dagger little memento I picked up the

night the prisoners escaped

that you don't happen to know to which

one of your village zealots this dagger

belongs sell it no no I told you you lie

you're probably one of them yourself

I'd break your arm you might talk go

tell you anything you'll talk when the

time comes

called you together the time has come to

knows me but one of us you Laban will

approach him saying that your father

sick you'll follow where you lead him

you'll lead him here the rest of you

away here and when he comes we'll seize

him and hold him prisoner then together

with Judas and other of his disciples

who feel as I do that he should use his

power will proclaiming King you're sure

he's worthy to be our King I'm sure I've

seen his great works everywhere people

greet him as a savior his disciples

would die for him all that's needed is

- for him to become a man of action it's a

- bold idea that appeals to me I say it's.

Worth trying

king in Israel go to the marriage Day

you now to prepare to receive a guest

certain task so far I failed yet you set

preach adoption his doctrine is

blasphemy what is that hypocrite no of

the law he's not a hypocrite father he

believes what he teaches you defend him

told you yes that's why you won't go

back to my teaching this man has

poisoned your mind with his crazy

ranting you're wrong I've heard this

magic is such that it fails father

judge him when you don't know him I'd

like to have him in judgment before me I

would soon show you judge not

Our village is honored by the visit of a

carpenter Deb I asked

Moscow

what shall I do to inherit eternal life

what is written in the law Haridas thou

thou shalt love the Lord thy God with

all thy heart and with all thy soul and

with all thy strength and with all thy

mind and thy neighbor as thyself thou

hast answered write this do thou shalt

live and who is my neighbor a certain

man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho

and fell among thieves which stripped

him of his raiment and wounded him and

departed leaving him half dead and by

chance they came down a certain priest

that way and when he saw him he passed

by on the other side and likewise a.

Levite when he was at the place came and

looked on him and passed by on the other

side but a certain Samaritan as he

journeyed came where he was and when he

saw him he had compassion on him and

went to him and bound up his wounds

pouring in oil and wine and set him on

his own beast and brought him to an inn

and took care of him and on tomorrow

when he departed he took out two pence

and gave them to the host and said unto

him take care of him and whatsoever thou

spendest more when I come again I will

repay which now of these three thinkest

thou was neighbour unto him that fell

among thieves he that showed mercy on

him go and

like.
