THE KING OF KINGS.

Our first sight of Jesus is through the eyesight of a little girl, whom he heals. We see Mary Magdalene, here portrayed as a wild courtesan, entertain many men around her. Peter is introduced as the Giant apostle, and we see the future gospel writer Mark as a child who is healed by Jesus. The crucifixion is foreshadowed when Jesus, having helped a poor family, wanders through the father's carpentry shop and briefly helps carve a piece of wood.
