The Histor Risk It

Any More.  And When I Ask,  'Not Even For Freedom?' They Reply,  'Not

Even For Freedom,  Because What Is The Use Of Freedom To Us If We Are

Slain.'  Indolent Beasts! They Lack Enthusiasm.  And Now I Find You.

You Are A Master Of Oratory.  You Say That You Will Conquer With The

Spirit.  Come With Me!  Descend Into The Valley And Inspire Them With

Ardour.  The Legions Are Ours,  Our Weapons Are Of Perfect Temper,

Nothing Is Wanting But Fire,  And That You Have.  The King Must Be

Allied With The Zealot,  Otherwise The Kingdom Cannot Be Conquered.

Come Down With Me.  Tell Them That You Are The Prophet.  Incite Them

Against Jerusalem,  And Exclaim: 'It Is God's Will!'  If Only Fire Can

Be Made To Burn Within Them,  They Will March Like The Very Devil,

Overcome The Foreigners,  And You Will Instruct Them In Solomon's Temple

About The Messiah.  You Can Tell Them That He Is Coming,  Or That You

Yourself Are He,  Just As You Please.  Then,  According To Your Desire,

You Can Establish Your Kingdom,  And All The Glory Of The World Will Lie

At Your Feet As At Those Of A God.  Come,  Prophet,  You Give Me The

Word,  And I'll Give You The Sword!"

 

"Begone,  You Tempter Of Hell!" Exclaimed Jesus And His Eye Shot Forth A

Ray Of Light That The Other Could Not Bear.

 

And Then Jesus Was Once More Alone Among The Rocks,  Under The Open Sky.

 

It Was Under The Sacred Sky Of The Desert Where His Father Came Down To

Him That His Spirit Became Quite Free--His Heart More Animated,  Glowing

With Love.  And Thus Was Jesus Perfected.  Leaving The Desert,  He Then

Sought Out The Fertile Land; He Sought Out Men.

 

His Earthly Task Stood Clear And Fixed Before Him.

The Lake Of Gennesaret,  Also Called The Sea Of Galilee,  Lies To The

East Of Nazareth,  Where The Land Makes A Gradual Descent,  And Where,

Among The Hills And The Fertile Plains,  Pleasant Villages Are Situated.

The Mountains Of Naphtali,  Which In Some Places Rise Up Steeply From

Its Banks,  Were Clothed With Herbage In The Days Of David.  But

Gradually,  As Stranger Peoples Cultivated Them,  Fertility Descended To

The Hills And Valleys.

 

Near Where The Jordan Flows Into The Sea,  On The Left Of The River

Under The Sandy Cliffs Of Bethsaida,  A Small Cedar Forest,  The Seeds Of

Which May Have Been Blown Thither From Lebanon,  Grows Close Down To The

Shore Of The Lake.  A Fisher-Boat,  Rocking In The Shade On The Dark

Waters,  Was Tied To One Of The Trees.  The Holes In It Were Stuffed

With Seaweed,  The Beams Fastened With Olive Twigs.  Two Tall Poles

Crossed Were Intended For The Sail,  Which Now Lay Spread Out In The

Boat Because The Boatman Was Sleeping On It.  The Brown Stuff,  Made Of

Camel's Hair,  Was The Man's Most Valuable Possession.  On The Water It

Caught The Wind For Him,  On Land It Served As A Cloak,  If He Slept It

Formed His Bed.

 

The Little Elderly Man's Face Was Tickled By A Cedar Twig For So Long

That At Length He Awoke.  He Saw A Young Woman Sitting On A Rock.  She

Was Just Going To Hurry Off With Her Round Basket When The Fisherman

Called Loudly To Her; "Well,  Beka,  Daughter Of Manasseh,  Whither Are

You Taking Your Ivory White Feet?"

 

"My Feet Are As Brown As Yours," Replied Beka.  "Stop Mocking At Me,

Simon."

 

"How Can I Be Mocking At You?  You're A Fisherman's Child,  Like Me.

But Your Basket Is Too Heavy For You."

 

"I Am Taking My Father His Dinner."

 

"Manasseh Has Had A Good Catch.  Look,  Smoke Is Rising Yonder Behind

The Palms Of Hium.  He Is Cooking The Fish.  But I Have Eaten Nothing

Since Yesterday At The Sixth Hour."

 

"I Can Well Believe That,  Simon.  The Fish Of The Lake Of Gennesaret Do

Not Swim Ready-Cooked Into The Mouth.  He Who Lies Like A Child In The

Cradle,  And Lets The Gods Provide----!"

 

Simon,  With His Legs Apart In Order To Preserve The Balance,  Stood Up

In The Boat.  "Beka," He Said,  "Let The Gods Alone,  They Won't Feed Us;

They Eat The Best That Men Have."

 

"Then Hold To The One God Who Feeds The Birds."
