Anna (Hanne), son of Nahum, and his Woman
Anna (Hanân) sits on the Sanhedrin in the college of scribes.
Her father, Nahum, is the trusted man of the High Priest Anna. Through the intermediary of the scribe Sadoc, he marries a very rich heiress from the region of Saphet: an only daughter, an orphan and already "old, ugly and slightly limping."
The husband soon squanders and embezzles her fortune. Then, after a few years of marriage, Shalem is born, a deformed child. Anna uses this as a pretext to send away his Woman and take another, young, beautiful and rich. The repudiated Woman takes refuge with her old stewards, John and Mary, and dies there.
The child is entrusted by his father to Josias who mistreats him. Young Shalem comes to ask Jesus for the Grace to die. Instead, Jesus heals him. Judas, who knows the Family, is offended:
"What an ill-timed miracle! Do you think that with this you will make friends with his father and Nahum? You will make them more hateful! They only wished for the death of this child, fruit of an unhappy marriage."[1]
Anna shares, indeed, with his father Nahum, a prominent member of the Sanhedrin, a persistent hatred towards Jesus.
He dies tragically in a landslide during the earthquake that accompanies the death of Jesus.[2] His body is found several days later.[3]
