“As good as it gets. The beast does not get to the bottom, and there are no people here at all.”
“Oh, you are good, Judas. If it were not for the land that you found, you would have to fill up with stones alone, but this is not good ” concluded the righteous works of Joachim with authoritative words. “Let's take a break and go away then.”
Tearing a couple of bags, Shabtai and Jude wrapped the body of John in them. And then the problems started. The body was completely numbed, despite the heat of the day and did not bend, so they decided to tie it to the donkey’s back almost along the ridge of the animal, with the hope that the weight would hang on both sides under its own weight after several kilometers. However, the donkey, on whose back they decided to tie the corpse, categorically rejected this idea. He struggled, kicking, striving to hook someone with his hind legs, and, bulging his eyes, screamed so that in Joachim his hair stood on end at the thought that the stubborn animal would be heard not only in the nearest village, but possibly in Jerusalem itself.
Crazy from the fight with a donkey, people tried to find a way out. Shabtai offered to move obstinate cattle between the eyes butt, Jude thought to try to give the animal some water. Joakim rejected both proposals, arguing that the nasty beast would most likely die from either an ax or wine, but would not carry the dead. The solution was surprisingly simple. The second donkey, on which they tried to adapt the body of the dead guy, just stared in surprise at the unusual weight. And that's all. To fall, to twitch and shout a good mat he did not begin.
Soon the funeral procession set off towards the city. Two kilometers from Zipory the caravan stopped. Judah went to explore and soon returned with good news. The grave was almost ready. There were no people in the cemetery area due to the terrible heat and the absence of other dead people in the city today. The second day of an unusual journey was walking towards sunset, when, to put it in high style, the body of a young man who gave his life for the honor of his beloved found peace.
Before the shepherds went to the flock, Joachim personally reminded them of the need to keep their mouths shut, looking at them with a heavy look. People are imbued.
