SAMUEL is Macky’s father, a successful silversmith. A warm, friendly and wise man, he was born Jewish, but later was drawn to the Friends of Jesus, and it’s been a difficult path. Because of the war they’re fighting in Jerusalem with the zealots, the Romans are suspicious of nearly all the religious minorities within their Empire. So Samuel and the Friends of Jesus exist in secret. When the Roman vice begins to tighten, Samuel is forced to make a difficult decision: should he sit back and reap the profits of his successful small business, or should he risk everything by working with the rebel underground, and helping the Friends?
