New Testament times were occupied by all manner of Caesars and Herods and other authority figures and attention-seekers. Some of them even used religion as a lever for position and power. It's not much different today, when we have an abundance of self-proclaimed experts, leaders and celebrities, all scrambling for the spotlight.

Epigraph
Dedication
With much appreciation this book is dedicated to Helen and Beverly Peters, a mother-daughter team whose serve could hardly be improved. Because of their efficient and unselfish assistance behind the scenes, my wife and I have laughed more and worried less.
First words
For over two years I have been intrigued with a verse of Scripture found in Mark's account of the life of Jesus.
