Son of Man

The key to a bold and original approach to the mission arrest trial and death of Jesus is the title; Son of Man. He is portrayed as a man agonized by the feeling of divinity within him and with all a man's capacity for suffering and pain. Father let me be just a man he cries; and to his disciples. He (Son of Man) cannot be other than a man or else God has cheated-- and so my Father in Heaven will abandon me to myself. The play also strongly reflects the historical and political situation in which the events occur-- and examines in a new light the character and motives of Judas Iscariot.-3 women 27 men
