Description
Notice that Jesus never travels alone – strange behavior for a 1st century Jewish holy man/prophet. Even more…unexpected…is the crowd with whom Jesus surrounds himself. Many are not known for their “holiness” (being sinners, drunkards and tax collectors). And a few have an even greater disqualifying element of their person they are women! (Oh…and don’t forget later that Jesus add a very famous murderer to the group!) In this episode we get a glimpse into the earliest church leaders – who they are, and who they aren’t. (Who refuses Jesus's invitation, and why???)
