Fiction
Barabbas Tried on All Regards
by Arswendo Atmowiloto
Description
“Which one do you want me to set free, Barabbas or Jesus called Christ?” asked Pilate to the crowd.
We know they chose Barabbas, but who is this man? Described only as a “notable prisoner” in the gospels, there wasn’t much information about him. It turned out that he was not your typical criminal.
Nicknamed the Handsome Scorpion, Barabbas was born and raised as a true Judaean. He was a brilliant student at the synagogue. He had read all of the Five Books, his people’s holy scripture, able to chantillate melodiously---half of those verses were ingrained in his mind. He was a headstrong and unyielding freedom fighter for his country from the Roman Empire's oppression, too brave and loyal to his cause for his own good. His atrocities toward Roman soldiers, his archenemy, and his insolence towards the hypocrisy of The Scribes and the religious figures of his own people made him an enemy of both sides.
This history-based novel presents a compelling story of Barabbas personal history and journey as a notorious rebel, a condemned criminal, an exonerated man that unwittingly took part in a chain of events that lead to the Crucifixion that changed the rest of his life. This is the living testament of Barabbas, full name Jesus Barabbas.
