− | 165:0.2 Throughout this tour of Perea the women's corps, now numbering sixty-two, took over most of the work of ministration to the sick. This was the final period of the development of the higher spiritual aspects of the gospel of the kingdom, and there was, accordingly, an absence of miracle working. No other part of Palestine was so thoroughly worked by the apostles and disciples of Jesus, and in no other region did the better classes of citizens so generally accept the Master's teaching. | + | 165:0.2 Throughout this [[tour]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perea_(Holy_Land) Perea] [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_150#150:1._THE_WOMEN.27S_EVANGELISTIC_CORPS the women's corps], now numbering sixty-two, took over most of the [[work]] of ministration to the [[sick]].
