Cycle: The female apostolate

Summary: Jesus is at Cana, simply teaching his friends. Along comes a royal official from Herod's court, pleading for healing for his son who is in Tiberias. He acknowledges that they are behaving badly towards the Forerunner, but affirms that he has faith. Jesus grants his request. Susanna's husband then comes to him to ask for his wife's healing. At first, he wants to offer her money, but Jesus asks what her soul would be willing to offer in exchange for the miracle. So the Savior asks his wife to become his disciple. The husband is kind, and confesses that he used to love his wife more as flesh than as spirit. However, the Messiah's teaching has already changed his mentality. He now begins to see her as a soul and agrees to let her come to Him, if Susanna agrees. Jesus then tells her not to say anything to her soul mate and that she will come spontaneously to Christ.

Chapter contents: 151.1: Jesus heals the royal officer's son. 151.2: Susanna's husband pleads for his wife's healing. He is ready to give her up for it. 151.3: Jesus must ask husbands and fathers for female disciples. Susanna is healed after her husband agrees.

Jesus goes to Elijah, who has invited him to a banquet. Four other Pharisees are present: Uriah, Joachim, Simon and Samuel. On Christ's side, Judas accompanies him. The others did not come, and when Elijah notices, he worries that they may have been offended by his past behavior. But Jesus assures him that his disciples hold no grudges, nor are they proudly sensitive.

The Lord says a few words to Elisha, and then everyone settles down to eat. They start talking about the Roman vexations and the taxes imposed on the Pharisees. They take offense and ask Jesus for his opinion. He replies that as a Jew, he takes offense at the Roman incursions into the places of prayer, but as a man, he does not. He explains his thinking, pointing out that his interlocutors do business in the synagogues so that they can hide money from the tax authorities, safe from prying ears, and that this is why the Romans enter places of worship. He, on the other hand, is poor and doesn't have to worry about that, but he encourages his interlocutors to be honest, to tell the truth, about their wealth.

The conversation then turns to the restoration of the Kingdom of Israel, and Jesus quotes the Old Testament, when Saul offered the offering without Samuel, against the Lord's orders. Saul did not remain king. Likewise, God knows his time, and Jesus speaks very clearly of his Kingdom, which will be universal and will not be established by rebellion.

Finally, the Messiah encourages Elijah to come with him to give the obolus to the poor, but Elijah refuses, claiming that he is old and tired. He tells him to go with Judas, whom they know well, and once outside, the Iscariot leaps up in anger. Jesus calms him down and advises him to leave all judgment to God.
