Epiphany Play - Jerusalem or Bethlehem? (Script)

In this short 7 minute dramatic dialogue, the magi, en route to Jesus' birthplace, quarrel over the likely destination. There's good biblical reason for each argument. Only 14 kilometres apart, Jerusalem and Bethlehem represent significantly different aspirations and messianic expectations. What type of king do we expect Jesus to be? Suitable for Epiphany.

The original script was first performed at the Mennonite Church Canada Assembly, 2010 as part of the Being a Faithful Church presentation.
