Tevedzera zviitiko zvaAvi, murume wechidiki ari kurwisana nehupenyu chaihwo hwekugara munyika yeIsrael munguva yekutonga kweRoma muzana remakore rokutanga. Avi akawana rudo muFiora, musikana akanaka weItaly uyo asingamudi chete, asiwo Mwari uyo ivo vose vanotenda maari. Avi ane zvose kutenda uye rudo, asi achakwanisa here kukunda matambudziko anouya nehukasha hwehupenyu muUmambo hweRoma? Nguva dzose ave achifunga kuti vose vari vaviri muJudha naVamarudzi zvakafanana vakasikwa savana vaMwari mumwe, asi nhamo ichamutapura sei? Ko Avi achabatwa nembavha usiku here? Kana kuti, achawana rugare here?

Rakagadzwa mugore rinotungamira muchirimo cha31 AD, bhuku rino haringotaridzi nhongonya nemipata yerudo rwechidiki, asiwo rudo rukuru. Inyaya inokurumidza kufamba iyo inosanganisira zvose kutamburira uye kudzikinurwa. Rinoongorora kwete chete hupenyu hwevaroorani vechidiki, asi hweuyo ari muuranda hweRoma, murume akaremara aitarisira chishamiso nokutendeka, muzvinabhizimisi wechiJudha anovhengana neRoma kuti awane mhindu, nezvimwe zvakawanda. Iyi ingano yenhoroondo yeJudeo-Christian pakunaka kwayo!
