Synopsis:
The Final Straw is a study in the Gospel of Mark. It is the story of Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus chose a motley crew of fishermen, tax collectors and militant radicals for disciples. They followed him up and down the dusty roads of Israel witnessing his miracles and hearing firsthand the words that fell from his lips. However, Jesus' miracles and teachings brewed tension between Jesus and the religious leaders of Israel. Jesus is pushed to the point of no return at seeing corruption in the Temple. Likewise, Jesus' actions at Passover became the final straw for the Pharisees and Sadducees and spiraled into a conspiracy of murder.
