    Martha was working in the kitchen to earn Jesus’ approval, while Mary was sitting in the living room listening to Him teach. But Jesus had no problem with Mary. Why? Because our love of Him must come before our service.

    Saul was a very, very good Jew. He saw the emerging Church in the months after the first Pentecost as a threat on multiple levels.
