Well, it's evening finally, and after that crucifixation.  I still don't understand why the 

authorities felt it necessary to kill Jesus, but I guess I'll never understand.  We buried 

Jesus in a tomb given us by Joseph, but it was so late that we couldn't complete treating 

the body.  We'll have to do that after the Sabbath.

Jesus was quite the teacher, and I guess what was wrong is that He said some things that 

threatened the system that was set up.  We never quite understood what He was saying at the 

time, and right now we still don't.  So much was so far beyond what we were taught all our 

lives untill we met Jesus.

I'm taking care of Jesus' mother.  He asked me to do that before He died.  She's really 

very upset by the whole thing, and doesn't want to talk to anybody right now.  You do 

understand, don't you? I'll talk to you more after the Sabbath, when we've had a chance to 

settle a bit.  And no, we don't know what we are going to do next.  We'll see.  After the 

Sabbath then?
