Judas' Mother

Ah, Judas, my son, my son! Dead and gone away from me! And it all goes back to him following this Jesus. And he was meant for greater things than following an itinerant preacher. And Jesus is dead, too! Ah, Judas, my son!

I could have told my son that Jesus' teaching was not what he wanted. There was too much that was against what the Priests taught. And I never heard a thing about chasing those Romans out. But then, when have our children ever listened to their parents? Especially after they grew up and became adults! But now Judas is dead and gone from me, and it is all the fault of this Jesus. If He had not enticed my son to follow, Judas would still be here. Ah well, we cannot order life to be as we want! But I will always miss my precious son, Judas!
