Jesus of Nazareth—Transition and Adolescence (Part 7)

The adolescent Jesus’ profound periods of meditation, his frequent journeys to the hilltop for prayer, and the many strange ideas which he advanced from time to time, thoroughly alarmed his mother. Sometimes she thought the lad was beside himself, and then she would steady her fears, remembering that he was, after all, a child of promise and in some manner different from other youths. The reading encompassed Paper 126:3.7-4.9, p. 1390
