"Triumph!" cried Caiaphas in wild exultation. "The victory is ours! The enemy of the synagogue is destroyed!"
The priests and people shouted, "Away with him to Golgotha! Long live the synagogue! Long live the nation!"
Then said Annas, "Hasten, that we may come home in time to eat the Passover."
The priests and Pharisees said, "We will keep this Passover with joy, as did our fathers in Egypt."
"Now," said Caiaphas, "let our triumphal procession go through the midst of Jerusalem."
"Where," asked the rabbi, "are his disciples? They are invited to cry Hosanna!"
Then rushed the multitude away, crying, "Up and away off to Golgotha! Come and see him perish on the cross! O delightful day, the enemy of Moses is overthrown! Ha! now he has his reward! So be it done to everyone who despises the law! He deserves the death on the cross! O happy Passover! Now joy will return to Israel! There is an end of the Galilean!" And so crying, with wild and savage clamor, they swept back to the street of the Sanhedrin.
