sisters of Jesus page 3 by ric gustafson
Shimon had warned Damaris that a Pharisee was coming to visit.
He walked through the front door. " Peace be to all who dwell in this house".
He wore a turban and a tunic of fine linen. He had a neatly trimmed beard. He wore a gold ring.
Shimon lowered his head. " It would be an honor to join your group".
" We observe purity in two areas". He grinned. " The first is submission to Levitical purity". His voice hesitated. " The second is tithing".
" My family will commit to obeying the Law".
" Good". He smiled. " There is one more item to talk about".
" Yes".
" You are related to Yeshua Ben Joseph".
" He is my brother in law". Shimon frowned. " We do not associate with him or what he does".
" Good". He smiled. " He is a deep concern among my brothers".
Before he left, he gave a benediction to the household.
