Factual error: In the scene where Marcellus is being shipped off to "Palestine" on the galley - presumably from Ostia the port of Rome at the mouth of the Tiber - he is urged to hurry up his farewell to Diana by the galley captain because "we will miss the tide." This is the Mediterranean - there is no tide to speak of.

Demetrius: You're afraid, but you really don't know the reason why. You think it's his robe that made you ill. But it's your own conscience, your own decent shame. Even when you crucified him you felt it.
