Jmmanuel In The House Of Peter

16. "Turn away from the false teachings of the Israelite authorities and their scribes, because they will bring destruction to successive generations.

17. "The Israelites believe themselves the chosen people. By no means is this the case, because they are more disloyal and unknowing than the ignorant who lack the secret of Creation's laws."

18. And Jmmanuel spoke to the centurion, "Go, be it done for you as you have expected." And his servant became well that same hour.

19. Jmmanuel came to Peter's house and saw that his mother-in-law lay sick with a fever.

20. He touched her hand, the fever left her and she got up and served him.

21. In the evening, however, they brought to him many who were possessed; and he drove out the evil spirits through his word and made all the sick well.

22. So it came to pass that what was said through the prophet Isaiah would be fulfilled, who spoke, "He has brought us new teachings of knowledge and has taken our infirmities upon himself, and he has healed our sick."

23. When Jmmanuel saw many people around him, he gave the order to go across to the other shore.
