24:36Ah, a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things, huh?
24:41I'm trying, Rabbi.
24:43I know. I know.
24:49Do you hear this?
24:51What?
24:53Listen.
24:56What do you hear?
24:58The wind.
25:00How do you know it's the wind?
25:02Because I can feel it, and I hear its sound.
25:06Do you know where it comes from?
25:08No.
25:08Do you know where it's going?
25:09No.
25:11That's what it is, to be born again of the spirit.
25:15The spirit may work in a way that is a mystery to you.
25:18And while you cannot see the spirit, you can recognize his effect.
25:26Mind is consumed with thoughts of what a stir these words would cause among the teachers of the law.
25:32Yes.
25:34And I do not expect otherwise.
25:37I speak of what I know and have seen, and it has not been received by the religious leaders.
25:42It is hard to receive.
25:44So if I have told you of earthly things, and you do not believe, how can I tell you heavenly
25:51things?
25:52I believe your words.
25:54I just fear you may not have a chance to speak many more of them before you are silenced.
26:00I have come to do more than speak words, Nicodemus.
26:03More miracles.
26:05Yes.
26:07But even more than that, do you remember when the children of Israel complained against God and against Moses in
26:14the wilderness of Paran?
26:16Yes.
26:17They wanted to return to Egypt, and they cursed the manna that God sent them.
26:21And then?
26:21They were bitten by serpents, and they were dying.
26:26But?
26:27But God made a way for them to be healed.
26:31Moses lifted the bronze serpent in the desert, and people only needed to look at it.
26:39So will the Son of Man be lifted up, so that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.
26:46Our people are not dying from snakebites.
26:49They're dying from taxation and oppression.
26:51I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I did not come to deliver the people from Rome.
26:56Then from what?
26:57From sin.
27:00From spiritual death.
27:05God loves the world in this way, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
27:14perish, but have eternal life.
27:18So this has nothing to do with Rome?
27:22It's all about sin.
27:25God did not send his Son into the world to condemn it, Nicodemus.
27:28He sent him to save it through him.
27:32It's as simple as Moses' serpent on the pole.
27:37Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already.
27:44Have you ever heard anything like this before?
27:46Shhh!
27:48When I met Lilith, Mary, that day.
27:55I told my wife and my students that she was beyond human aid.
28:01Only God could have healed her.
28:06And then I saw her.
28:09Healed.
28:13And here you are.
28:19The healer.
28:23My whole life I have wondered if I would see this day.
28:35Follow me.
28:36Follow me.
28:37And you'll see more.
28:40Follow you.
28:41Join me and my students.
28:44In two days' time, we leave Capernaum.
28:47Come see the kingdom I am bringing into this world.
28:51But I...
28:52I...
28:52I can't...
28:53You have a position in the Sanhedrin.
28:55You have family.
28:57You are getting advanced in years.
29:00Really?
29:04I understand.
29:07But the invitation is still open.
29:10The invitation to what exactly?
29:13To lead a nomadic life?
29:15To...
29:15To give up who I am?
29:19It's true.
29:21There is a lot you would give up.
29:24But what you would gain...
29:28Is far greater...
29:29And more lasting.
29:31Is this another one of your...
29:33Born again mysteries?
29:39Maybe...
29:41I know mysteries aren't easy for a scholar.
29:48Think about it.
29:49Hmm?
29:50Take your time.
29:52On the morning of the fifth day...
29:54We leave...
29:55And we'll meet by the well...
29:57In the southern quarter...
29:58At dawn.
30:02Is...
30:03Is this...
30:07Is the kingdom of God...
30:10Really coming?
30:13What does your heart tell you?
30:15No.
30:17My heart is swollen with fear and...
30:21And wonder.
30:24You can tell me nothing...
30:25Except that I am standing on holy ground.
30:38Holy roof anyway.
30:44I do hope you'll come with us, Nicodemus.
30:52You don't have to do that.
30:56What are you doing?
30:58Kiss the sun.
31:01Lest he be angry and you perish in the way.
31:10Blessed are all...
31:12Who take refuge in him.
31:38You see the Parthian foot races last night?
31:40Darius ran like a gazelle.
31:42Just don't go to foot races.
31:44Your old friend Simon himself...
31:46Used to run the wagering tables.
31:47We're not friends.
31:48Next.
31:50Okay.
31:51Fine.
31:52So you did not go to the races?
31:54You stay home?
31:56I went to see my mother.
31:58Ugh.
31:58That would put me out too.
32:00She asked when you're going to give her grandchildren?
32:03She didn't ask.
32:05I thought your parents don't speak to you.
32:07I had questions I couldn't ask anyone else.
32:10A mother of a son with talent like yours...
32:13You should be proud.
32:14She's ashamed that I could use the talent that God gave me against God.
32:18Next.
32:18You're good at something.
32:20You found a way to make a living doing it.
32:22It's that simple.
32:26Must be nice to live in a world so simply ordered.
32:28We live in the same world, Matthew.
32:30Next.
32:31Besides, what else are you going to do with a mind like yours?
32:52Matthew.
32:52Matthew.
32:58Matthew, son of Alpheus.
33:06Yes?
33:08Follow me.
33:12Me?
33:14Yes.
33:15You.
33:17Whoa, whoa, whoa.
33:19What are you doing?
33:21You want me to join you?
33:22Keep moving, street preacher.
33:24Do you have any idea what this guy has done?
33:28Do you even know him?
33:31Yes.
33:40Listen.
33:41I said to...
33:44What are you doing?
33:48Where do you think you're going?
33:49Guys?
33:50Let me go.
33:55No.
33:56Have you lost your mind?
33:58You have money.
33:59Quintus protects you.
34:01No Jew lives as good as you.
34:04You're going to throw it all away.
34:08Yes.
34:21I don't get it.
34:22You didn't get it when I chose you either.
34:25But this is different.
34:26I'm not a text collector.
34:28Get used to different.
34:35I'm glad we passed by your booth today, Matthew.
34:38Yes.
34:42Shall we?
34:44We have a celebration to prepare for.
34:47You will regret this, Matthew.
34:50What's the tablet for?
34:52I grabbed it without thinking.
34:54You can put it back.
34:54No.
34:55No, keep it.
34:56You may yet find use for it.
34:59Where are we going?
35:00A dinner party.
35:02I'm not welcome at dinner parties.
35:03Well, that's not going to be a problem tonight.
35:06You're the host.
35:20You're all RIGHT.
35:24I stopped in in tomorrow.
35:24You need to.
35:29cool.
35:46Hello and welcome.
