The Thief-The Moneychangers Are Back and Jesus Is still Weeping

Lucius Arias was the result of a brutal assault by a conquering Roman soldier upon his young mother. Her wanderings lead her to come to reside in a grand villa and become part of the Judean household who found her. He grew up in a home were he was loved, educated and adopted eventually by these kind people.
The Roman pressures against those who resided in Jerusalem was on the brink of total rebellion. Woven throughout, Lucius has different encounters with the wandering preacher Jesus and ended with him on that fateful day, on Golgotha Hill.
He had the memory of the description of that Roman soldier, and the mixed feelings of hatred and longing to connect with his father. He, too, had entered into the circle of family of his son, yet neither had met, until a chance meeting that would end in violance.
