Leviticus 25:1,8-17, Ps:67,
Matt 14:1-12
Then they went off to tell Jesus
The death of his cousin John would have been a heavy blow to Jesus. His childhood friend had also been his adult collaborator – his precursor. The disciples would have had to support Jesus in his grief. In fact they all withdrew to a lonely place. To support the bereaved is a blessed ministry. Is there someone I could reach out to in their grief?
