In EMV 129, a Roman presents himself with his possessed brother. He has made a long journey to see the Master and have his brother cured. This deserves reward, but Christ doesn't stop there: he also tells him about the soul, about Galen, a Roman philosopher, and literally conquers the Roman's soul. Then he heals his possessed brother. Next, Jesus comments on a passage from the Second Book of Kings and says that he comes for everyone. He even states that by doing so, he was able to enlighten two souls who will go home to proclaim the Lord. The Master speaks briefly about the soul and the fact that the Savior came for the Gentiles too. The two Romans then leave. Aglaia weeps, and Jesus sends Peter to give her a message: "May homelands pass away, but Heaven abide."

Jesus talks to Andrew. He tells him about the birds and then talks about his silent, effective work. Andrew is the ideal model of a priest. Then John, Simon and Judas, who have gone to Jerusalem, return with a letter from Mary, Jesus' mother. They learn that the Pharisees are planning to come here, surprise him and accuse him. The apostles are not yet ready to confront the Sanhedrin and ask Christ to leave. They finally open the gifts made by the disciples' wives. But Jesus is preoccupied, suffering, and decides to hasten their departure, as he is not yet to be taken. So they prepare their belongings to go to Docco, and then to Bethany.
