28 And after many days he went to measure up his grain, but not a kernel could he find.
29 And then he called the harvesters and said to them, Where is my grain?
30 They answered him and said, We did according to your word; we gathered up and burned the stalks with broken blades, and not a stalk was left to carry to the barn.
31 And Jesus said, If God saves only those who have no broken blades, who have been perfect in his sight, who will be saved?
32 And the accusers hung their heads in shame; and Jesus went his way.
CHAPTER 28.
Udraka gives a feast in Jesus’ honor. Jesus speaks on the unity of God and the brotherhood of life. Criticises the priesthood. Becomes the guest of a farmer.
Benares is the sacred city of the Brahms, and in Benares Jesus taught; Udraka was his host.
2 Udraka made a feast in honor of his guest, and many high born Hindu priests and scribes were there.
3 And Jesus said to them, With much delight I speak to you concerning life—the brotherhood of life.
