?

Gaius had faith that Jesus
could heal his servant

without even
coming to his house.

We know he can do that.

But such faith from a gentile?

Exactly.

Let-Let's do it now.
Let's ask him.

It will change everything.
Mm-hm.

Ask what?

Yeah.

Rabbi?
Yes, Big James?

Remember when you said
that we could ask for anything

and it would be given us?

Knock, and the door
will be opened.

I don't remember that.

Uh...
That was the right sermon.

I thought eematold me
it was the right...

I'm kidding. I remember, yeah.

Oh, heh.

Of course. Yeah.

We knew that.
Yeah.

Well, we have something to ask,
and for you to do.

I'm eager to hear it.

Would you...

grant for us...

to sit at your right hand

and your left hand
in your kingdom?

What does that mean?
Shh.

So...

You don't know
what you are asking.

What?

Rabbi.

Three cucumbers
and one cabbage. Yes.

I'm gonna take that wineskin.

The big one?
Yes, the big one.

Fine choice, sir.

Yes.

How much for these two?

Okay, great.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

No, no. It's okay.

Rabbi, what's wrong?

Are you able to drink the cup
that I would drink,

or be baptized with the baptism
with which I am baptized?

Yes, we are able.
We are the Sons of Thunder.

We'll do anything for you.

You don't even know
what that means either.

Tell us.
We'll do anything.

It means that when we go
to Jerusalem,

the Son of Man
will be delivered over

to the chief priests
and scribes,

and they will condemn him
to death

and they will deliver him
over to the gentiles.

And they will mock him,
and spit on him,

and flog him, and kill him.

And after three days,
he will rise.

Who are you talking about?

I thought the Son of Man
was you.

And you will drink
the cup that I drink,

and be baptized with the baptism
with which I am baptized.

But you do not want that now.

You are not ready for it.

To sit at my right hand
and my left,

it is not mine to grant...

but it is for those for whom it
has been prepared by my Father.

You have no business
asking what you did.

No offense, Nathanael,

but we were here
long before you.

How could you ask it?
And in front of all of us.

Now, ruling positions,
high seats of honor.

Oh, look who's talking.

Hey, I didn't ask for it.
He gave it to me.

You don't even know
what "the Rock" means.

Stop.

All of you have been granted
leadership and authority.

All of you make up
the foundation

on which I'll build
my church.

But you are thinking
like the gentiles,

whose rulers lord their
authority over their inferiors.

That is not
how my kingdom works.

I have told you this before...

and you still don't get it.

This has to change...

because their way
is not how it will be with you.

Do you hear me?

Yes.
Yes.

Yes.
Yes, Rabbi.

Whoever would be great among you
must be your servant,

and whoever would be first
among you must be your slave.

Because even the Son of Man

came not to be served
but to serve,

and to give his life
as a ransom for many.

A ransom for who?

Who is being held hostage,
Rabbi?

Go.

Continue south to Jerusalem.

Rabbi, do you need any...?
I will catch up.

I can stay with you.
I said, I'll catch up, Zee.

Gaius.

You're not going to believe it.

I do believe it.

What?

What?

I already know.

Daddy, look.

Shalom.
What?

It's something
that my friends say.

It means peace, wholeness.

Okay?

You are whole again.

Sha...

Sha...

Okay.

Shalom.

-Shalom.
-Shalom.

-Shalom.
-Okay. Say it twice.

Shalom. Shalom.
Shalom. Shalom.

That's it. Well done.

Shalom.

For my sides
are filled with burning...

there is no soundness
in my flesh.

I am feeble and crushed;

I groan because of the tumult
of my heart.

Oh, Lord...

all my longing is before you...

my sighing
is not hidden from you.

My heart throbs...

my strength fails me...

and the light of my eyes,
it also has gone from me.

My friends and companions...

stand aloof from my plague...

and my nearest kin

Zeb, we're ready

Ah. I love this part.

The first press,
sacred unto Adonai alone.
