About the
The Jerusalem Herald is a publication of Regal Ventures Creative Ministries
distributed in connection with the CrossWalk street drama presentation produced
with the cooperation of the city of Kings Mountain, North Carolina.
All contents of this publication are copyright 2005 AD by Regal Ventures, Inc. ;
The purpose of this publication is to promote a fresh understanding of the attitudes
and circumstances prevalent at the time of the resurrection of Jesus and to extend
the sense of “eyewitness” experience instilled by the unique format of dramatic
presentation provided by CrossWalk. The articles were written with historical
accuracy in mind, but also with a sense of whimsy and wonder to imply the lack
of human grasping of the “big picture” of salvation that was still unfolding that
first Easter morning.

society of the time was dominated by the Roman rule, a situation which created
much tension (as exemplified by the precarious situation Pilate found himself in

Jewish temple authorities).
