Most days, Jerusalem is a quiet town, but on a day when the Master is there, excitement is in the air. Is the message of eternal life true?

Esther worries about her husband, Samuel, and the journey his to make. His son Jonathan has a suggestion, but when Samuel learns the friends are Samaritans, dad has to set his boy straight on why those darned, dirty, Samaritans are to be avoided.
