154:2.4 This was the week that [[Nathaniel]] and [[James Zebedee]] [[suffered]] from more than a slight [[illness]]. For three days and nights they were acutely afflicted with a [[painful]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICD-10_Chapter_XI:_Diseases_of_the_digestive_system digestive] disturbance. On the third night [[Jesus]] sent [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salome Salome], [[James, the Apostle|James]]'s [[mother]], to her [[rest]], while he ministered to his [[suffering]] [[apostles]].

Never once, throughout all of his [[eventful]] life in the [[flesh]], did [[Jesus]] [[engage]] in any sort of [[supernatural]] ministration to any member of his [[earth]] [[family]] or in behalf of any one of his [[immediate]] [[Disciples|followers]].
