Two from Galilee page 10 by ric gustafson
" Joachim".
He stopped the wooden plow. He looked up. Running toward him was his wife Hannah.
" Hannah, what is it?".
She caught up to him under a fig tree. " What's the matter?".
" It's Mary". She tried to catch her breath. " You must come quickly".
" What's going on?".
" Mary's telling crazy stories again".
Joachim looked at her dumbstruck. " What kind of stories?".
" She told me she is with child".
" Joseph's?". Anger came to his voice. " I'll kill him".
" She said she is going to bear an unnatural child".
" Unnatural?".
" A holy child".
" Please try to talk to her".
" I'll try".
