The play explores the dramatic encounter between the blinded Oedipus and the biblical prophet Nathan, who brings him before the Great Sanhedrin in Jerusalem to face trial for his past actions. It reinterprets the narrative of Oedipus Rex, contrasting Greek and Judaic perspectives on determinism and moral behavior. With Sophocles as the accuser and Nathan as the defender, the story delves into themes of guilt and fate, while also challenging the traditional interpretation of the Oedipus complex, suggesting a deeper understanding of Oedipus' plight.
