Jesus leaving the Parental Home (click for larger image) "When Issa had attained the age of thirteen years, the epoch when an Israelite should take a wife, The house where his parents earned their living by carrying on a modest trade began to be a place of meeting for rich and noble people, desirous of having for a son-in-law the young Issa, already famous for his edifying discourses in the name of the Almighty. Then it was that Issa left the parental house in secret." Text excerpt from The Unknown Life of Jesus Christ Copyright ©2003 www.SteamChip.com |
