“Jesus is a problem for the Romans. With pilgrims from everywhere setting up a tent city at the gates of Capernaum to see Jesus, tensions rise. Jesus officially sends the twelve apostles on an exciting but dangerous mission, causing Little James to ask why he hasn’t been healed.”

Matthew 10:5-11, John 12:4-6, and 2 more

  1. Matthew 10:5-11, 14, 28

    Jesus sends forth the Twelve.

    1. 5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
    2. 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
    3. 7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
    4. 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
    5. 9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
    6. 10 Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
    7. 11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

  2. John 12:4-6

    Judas was the keeper of the money.

    1. 4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, which should betray him,
    2. 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?
    3. 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

  3. Job 1:26

    Jesus quotes this passage while talking to Little James.

  4. Psalm 3

    The apostles recite this together at the end of the episode.

    1. 1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
    2. 2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
    3. 3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
    4. 4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
    5. 5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
    6. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
    7. 7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
    8. 8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
