Mary of Magdala page 12 by ric gustafson
Jared looked at Asa. " You are twenty five".
" That is correct sir".
Jared stroked his chin in thought. " How is it you have not married sooner?".
Asa shrugged his shoulders. " I was married but she was not suitable".
" So what did you do?".
" I divorced her and sent her back to her parents".
" Before I arrange the ceremony, there is something I need to tell you".
" Oh yes, the dowry".
Jared sat down next to Asa.
" Something happened to Mary a couple of years ago".
He gave Jared a concerned stare. " She is not a virgin".
" Do not worry she is still a virgin".
" Then what?".
" She was kidnapped and held for ransom".
" Was she physically harmed Jared?".
" No but she has a lot of violent nightmares".
