"Now let us hasten to report to the high priest the result of our errand." The servant then returned and closed the door behind him. The three messengers then returned. Rabinth remarked anxiously, "Pilate will surely agree to the demand of the council." "He must," said the rabbi, "how could he resist it when the Sanhedrin and the whole people demand with one voice the death of this man?"
"Thou thyself," said Caiaphas, "together with Dariabbas and Rabinth shalt go before. We will speedily come after." When these three had departed Caiaphas said, "This day, then, will save the religion of our fathers, and exalt the honor of the synagogue, so that the echo of our fame shall reach our latest descendants."
The waverers will concur with them, and the followers of the Nazarene will find it well to be silent, and take themselves off." Then said Rabinth, seeing they had approached the place of Pilate, "How shall we bring our message to Pilate? We dare not enter the house of the Gentile today, as in that case we should become unclean and could not eat the Passover?"
The rabbi returning down the steps joined Dariabbas and Rabinth, who stood below. "It is very sad," said Dariabbas, "that we must knock at the door of a Gentile in order to get the behests of our holy law executed." "Take courage," said the rabbi, "when once this domestic enemy is removed out of the way, who knows whether we might not soon free ourselves from the foreign foe?"
Rabinth exclaimed, "Oh, may I live to see the day which will bring freedom to the children of Israel!" Pilate's servant returned and spoke unto them saying, "The governor greets you. You are to inform the high priest that Pilate is ready to receive the petition of the Sanhedrin." "Accept our thanks for thy kindness," said the rabbi.
