It was as if Tsion Ben-Judah was in some international witness protection program. Vicki was at Loretta’s home when he was smuggled in under the cover of night. Amanda and Chloe greeted him warmly and compassionately. Vicki had talked with Judd briefly from their plane and knew the truth about his family. She stayed in the background and watched.

Loretta had a light snack waiting for all of them. “I’m old and not too up on things,” she said, “but I’m quickly getting the picture here. The less I know about your friend, the better, am I right?”

Before anyone could answer, Tsion said, “I am deeply grateful for your hospitality.”

Loretta soon trundled off to bed, expressing her delight in offering her home in service to the Lord.

Buck and Tsion had been injured. Chloe hobbled with them into the living room, followed by a chuckling Amanda. “I wish Rayford were here,” she said. “I feel like the only one who can walk without a limp. I’m going to have to do every chore that requires two good legs around here.”

Chloe leaned forward and reached for Tsion’s hand with both of hers. “Dr. Ben-Judah, we have heard so much about you. We feel blessed of God to have you with us. We can’t imagine your pain.”

The rabbi took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, his lips quivering. “I cannot tell you how deeply grateful I am that God has brought me here. I confess my heart is broken. I cannot deny God’s presence, yet there are times I wonder how I will go on. I must pray for relief from bitterness and hatred. Most of all, I feel terrible guilt that I brought this upon my wife and children. I don’t know what else I could have done, short of trying to make them more secure. I could not have avoided serving God in the way he has called me.”

Amanda and Buck each put a hand on Tsion’s shoulders. They all wept and prayed. They talked well into the night, Buck explaining that Tsion would be the object of an international manhunt, which would no doubt be approved by Nicolae Carpathia himself.
