After forty days, Avidan and Aya took Seraiah to the Temple. As they entered the Court of the Gentiles, they heard the Levites singing. Then Aya took her son to the Gate of Nicanor. There she was greeted by several new mothers. She gave the priests a pair of turtledoves. That was all she and Avidan could afford. Then she gave the priest five shekels of silver as the price of her son's redemption.

Avidan took the baby.

Aya knew today was Pentecost.

They noticed Sha'ul running toward them.

" Avidan, there is trouble ahead".

" What's the trouble?".

" The followers of that Nazarene are going around the city talking gibberish".

" The Nazarene is dead". Avidan grinned. " Who is their ringleader?".

" Today it is a man from Capernaum". Sha'ul frowned. " He used to be a fisherman".
