Let the reader imagine that he is in Jerusalem, in Judea, about the year AD 34. There is unusual tumult in the vicinity of the Temple. A large crowd has gathered, and is swayed like the billows in a storm. As we approach, we see a young man, who is trying to raise his voice above the din. There is something very striking about his looks. His eyes gleam with an unearthly light. As the crowd surges and threatens, he is calm. His thoughts and looks are directed more to Heaven than Earth.
