“ We don’t have any regular bread,” the priest replied.“ But there is the holy bread, which you can have if your young men have not slept with any women recently.”“ Don’t worry,” David replied.“ I never allow my men to be with women when we are on a campaign. And since they stay clean even on ordinary trips, how much more on this one!”
This letter is from James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ. I am writing to the“ twelve tribes”— Jewish believers scattered abroad. Greetings!
In fact, that is why the twelve tribes of Israel zealously worship God night and day, and they share the same hope I have. Yet, Your Majesty, they accuse me for having this hope!
