Summary

Portrait of William James Roe William James Roe,  Chapters From the New Apocrypha… (1893)

“ Then the lawyer answered, Can a man have two mothers? This woman whom I have brought unto thee, she is his mother.
Jesus saith unto him, Nay, not so. After the fashion of this world was he born of her.
That which is born of flesh is flesh. She gave him body and he shall give unto her meat.
But unto her who gave him love shall he give love; and who gave him a home in his youth shall he give a home in her old age.
For verily I say unto you, she only is a mother who is motherly.
Love only is love that is lovely.
God only is God being godly.
