I. Darkness At Noonday
Darkness had come at noonday! It lasted for hours, as if the sun were hiding its face.
Well it should have! The events of this day were the deeds of the night, not deserving the light of day. A hurried arrest and trial had consumed the night. Before dawn a mob had gathered. By noonday that mob and its leaders had intimidated an officer of justice, agreed to the release of a notorious criminal and crucified an innocent man.
