Chapter 7 Caiaphas

To talk about the person of Jesus and his death, we have to consider two salient factors: the law of Moses must be preserved by us, and the nation must be protected by Rome. And this man is very disrespectful to us and to Rome.He has poisoned the minds of the vulgar, as if by magic, inducing them to resist us, against Tazar. My own servants and maids, too, became indignant after hearing his speeches in the marketplace.Some house slaves also ran away from my house and fled to the desert where they came from. Do not forget that the Mosaic law is our foundation and tower of strength, and as long as we bind people hand and foot with this power, no one can overthrow us; as long as the walls of Jerusalem stand on the ancient stone laid by David, no one can overthrow us. overthrow the city.

If the Seed of Abraham is to survive and flourish, the land must be unpolluted. But the man Jesus was the one who defiled and corrupted.We executed him prudently and well.We will also execute anyone who dares to demean the Law of Moses and our sacred traditions. We and Pontius Pilate were well aware of the dangers of this man, and thought it wise to kill him. I will also see his followers suffer the same fate, and see the echoes of his words also fade away. If Judea is to survive, all who oppose her must be reduced to dust.Before Judea perishes, I will cover my gray head with ashes like the prophet Samuel, I will tear up this garment handed down by Aaron, and wear mourning clothes until I die.
