As the story goes - two thousand years or so ago, a group of religious people got together to plot against a guy named Jesus of Nazareth - the carpenters son. He had been going around teaching things that didn’t line up with what they were teaching, and it was disrupting the natural order of things. Some of the people were reporting that he had done miracles - healed blind people, even raised the dead. More than once he had caused a disturbance in the temple. They were losing their authority in people’s lives, they were losing their importance. So they planned. They wanted him captured and killed. Nothing else would do.
