Jesus sends his apostles out two by two without Him. I wonder what they thought about that? They came to follow Him and now He sends them away. And I wonder what the people thought about all of these others doing miracles, too? It couldn't have been commonplace for so much news traveling around about these men healing people.
And for a time, Jesus is on His own. Was He preparing the apostles for the time when He wouldn't be with them in the flesh? Just trying to getaway Himself? Or was it so that more people would be healed? Was it all out of compassion for the crowds? I wonder what sorts of miracles the apostles did? And what did they think when the power that was in Jesus was now in them? Is this, there ability to do miracles, why they'd later argue over who was the greatest? They reported what the did to Jesus but that's all that is revealed. We can only wonder.
