Detail

Chapter title: The disciples' wives in the service of Jesus.

Date of vision: Thursday, May 3, 1945

Calendar: Saturday, January 15, 28 (1 Scébat 3788).

Location (map): From Capernaum to Caesarea Maritime

Cycle: The female apostolate

Summary: Peter broods in his corner. With the arrival of women disciples in the apostolic company, he has the impression that Porphyria, his wife, is useless. But Jesus says he needs some of the wives to stay at home, to provide shelter for their sisters who are following them into Palestine. This is a necessity: if they had all wanted to follow the Lord, he would have had to tell some of them to stay. Peter therefore reasserts himself, and we learn that the apostolic troop will be advancing towards Caesarea Maritime.

Chapter contents: 153.1: Peter regrets that his wife is not following Jesus. The others describe how women, mothers and daughters, serve Jesus. 153.2: Andrew points out his brother's authoritarian nature. Everyone laughs. 153.3: The characteristics of the apostolate of the disciples' wives.

Cycle: The female apostolate

Summary: Jesus is in Caesarea Maritime. To the great displeasure of the apostles, he goes to the pagan quarter. He approaches the sea and begins to preach. His aim is to speak to the galley slaves imprisoned in a galley. He meets Quintilianus, the Roman officer, and confides in him his desire to speak to the prisoners. The soldier brings him closer to the boat, and Jesus makes his speech. The Roman is amazed and admires him. He then tells him that Claudia Procula is present and wants to see him. Pilate's wife wants to talk about the soul, so Jesus brings up the subject. Then he leaves her and speaks to the apostles, who are... grumpy and grumbling. Finally, Maria reveals one of her wearinesses as a spokeswoman, and Jesus gives us a lesson on discouragement in the apostolate.
