Questions whether Jesus was a rebel against the Roman Empire or in league with Rome against the Judean insurgency. Examines the Greek word translated as robber in the Gospels and rebel in Josephus' War of the Jews. Looks at the 'den of thieves,' 'good thief/ bad thief,' Good Samaritan and shepherd as for or against self-rule. Compares the zealot revolt of Judea to the simultaneous story of Jesus for where it stands on empire vs. sovereignty.
