Galilee region

Jesus arrives in Nazareth with his apostles. He invites his disciples to accompany him home to meet his Mother. On his arrival, Christ is greeted by a flock of children. He responds to their greetings, then arrives at his home. His Mother is naturally happy to see him, but she is also anxious, because her relatives have told her what he did in the Temple. After their reunion, the disciples get to know him (except John, who has already met her) and they all sit down at table. Mary of Alphaeus is present in the house, and Jude tells her of his decision to follow Jesus. She is delighted, and the group shares anecdotes about Jesus' life. The vision ends.

Jesus is in Capernaum: he goes fishing with Peter and Andrew. John and James are in the other boat.

Peter explains his work to Christ, who makes an analogy with souls. He explains that a fault is not irreparable in itself, but that the accumulation of such faults can turn into a habit and even a capital vice. We must always be vigilant to avoid falling into sin.

Simon of Jonah asks if the Father won't be too harsh on him, and Jesus assures him that he won't be too harsh on Peter, the new man. He also assures Andrew of his love, and speaks of all the disciples who will come after them, evoking the Kingdom of Heaven and the abundant catch the Savior will make. He also encourages his apostle not to be jealous, for everyone has a place in his heart. Peter is moved by his words; as for Andrew, Jesus tells him of his blessed death.

John arrives in the meantime and reveals that a blind man has come to be healed by Christ. Jesus wants to heal him right away, and in the face of Peter's thoughts of not having a good catch, he assures him of God's help whenever we are charitable.

Finally, the Lord heals the blind man. And it's a beautiful healing.

In a note to the second edition, it is written: in reality, this is the house of Peter's mother-in-law, is a correction by Maria Valtorta on a typed copy. De sa belle-mère, at the beginning of 58.8, is an addition by her hand on the same copy. Various passages in chapter 60 will mention Peter's two houses: his own in Bethsaida, and that of his mother-in-law in Capernaum.

Jesus comes to preach at the Capernaum synagogue. Jairus welcomes him and Jesus asks him for a scroll: the Spirit will guide him. So Jesus makes a commentary on the Book of Joshua and talks about the Kingdom of God, the need to sin no more, to repent, and to prepare for Heaven and the eternity to come. A man contradicts him at the end of his preaching, and sites the second book of the Maccabees. He says that God struck Israel, and Jesus replies that he is applying a human view to these words, whereas the Lord interprets them supernaturally. He says that, while God has struck down his people, he has nevertheless deeply loved Israel by sending them the salvation that is his Messiah.

The man then criticizes Christ and doubts that he is the Redeemer. In response, Jesus evokes the Forerunner and the dove that descended at his baptism: he affirms in all simplicity that he is the promised Redeemer. Since his interlocutor doubts this, he calls in a demon-possessed man to whom he has never spoken. The demon becomes agitated when he stands before the Son of God, and asserts that he is the Holy One of God. Jesus orders him to shut up and go away. The man is healed, and his interlocutor, defeated, leaves to the mockery of the crowd.

Jesus performs several physical miracles and then leaves the synagogue with difficulty.

Peter asks Jesus to come to his house in Capernaum (which is really the house of his wife and mother-in-law). His mother-in-law is ill, and Simon asks his Master to heal her. So Jesus goes there and meets Peter's sisters-in-law. One of them tells them that his mother-in-law has a high fever and has stopped eating. The doctor even said she was going to die. But Jesus enters the room and performs a miracle. Surprised, Simon's mother-in-law doesn't even think of thanking the Master, or at least not until it's too late. Peter is flabbergasted and Jesus tells him to let it be. He tells him that there will be others like this, and that there have even been others in Nazareth, when he saved the mother of the child Sarah. Peter can't stand it when people don't love Christ, but Christ tells him that there will be many other animosities, including the "saints" who despise publicans, prostitutes, pagans and sinners, even though these will surpass them.

Peter's mother-in-law returns and offers them a meal. She reproaches her son-in-law, and Jesus encourages him to return to the house in Capernaum. John and James will also come, as they are partners.

Finally, the child James appears to hand over a purse from a stranger. Peter wants to know who it is, but the child remains silent... And so did Jesus.

Peter has two homes: one in Bethsaida, which is his own, the other in Capernaum, which is actually his mother-in-law's house and Porphyria's birthplace.

Jesus gives a parable about the king's beloved horse. It speaks of the will of man, of the Son being sent by the Father to save his beloved creature. The people tell Jesus that, in the face of such an attitude, the horse must return to God, since his king wishes him well, and Jesus encourages them to follow the response they have given.

Next, Jesus wants to give the obolus. A hunchback shows up (who didn't dare ask for the miracle), as does an old man who has come to beg for his daughter's healing; she's bedridden. Jesus heals them.

Then there's a 27-year-old woman with seven children who has nothing left. He gives her a large sum of money and promises that God's help will not fail her.

Finally, there's a ragged old man to whom Jesus gives nothing. The man claims that Christ is unjust and makes a fuss. But Jesus rebukes him, for he is a liar, a usurer, a miser and a thief. He orders him to leave and, as the crowd laughs, Jesus rebukes them too, urging them never to lack charity by insulting a sinner, for everyone has his own sin. Jesus must have shamed him, for it is never permissible to be a thief, but he suffered for doing so, and he invites men not to be greedy, not to lie, to be pure and honest.

Finally, Jesus frees two of the possessed. But he is overwhelmed, because there are possessions fermenting in hearts that close them off to honesty and love. Jesus is sad. The vision ends there.
