Had they been able to find him, they would have thrown stones at him, the loved Son of God, Jesus, who had existed from all eternity. He offered them life and fullness of life, and they chose death. He offered them the joy of knowing the Father, and the Father’s love and forgiveness, and they headed in the opposite direction. We do that too, when we reject any of his sisters and brothers.
