140:0.1 Just before noon on Sunday, January 12, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/27_AD A.D. 27], [[Jesus]] called the [[apostles]] together for their [[ordination]] as [[public]] [[preachers]] of the [[gospel]] of [[the kingdom]]. The twelve were [[expecting]] to be called almost any day; so this morning they did not go out far from the shore to fish. Several of them were lingering near the shore repairing their nets and tinkering with their fishing paraphernalia.

140:0.2 As [[Jesus]] started down the seashore calling [[the apostles]], he first hailed [[Andrew, the Apostle|Andrew]] and [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], who were fishing near the shore; next he signaled to [[James, the Apostle|James]] and [[John, the Apostle|John]], who were in a boat near by, [[visiting]] with their [[father]], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebedee Zebedee], and mending their nets. [[Two]] by two he gathered up the other [[apostles]], and when he had assembled all twelve, he [[journeyed]] with them to the highlands north of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capernaum Capernaum], where he proceeded to instruct them in [[preparation]] for their [[formal]] [[ordination]].

140:0.3 For once all twelve of the [[apostles]] were [[silent]]; even [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] was in a [[reflective]] [[mood]]. At last the long-waited-for hour had come! They were going apart with [[the Master]] to [[participate]] in some sort of [[solemn]] [[ceremony]] of [[personal]] [[consecration]] and [[collective]] [[dedication]] to the [[sacred]] work of [[representing]] their Master in the [[proclamation]] of the coming of [[The Kingdom|his Father's kingdom]].
