Matthew validates Simon's arrangement with Praetor Quintus, Nicodemus investigates the miracle reported in the Red Quarter, and Mary receives surprise guests at her Shabbat dinner.
- I see a star.
- And if you think I'll fall for that, Eli, you must think I was born yesterday.
- Was there a Shabbat when you were little?
- Of course, since the time of the covenant.
- Every seven days?! Why so many, Savta?
- Shabbat is a time for rest, family, our people, and God.
- Family like Savta and Saba?
- Yes, and you, Eema, and Abba, of course. Close friends are like family, too.
- Who else?
- We honor our fellow citizens on Shabbat.
- Strangers, Savta?
- We're all God's people, even friends we haven't met. But most important of all, we honor God and all His works. We rest because He rested on the seventh day. We rest to refresh our souls, to know Him better.
- Woman of valor, who can find her?
- This is the Eshet Chayil, an ode to women of valor.
- Far beyond jewels is her value. Her husband's heart, trusts in her, and he should lack no fortune.
- There.
- May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.
- May God make you like Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah.
- The sixth day. And the heaven and earth, and all their hosts, were completed. And God finished by the seventh day all His work that He had done. Blessed are you, Lord, our God, King of the universe. From all His work that God created to function, He creates the fruit of the vine. Amen.
