Roman Praetorium 11:15 Roman Standard Time
Any minute now, Roman Governor Pontius Pilate is expected to appear for a mandatory assembly. These assemblies usually consist of the announcement of new laws, judgements handed down regarding ongoing cases, and occasionally an invitation to an execution party at the Governor’s home.
The crowd is larger than usual today and while I would like to credit the election, the sense I’m getting from the crowd is that the main draw today is the appeal of one Barrabas, known by friends as “Barry,” whose release would be rather controversial in local communities.
From this vantage point, I can see movement in the inner courtyard. It seems…yes, they are definitely on the move. The security detail is fanning out in front of the lower steps, and I can see Governor Pilate himself, nodding at the crowd.
We will return after a short break.
