160:0.1 On Sunday morning, September 18, [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]] announced that no [[work]] would be [[planned]] for the coming week. All of the [[apostles]], except [[Nathaniel]] and [[Thomas, the Apostle|Thomas]], went [[home]] to [[visit]] their [[families]] or to [[sojourn]] with [[friends]]. This week [[Jesus]] enjoyed a period of almost complete [[rest]], but [[Nathaniel]] and [[Thomas, the Apostle|Thomas]] were very [[busy]] with their [[discussions]] with a certain [[Greek]] [[philosopher]] from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandria Alexandria] named Rodan. This [[Greek]] had recently become a [[disciple]] of [[Jesus]] through the [[teaching]] of one of [[Abner]]'s [[associates]] who had conducted a [[mission]] at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandria Alexandria]. Rodan was now [[earnestly]] [[engaged]] in the task of [[harmonizing]] his [[philosophy]] of life with [[Jesus]]' new religious [[teachings]], and he had come to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magdala Magadan] hoping that [[the Master]] would talk these [[problems]] over with him. He also [[desired]] to secure a firsthand and [[authoritative]] version of the [[gospel]] from either [[Jesus]] or one of his [[apostles]]. Though [[the Master]] declined to enter into such a [[conference]] with Rodan, he did [[receive]] him [[graciously]] and [[immediately]] directed that [[Nathaniel]] and [[Thomas, the Apostle|Thomas]] should [[listen]] to all he had to say and tell him about the [[gospel]] in return.
