The Pharisees give him 30 pieces of silver for his assistance. He believes Jesus is going too far and wants to help. Judas, one of Jesus' disciples, approaches the Pharisees. The Pharisees take this as a plan to destroy the temple and decide Jesus must be stopped. Later, Jesus tells a little girl that every stone of the temple will soon fall. This act draws cheers from the people and scorn from the Pharisees. Upon entering the temple, Jesus sees a group of money changers and proceeds to upend their tables. It is revealed that, earlier, Pilate had warned Caiaphas that if there were any trouble from the Jews, he would close the temple, thus cancelling Passover. Caiaphas, the head of the Pharisees, is afraid that Jesus' presence in the city will further agitate his people, who are already in a near state of revolt against the oppressive Romans, led by Pontius Pilate. He enters the city on the back of a donkey and is met by a huge crowd of supporters, who lay palm leaves in his path. Jesus tells the disciples they are to travel to Jerusalem for the upcoming Passover holiday. Jesus responds by saying he is the son of God. The Pharisees claim Jesus is blaspheming God by forgiving sins, something only God can do. He also draws the attention of the Pharisees, Jewish religious leaders. Through his teachings and numerous miracles, Jesus builds a huge following, who begin to call him the Messiah. Soon these men and women eventually become his disciples. Thirty years later, an adult Jesus Christ ( Diogo Morgado) travels to Galilee and begins recruiting followers, James, his brother John, Peter, a fisherman, Matthew, a tax collector and Mary Magdalene. Three wise men visit Jesus declare him the future King. In Bethlehem, Jesus is born to a virgin named Mary and her husband Joseph. John, the last surviving follower of Jesus Christ, lives in exile as a hermit near the seaside where he tells his story of his time with Jesus.
