Summary: The apostles discuss the fact that there are two groups: one belonging to Christ, the other to John the Baptist. They would like Jesus to be scandalized that he is cast out because of a false zeal for John. But Jesus says that the saints don't care if their disciples go from one to the other, from John to Jesus and vice versa. He also enjoins them not to ask God "why". Finally, Jesus speaks of baptism, and declares that soon Grace will be restored to mankind. They are now on the edge of Samaria. The Master asks his disciples if he would speak to the Samaritans, and of course they are indignant. But the Lord affirms that he will speak if asked.

Cycle: The Samaritan woman

Summary: Guided by Photinai, the Samaritans go to see Jesus. Their leader speaks to him, and the Lord confirms that he is the Christ: he quotes Ezekiel, and tells them that his food is to do his Father's Will. He confirms that he was born of a virgin in Bethlehem. Then the leader asks him about their schism, because he thinks they will always be separated from God. Jesus declares that all would be pacified if they came to the Truth, but he also tells them that only sin kills the soul and union with God.
