06 For the past week and a half, Jesus seemed to be in every dream he had somehow.While he was trying to free himself from the dream, the scene of the dream in which he had traveled was still vivid in his mind.Disturbed by the sight of Jesus walking on the sea, the disciples said, "walking on water like a spirit".Jesus told them bluntly, "Be happy, it's none other than me. Don't be afraid." Randall answered him, "God, if it were you, I'll go to the water and walk to you." Jesus said , "Come on." Steve Randall got out of the boat and actually walked to Jesus from the water.But when he saw a strong wind blowing on the sea, he was frightened and began to sink, and couldn't help shouting "Father, save me." Immediately, the highly respected Nathan Randall reached out and grabbed him, and said to him He said, "Oh boy, what are you doubting? Have faith!" Steve Randall was rescued and has believed ever since.It was a dream so crazy that it took his breath away.

He finally woke up, opened his eyes, only to find that it was Darina's soft breasts, her bare left breast pressed against his lips, that made it hard for him to breathe.She leaned casually against him, pink pajamas undone, one bare breast rubbing his mouth. He had been awakened in many strange ways in the past by strange dreams, but he had never before been startled from a ship in the Atlantic by the touch of a woman's breast.His thoughts were still in the water, but in an instant Jesus Christ and the Honorable Nathan Randall were far away from him. Darina smiled down at him. "How about it, do you admit that you can't think of a better way to wake up? Do you think there is a monarch who has been treated better than this?"

He knew it was another fresh little game of love from Darina, and he wasn't in the mood for it right now, but he also knew it was Darina's signal that the stake in the deal was as much as she could give. That was all he had, so he was cooperative.He reacted as he should.He kissed her crimson nipple tenderly until it began to swell, harden and suck. "Naughty, Steve," she said half-jokingly, "don't even try to do anything, I just want you to wake up smiling." She looked up and pursed her lips, as if to judge he. "But you're cute." She leaned over and put her hand into his blanket, stroked between his legs, and after teasing him for a while, quickly withdrew her hand. "Hey, don't waste your time," she said.

He raised his hand to pull her closer, but she twisted away, jumping up. "Behave yourself, dear. I told the waiter to get us breakfast, and he'll bring it anytime." "Maybe an hour or two," Randall complained. "Take a shower first and get dressed." She started to walk to the small living room next door.Their small room was in the upper class of a passenger ship bound for France. "You know, there's a newspaper on board that says Channel 8A has a landscape documentary about London that I don't want to miss." Darina is glad that there is CCTV on board, showing movies all day long, and she won't let the journey very lonely.

He looked towards the cabin window, but the brown curtains were still drawn.He called to her, "Darina, how's the weather?" "The sun is just coming out," she replied next door, "and the sea is as calm as glass," He leaned on his elbow and looked around their special cabin.There were two beds in the room, and a long metal cabinet with four drawers was placed between the two beds. On the cabinet was a white telephone on his side, and a white lamp on her side.Her underwear—a thin bra and panties—was thrown on the brown armchair.At the foot of his bed, in front of the mirror of a tall dressing table, was a bright yellow chair.

He listened to the throb of the steamer's engines and the splitting of seawater.Then he heard the blaring of the CCTV in the living room and the hum of the announcer. Randall sank back into the pillows on the bed and began to relive the time from New York to Southampton, which had been nearly five days. When he agreed to do public affairs for the International New Testament, he didn't intend to take Darina Nicholson with him.He had thought of going with Wheeler so that he could concentrate on getting the background he needed to know and the work he had promised to do.Darina was too crazy for such a trip and wanted to go.It's not that she takes up too much of his time, it's just that her endless chatter and constant sex temptations will confuse him and forget his purpose.Also, her presence would embarrass him.Wheeler and the people who work for him, the experts, the academics, the theorists, the people who have to do with the "second resurrection" in Amsterdam certainly don't have a common language with a woman like Darina.Randall guessed that she was as out of place in that crowd as a stripper was at a Christian rally.

It's not that Darina looks cheap, but because she looks a bit seductive, flirtatious, and doesn't use her brains, making things happen regardless of the occasion.In fact, she is attractive and sexy.She was tall, with a supermodel-like figure, and very slender, but her breasts were not.Her breasts were firm and plump, and when she wore low-cut clothes, it was obvious that she couldn't hide them, and she seemed to be sneaking out restlessly.She has shoulder-length brown hair and her blue eyes are set deep.Her cheeks were thin, her skin was fair, her cherry mouth matched with full lips.She wriggled when she walked, with alluring parts of her body always swaying to the sides, attracting the attention of men.She had the slenderest legs of any girl Randall had ever seen.

After he got to know her, she gave him everything he needed, but he didn't want to take her as a companion on such an exciting journey, he wanted to be faithful to the task he set out to undertake. He had given her every choice.Since he was only there for a month or two, and he would be too busy to take care of her during that time, he begged her to come back to Kansas City to visit her parents, family, and high school friends.He would also pay for all her expenses in his absence, and she would be able to meet him again in New York when he returned.But she just won't do it.He sent her to play in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, or to spend a month in Hawaii, or travel to South America for six weeks.But the answer was: "No, no, no, Steve, I want to be with you, if not I will kill myself."

So with a sigh, he capitulates and assigns her as secretary, knowing that no one will believe that their relationship is limited to that, and in the end he doesn't care about that much.In fact, there were some advantages to taking her along.First, he hated sleeping alone, and felt lonely even after drinking.Darina was a wonderful person who could take away his loneliness. In the week before the departure, besides deciding whether to take Darina with me, there were several other personal matters to decide.He was busy in those days, working from dawn to midnight, arranging affairs at home and at the office.Ever since Wheeler told him of Ostia Antica's earth-shattering discovery, the first irresistible re-establishment of Christ, he had been wracked with curiosity, impatient to know every detail of this secret discovery. a detail.Wheeler procrastinated.He told him that there would be plenty of time during the ocean crossing for him to learn more about it, and that there would be more details waiting for Randall when he got to Amsterdam.Randall was tempted to tell Wanda, Joe Hawkins and his staff about their new business, but he had promised Wheeler to keep quiet until the publishers agreed with the complete International New Testament. .The main thing is that Randall wanted to tell his father and Tom Carey the news, because he felt that the earth-shaking news would surprise each of them, but he had sworn to keep it a secret, and he also That's all.

Every day he called Oak City, speaking to his mother or Claire, who reassured him that his father, while still partially paralyzed, was recovering and getting better.He called San Francisco once, and with difficulty he explained to Judy that his plan to have her come to New York for two weeks in the summer had to be postponed.He told her that he had a temporary special mission to go abroad, but he promised that they would get together in the autumn.Then he asked his daughter to ask her mother to answer the phone.He wondered if Barbara had changed her mind about the divorce.Barbara calmly replied no, adding that she was meeting with a lawyer next week.Very well, Randall told her grimly, he'd let Thad Crawford handle everything.

The next morning, Randall consulted with Crawford and outlined his case.His lawyer, sporting a gray beard on either side, was trying to convince Randall not to tell his wife.Seeing that Randall was uncompromising, he had to do some necessary recording and preparation for the court with great reluctance.Several times that week he met with two lawyers, Crawford and Ogden Tory, to make the final push on several unresolved matters concerning Cosmos Enterprises' purchase of Randall.Anguished, Randall decided to call Jim McLoughlin in Washington and arrange a meeting with him.Randall should at least tell him why he changed his mind and rejected the Raker Society account.Jim wouldn't understand, but he had to make an effort.Unfortunately, Jim McLaughlin was sent to leave here with a very confidential mission and could not be contacted.He wouldn't be back in Washington for months, so Randall left a phone call for McLoughlin to call Thad Crawford.There is no other choice.McLoughlin had only the worst possible way to get the bad news. When it was time to set sail, Steve Randall finally became happier. Today, he lies on his side on a luxurious bed in a comfortable state room.Next to the phone is a pile of souvenirs and knick-knacks that Darina collected along the way.Randall reached over the phone for a list of daily activities on board the ship since embarking.There are 5 books, each with 4 pages, the first two pages are written in English, and the last two pages are written in French. The 4 above are the activities of the past 4 days.The fifth one lists today's shows.In the morning there will be nothing.Because they could reach Southampton at dawn. Randall unfolded these lists that looked like big playing cards, only to find that there was not much content on them.But overall he was satisfied with the trip, which was both restful and exciting.It's just that there was a very uncomfortable experience shortly after boarding the boat on the first day and sailing, but the rest can be said to be perfect. He looked at the schedule for the first day. At the top of the table was written "French Navigation Company", decorated with the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower, marking the first day. daily activities Friday, June 7 15 minutes before 6 p.m. Departs New York at 2:30pm 4:00Music Cafe As he put together the activity sheets, he recalled his own first day on the voyage, and the memories flashed like a camera. They boarded the gangplank to first class, and he followed Darina.Darina was flamboyantly dressed (she wore a see-through jacket and no bra, a wide belt around the waist, a very short silk skirt, black stockings, and prominent high-top boots), which attracted other The male passengers and crew stared at her.They were ushered into a traveling banquet in George L. Wheeler's private room, set just off the entrance to the opulent theater. Wheeler's wife took their son to their villa in Canada, so the dinner was not a social one, but a business one.The private room was full of gay men and sweet Salvation Army ladies from the church press.Some of them are new faces that Randall has never seen before. They must be professors or theorists at a glance, and most of them are accompanied by their middle-aged wives.Waiters in white uniforms brought champagne to them as soon as Darina entered the room on his arm.As he busied himself greeting acquaintances while introducing his "secretary," Randall noticed Naomi Dunn standing not far from the beaming Wheeler. Randall was about to walk up to her when Wheeler spotted him and came over to take his hand. "A historic trip, Steve, historic!" he declared. "This beautiful lady is—is she your secretary? The lady you told me about?" Randall nervously made the introduction.It seems the publisher is absolutely smitten with Darina.He knew about this woman in advance from Tori. "You're doing God's work, Miss Nicholson. You're serving humanity as a whole by helping Mr. Randall. I don't think you know anybody here...Steve, I'd like to introduce you to your lovely lady Here you go, don't you mind?" Wheeler walks away with Darina, and Randall finds himself alone with Naomi and Dunn for a moment.She was standing poised, prim, with her back against the wallpaper, sipping champagne slowly. "Hi Naomi, can I call you Naomi?" "Of course, we will work side by side." "I hope so. It's very kind of you to come and see us off." she laughed. "Sorry, but I'm not here to see you off. I'm going with you and Mr. Wheeler." Randall didn't hide his surprise. "George didn't mention it, I'm so glad." "Mr. Wheeler always takes me with him when he travels. I'm his memory bank, encyclopedia, and New Testament portable concordance. Mr. Wheeler knows the publishing business inside and out. But it's up to me to do background biblical research. Journeys I am also your advisor, and I am willing to serve you at any time." "I'm so happy, so happy," Randall said. Naomi studied his expression with interest. "Really?" She saw right through him. "I'd better hang around. We start our first lesson tomorrow afternoon." Five minutes later, Wheeler dragged Randall to the corner of the room and whispered in his ear, "You have to meet two big men. This man is very important to our future. They know our secrets, and of course, they are very important." Support. They are actually part of the project. We would be alone without them. One is Dr. Stonehill of the American Bible Society and the other is Dr. Evans of the National Church Advisory Council." Dr. Stonehill, the representative of the American Bible Society, was bald, sullen, and somewhat headstrong, with a penchant for statistics. "Virtually every church in America supports our work and gives us financial assistance," he told Randall. or the latest edition of the review. We publish the Bible, or Bible Summaries, in 1,200 different languages. Most recently, in one year alone, we together with the American Bible Society distributed 150 million copies of the Bible worldwide . Mind you, in just one year. We're proud of that." He acted like a proud rooster as if he had distributed those 150 million Bibles.Randall didn't know what to say. "Impressive," he mumbled. "There's a reason why the whole world accepts it," said Dr. Stonehill. "The Bible was written for all people and for all times. Perhaps as Pope Gregory said, the Bible is like a river." , an elephant can swim in it and a lamb can wade through it. Gregory of the sixteenth century, you know." Of course Landler knew, his head was starting to feel dizzy. "With this discovery, the New Testament is even more brilliant." Dr. Stonehill is still chattering tirelessly, "I dare to predict that the circulation of our association will also increase tenfold. So far, the New Testament has 7,959 editions. But with that part—by God, a new discovery I dare not call its name—with that part, subsequent editions will set off a new upsurge in the worship of our Lord. In James In the King James Version, Jesus said only 36,450 words. But now, now—” Now, Randall just wants someone to help him get away from the eloquent doctor. After a few minutes he slipped away on the pretext of looking for water to drink.But after a while, he was caught by Wheeler to meet Dr. Evans, the head of the National Church Advisory Council. Dr. Evans was better.His hair is half-shedding, his expression is not gloomy at all, and his speech is measured without making you feel overly enthusiastic.He was more likeable, and what he said was more interesting to Randall than the statistics that Dr. Stonehill said. "The National Council of Churches," said Evans, "is the official agency of the 33 church missions of the three major churches in the United States—Protestant, Orthodox, and Catholic. Without our backing, no new Bible will be published." It is impossible to achieve great success. We have supported Mr. Wheeler's project from the beginning, and at the same time, we are very satisfied with Professor Monty's archaeological discovery of great significance in the history of Christianity. Nothing can match it On a par, its significance has far surpassed the scrolls found in the Dead Sea in Israel and the papyrus documents found in the village of Hammadi in Egypt. The full significance of this discovery is currently difficult to estimate.” "What's the whole point of it?" Randall asked. "Of course, it's the first confirmation that Jesus actually existed." "Oh, that's nothing," said Evans, "after all, only a few skeptical schools, mainly in Germany, have ever denied and doubted the existence of such a person as Jesus. In fact, most scholars who study the Bible have never been questioned by Jesus." The existence of the savior has caused too much confusion. We have always believed that our savior also had a glorious life like Socrates, Plato, and Alexander. The Assyrians and Persians left little information about their famous leaders. Yet we never doubted their existence. As for Jesus, we say to ourselves, his sphere of activity was limited, his life was too short, and his followers were ordinary people. Therefore we cannot expect to Village preachers would have people who built temples or made statues of gods for him. Even his death was insignificant in Jesus' day." Randall had never thought about this before. "Do you really feel neglected?" "When he died? Of course. From the standpoint of the Roman Empire, the trial of Jesus in Jerusalem was just a small incident of disrupting social order in a small place. There were hundreds of such cases in Rome. Even if we look at the relevant The report of the trial process of Jesus is worth nothing to us today as a routine report in AD 30. Mr. Randall, many scholars who study the "Bible" do not know anything about Jesus that can be collected. I am very surprised and fortunate in the information and written materials that people have provided. However, in various gospels, we do have such testimony. Courts have always relied on the testimony of witnesses as a basis for fact, and the Gospels also give this evidence. Scholars know the lack of details about Jesus' life story because the witnesses didn't give much importance to Jesus' life story and his saving lives. His followers also didn't feel the need to record history because, to them, History has come to an end. They are not interested in what Jesus looked like, but in what He said and did. They feel that there is no need to give a detailed account of Jesus for posterity, because they expect that He will appear in heaven before long. But Some layman, ordinary people will never understand this, so doubts are increasing. In our time, whoever has been educated in biography and history, Jesus appears to them as unreal, a fabricated figure in folk tales and mythological characters, like the legendary Hercules or Paul Bunyan." "So now with the new Bible, you feel like their doubts can be removed." "Abolished forever," said Dr. Evans firmly. "When the new Bible comes out, all doubts in the world will cease. Jesus, the Savior, will be fully accepted. The evidence we have is as strong as he left. It’s like taking a photo or taking a documentary. Once the world knows that Jesus has a younger brother, in order to prevent people from doubting, they sort out and record the first-hand information about his life in advance; once people know that the manuscript that records the real scene of his ascension is preserved Come down, the world will be stunned, and there will be a frenzy of belief. Yes, Mr. Randall, what our Mr. Wheeler and his colleagues are going to introduce to the world will not only eliminate mistrust, but also in A seed of faithfulness and hope is planted in the hearts of mankind. For centuries, mankind has hoped to believe in a true savior, and now they can finally. Mr. Randall, the journey you are about to embark on will be unforgettable, and we all Yes. I wish you a pleasant trip!" Randall was still dazed, unable to figure out the full implications of his new discovery. He took a sip of champagne and had only one thought in mind, to find Darina Nicholson. He looked around and found her near the door.Just then a French officer lowered his head and whispered something in her ear, she nodded and followed the officer out the door in a hurry.Curious about the sudden departure, Randall poured another glass of champagne, trying to find out where she had gone as he drank. He passed through the crowd and came to the elevator outside.Darina was nowhere to be seen.He was about to go to the lounge to look for it when he suddenly saw her standing in front of the open window on the balcony.She was not alone, she was talking eagerly with a young man.Darina was 24 years old, and the young man was only a year or two older than her. His bony figure could not be accommodated by a crumpled old dress.He had light-tan hair cut stiffly in a small crew cut and a chin that was too clean-shaven.He seemed to be begging Darina for something. Suddenly, he remembered that Darina had seen a photo jokingly with him. Randall recognized the young man. This was her former boyfriend Roy Ingram in Kansas City.He had been an accountant, or at least planned to do so.Before Randall could figure out why he was here, Darina saw him, waved him hastily, and ushered the young man in to him. Randall originally tried to escape, but it was too late, and the two men had already come to him.Darina holds a bouquet of gardenias.Randall can't believe there will be gardenias this season. Darina had a happy smile on her face. "Roy, this is my boss, Mr. Steve Randall... Ah, this is Roy Ingram, a friend of mine from Kansas City." Randall shook his hand. "Yes, Miss Nicholson has told me about you." Roy Ingram looked embarrassed. "Nice to meet you, sir. Darina wrote me about her work with you, and said she would go with you to work for you in Europe. I—I thought I'd stop by and see her, and wish her the best of luck." Have a safe trip." "You're crazy," Randall said, "to come all the way from Kansas just to say goodbye." Ingram blushed and stammered, "No, I—I have a little business in New York, and, yes, yes, thanks." "Then I'll leave you two alone," Randall said. "I'd better go back to the party." Once Randall was safely back in his room, he remembered the first time he heard about this Roy Ingram.It was the night he had just met Darina Nicholson.She was one of several girls sent by an agency with an open call for secretary.Randall was working in his office, and he rang the bell for Wanda to pick up some materials.After Wanda came in, Randall saw Darina through the open door behind her and saw Darina sitting on the chair opposite Wanda with her slender legs crossed. "Who is she?" Randall asked momentarily. "A girl who came to apply for a job. I was interviewing her just now, and she is not very good." "Maybe this position is not suitable for her. Let her in, Wanda, don't be disturbed, and remember to close the door." Things in the future seem to be too simple, without hindrance.Her name was Darina, and she had arrived from Kansas City two months ago, because her creative talents were not available there, and she wanted to try her hand at film and television in New York.There have been many promises and opportunities, but they have not been acted out, and she is almost penniless.So she thought about working for a big company that deals with celebrities, because that could be fun.Randall liked her easy-going attitude, and her breasts and long legs.He poured her a drink and mentioned the names of several customers and friends.He told her that he was impressed by her personality and didn't want her talents wasted in office chores.He'll find her a better job to do.By the way, is she free to have dinner with him that night? After dinner, she followed him back to his apartment.Only then did he ask if he had a regular boyfriend.She admitted that she had flirted with a boy named Roy from Kansas City, but she had flirted with him before she left home for New York because he was too immature and dull. "Do you want a regular boyfriend here?" he asked her. "That depends on what kind of person you are." "Someone who will take care of you." He insisted. "If I like him, why not?" "do you like me?" She spent the night with him, and the next day she moved in with him, which he always thought was a fair deal.Darina wanted a life of comfort, luxury, high society and privileged surroundings, and she got it all.Randall needed a young woman with no real entanglements, and he had that.No doubt, a fair trade.However, now that he saw her with her faithful boyfriend, he felt a sudden pang of guilt. She came back to Randall a few minutes later, the room was buzzing, and she seemed to be in bliss, holding the bouquet of gardenias. "I sent Roy away," she said. "Are you jealous?" Fool, he thought. "What does he want?" Randall asked. "He doesn't want me to go with you, he wants me to go back to Kansas City with him, he wants to marry me." "What did you tell him?" "I told him I was going on a trip with you. Are you happy now, dear?" He felt more and more guilty.He couldn't have a permanent commitment to her, and it was inappropriate for her to refuse a marriage proposal from someone who would give her a permanent home because of him.However, there is nothing wrong with that.Giving a young woman all she wants isn't corrupt, if there's anything vile, it's him taking advantage of her powerlessness with his father figure and his wealth and power.She should belong to a man her age who can take care of her and give her three kids and a washer and dryer to live with.She should belong to someone like Roy Ingram.But she prefers "pleasant travel" on a luxury liner.No matter what, this is a good thing for him and her. As for morality, go to hell! "Well, Darina," he said, "there's champagne in the house." That was all he could remember of that first day.The next day, the next day at sea. Leaning back against the bed frame, he picked up the second activity sheet and glanced at it. daily activities Saturday, June 8 7:30 am - 9:30 am Breakfast (Cham Pot Restaurant) 10 o'clock fitness exercise (swimming pool, D area deck, follow your trainer's arrangement) He tossed the list aside, trying to recall everything that happened the next day. Wheeler and Naomi Dunn had booked separate bedrooms in a plush stateroom in upper class.Randall and Darina had just had a quick breakfast when they came down.Randall promised Wheeler and Naomi to work with them in an hour, then took Darina for a quick walk around the deck to get some exercise, and the two bet $10 that the boat would run from noon today to tomorrow What is the distance traveled between noon.Then they took the elevator down to the D floor, and then he changed into his swimming trunks and Darina in the most revealing bikini he had ever seen.They swam for 30 minutes, and then Darina was off to find a show by herself, or hang out on the boat, or watch a movie, or learn to shoot a parrot.She had no interest in his novels, or in serious conversation or reading.She just loves non-stop action, or meeting famous people, if she can find it. Randall walked straight to a secluded cabin in front of the library and office, where Wheeler and Naomi Dunn sat at a card table.Wheeler took off his coat and loosened his tie, and they were waiting for him.Seeing him come in, Naomi took out the research records from a leather briefcase. Randall sat with them, quickly forgetting the modern floating palace he was in.Gradually, he found his thoughts went back a long time ago, across many centuries, to an early melee era, that is, first century Palestine, where the Jews were occupied by Rome and lived in dire straits. After George L. Wheeler lit a Cuban cigar he'd bought on the docks, he began his brief narrative. "Steve, to fully understand and judge the significance of Professor Monty's discovery in Ostia Antica, you have to realize how little we knew about Jesus Christ before then. Oh, of course, If you believe in the four Gospels as the will and revelation of God, then you think you know enough about Jesus. But most people didn’t think that before.” "While Dr. Evans told you at a cocktail party that most biblical scholars never doubted the existence of Jesus, some religious theorists and non-religious historians do not hold the same view. So There is no doubt that as soon as you ask to prove the authenticity of Jesus in the circumstances at that time, trouble will come. Ernest Renan pointedly said that the historical facts we know about Jesus add up to less than one page. Many famous scholars Scholars, such as those in Germany and the Netherlands, believe that the facts are not enough to make a complete sentence. There are also scholars who believe that everything about Jesus is pure fiction and nothing more than a myth. Yet strangely, in the past 100 years, published There are as many as 7,000 so-called biographies of Jesus." "But how?" Randall asked. "What are the biographies set against? The Gospels?" "Yes," said Wheeler, "based on the four main writers—Matthew, Mark, Luke, John—and a few others. The four gospel writers did not live with Jesus. , and did not see him in person. They just collected some oral traditions, some early descriptions of the Christian church, which were written on parchment decades after Jesus' presumed death time. In about the third or fourth century, it became our Contents of the New Testament." George L. Wheeler finished his cigarette, looked again at the papers Naomi had placed in front of him, and continued smoking. "What would we know about the life of Jesus if we only relied on the descriptions in the four Gospels? The stories in the New Testament spanned less than 100 years. Of the twenty-seven books of the New Testament, only four Volumes really talk about the life of Jesus, and these four books account for less than 45% of the entire New Testament. And do these descriptions really give us an understanding of his life? They only write about Jesus when he was 1 and 12 years old, and then 90% of his life is actually not mentioned. We know very little about his childhood and youth in his 20s. We don't even know his exact date of birth, he The place where he studied and his occupation. We don't know what he looks like, but the Jesus we know from Christian materials can be summed up in one sentence...Naomi, read the document in your hand to Steve. " Randall turned his attention to Naomi Dunne.Her face was expressionless, her eyes fixed on the document she was holding. She didn't meet Randall's eyes, "Here's the outline, according to the writers of the four Gospels." She began to read aloud in a monotonous voice, "Jesus may have been born in Nazareth or Bethlehem, in the great Hebrew Late dynasty of Rhodes. He may have been sent to defend Egypt. He may have spent his childhood in a town called Nazareth in Galilee. For his childhood the authors use only 12 words, saying only that he He is very smart and ambitious. When he was about 12 years old, he went to a temple in Jordan and met a group of highly educated doctors. After that, his history was blank. It was not until the age of 32 that Jesus seemed to appear again. We didn’t know He was baptized, and John, who was baptized for him, was sent by God to choose a savior. After Jesus was baptized, he went to a wilderness and meditated for 40 days." "He went to the wilderness," Randall interrupted. "Has more than one author mentioned this?" "Marco, Matthew and Luke did," Naomi said, "but John didn't." She went on reading the document. "Jesus went to Galilee after his return from the wilderness to do his preaching work. He toured Capernaum twice, and on his third journey he crossed the Sea of ​​Galilee to preach at Caldara and Nazareth. Then he went north ,在提尔和西顿讲道。最后他又回到了耶路撒冷。他隐居到耶路撒冷外的一处静地,他和他的门徒始终保持着联系。在逾越节前夕,他最后一次进耶路撒冷。他弄翻了寺庙中换钱的桌子,在寺中讲道,他然后退避到橄榄山上。在他12门徒的帮助下,他在一个朋友家里吃了晚饭。后在客西马尼的花园中被捕,桑德里姆律师团判其亵渎神灵罪。罗马统治者彼得罗纳斯亲临审判会,并判其死刑。他被钉死在戈尔戈萨沙丘上。” 内奥米放下那个文件。 她望着惠勒。“这就是四福音书上有关耶稣的历史,不用说是些谜,是大概、可能之类的事。这也是成百万的基督信徒们两千年来所能知道的作为一个人的耶稣的全部故事。” 兰德尔动了动。“我得承认,就这点史实创立了一个教会的确不够,而这更不能证实他就是上帝之子。”
