A

gibed

A
new
preacher
and
a
new
doctrine
come
to
Jerusalem
.
Now
will
there
be
more
dissensions
,
and
riotings
,
and
stonings
of
prophets
.
The
gods
save
us
,
it
is
a
mad-house
.
Lodbrog
,
I
little
thought
it
of
you
.
Yet
here
you
are
,
spouting
and
fuming
as
wildly
as
any
madman
from
the
desert
about
what
shall
happen
to
you
when
you
are
dead
.
One
life
at
a
time
,
Lodbrog
.
It
saves
trouble

his
wife
cried

She
had
sat
entranced
during
the
discussion
,
with
hands
tightly
clasped
,
and
the
thought
flickered
up
in
my
mind
that
she
had
already
been
corrupted
by
the
religious
folly
of
Jerusalem
.
At
any
rate
,
as
I
was
to
learn
in
the
days
that
followed
,
she
was
unduly
bent
upon
such
matters
.
She
was
a
thin
woman
,
as
if
wasted
by
fever
.
Her
skin
was
tight-stretched
.
Almost
it
seemed
I
could
look
through
her
hands
did
she
hold
them
between
me
and
the
light
.
She
was
a
good
woman
,
but
highly
nervous
,
and
,
at
times
,
fancy-flighted
about
shades
and
signs
and
omens
.
Nor
was
she
above
seeing
visions
and
hearing
voices
.
As
for
me
,
I
had
no
patience
with
such
weaknesses
.
Yet
was
she
a
good
woman
with
no
heart
of
evil
.

I
was
on
a
mission
for
Tiberius
,
and
it
was
my
ill
luck
to
see
little
of
Miriam
.
On
my
return
from
the
court
of
Antipas
she
had
gone
into
Batanæa
to
Philip
's
court
,
where
was
her
sister
.
Once
again
I
was
back
in
Jerusalem
,
and
,
though
it
was
no
necessity
of
my
business
to
see
Philip
,
who
,
though
weak
,
was
faithful
to
Roman
will
,
I
journeyed
into
Batanæa
in
the
hope
of
meeting
with
Miriam
.
Then
there
was
my
trip
into
Idumæa
.
Also
,
I
travelled
into
Syria
in
obedience
to
the
command
of
Sulpicius
Quirinius
,
who
,
as
imperial
legate
,
was
curious
of
my
first-hand
report
of
affairs
in
Jerusalem
.
Thus
,
travelling
wide
and
much
,
I
had
opportunity
to
observe
the
strangeness
of
the
Jews
who
were
so
madly
interested
in
God
.
It
was
their
peculiarity
.
Not
content
with
leaving
such
matters
to
their
priests
,
they
were
themselves
for
ever
turning
priests
and
preaching
wherever
they
could
find
a
listener
.
And
listeners
they
found
a-plenty
.

They
gave
up
their
occupations
to
wander
about
the
country
like
beggars
,
disputing
and
bickering
with
the
rabbis
and
Talmudists
in
the
synagogues
and
temple
porches
.
It
was
in
Galilee
,
a
district
of
little
repute
,
the
inhabitants
of
which
were
looked
upon
as
witless
,
that
I
crossed
the
track
of
the
man
Jesus
.
It
seems
that
he
had
been
a
carpenter
,
and
after
that
a
fisherman
,
and
that
his
fellow-fishermen
had
ceased
dragging
their
nets
and
followed
him
in
his
wandering
life
.
Some
few
looked
upon
him
as
a
prophet
,
but
the
most
contended
that
he
was
a
madman
.
My
wretched
horse-boy
,
himself
claiming
Talmudic
knowledge
second
to
none
,
sneered
at
Jesus
,
calling
him
the
king
of
the
beggars
,
calling
his
doctrine
Ebionism
,
which
,
as
he
explained
to
me
,
was
to
the
effect
that
only
the
poor
should
win
to
heaven
,
while
the
rich
and
powerful
were
to
burn
for
ever
in
some
lake
of
fire
.
It
was
my
observation
that
it
was
the
custom
of
the
country
for
every
man
to
call
every
other
man
a
madman
.
In
truth
,
in
my
judgment
,
they
were
all
mad
.
There
was
a
plague
of
them
.
They
cast
out
devils
by
magic
charms
,
cured
diseases
by
the
laying
on
of
hands
,
drank
deadly
poisons
unharmed
,
and
unharmed
played
with
deadly
snakes
--
or
so
they
claimed
.
They
ran
away
to
starve
in
the
deserts
.
They
emerged
howling
new
doctrine
,
gathering
crowds
about
them
,
forming
new
sects
that
split
on
doctrine
and
formed
more
sects
.
"
By
Odin
,
"
I
told
Pilate
,
"
a
trifle
of
our
northern
frost
and
snow
would
cool
their
wits
.
This
climate
is
too
soft
.
In
place
of
building
roofs
and
hunting
meat
,
they
are
ever
building
doctrine
.
