He explains that Christ erred when He expected man to voluntarily choose to follow Him. The church, however, is now correcting His errors and aiding man by removing their awful burden of freedom. The Grand Inquisitor explains to Christ that, because of His rejection of the three temptations, He placed an intolerable burden of freedom upon man. The Grand Inquisitor enters the darkened cell and begins a severe reprimand of Christ for appearing again and hindering the work of the church.

During the sixteenth century in Spain, at the height of the Inquisition, someone resembling Christ appears unannounced in the streets.
