Seeing as it was the leader of the rebellion & his entourage, I think it would make sense to leave no possible loose ends (in this case, the MC). Not exactly a nice thing to do(...), but I can see the reasoning. And the Jesus hyperbole, by the way, doesn't make much sense to me. Wasn't forgiveness kinda his schtick? "Turn the other cheek", "how many times shall I forgive my brother...", all that stuff?
