Jairus:
We were walking the way to Emmaus.
Cleopas:
To my cousin's house. The women and children had gone ahead.
Jairus:
We agreed to meet at Emmaus, hide there for a few days and travel back.
Cleopas:
When this man came up to us...
Jesus:
Hello! Do you mind if I join you?
Cleopas:
[surprised]
No... um... no.
[beat]
Jesus:
[breaking the silence]
It um... sounded like an interesting conversation.
Cleopas:
Some things are too terrible to explain.
Jesus:
Oh? What things?
Jairus:
What things? The terrible death of Jesus from Galilee.
Jesus:
Tell me about it.
Cleopas:
Tell you? Where have you been?
Jairus:
We believed he was a great... prophet.
[shakes head]
Jairus:
More than that.
Cleopas:
That he was the chosen one who would... save Israel.
Jesus:
Oh the Messiah!
Jairus:
But how could the Messiah die the death of a common criminal?
Jesus:
[chuckles]
Oh foolish men. You're so learned. You talk of prophets, have you never read the prophets? You talk of the Messiah - don't you understand that he *had* to die? Don't you understand the scriptures at all?
