This passage might feel a bit of a left turn, but it gives us a rare glimpse into the interpersonal relationships of the early church. When we read Scripture through our modern context it can feel distant, describing a moment in time that is tough to have a reference for. But passages like these resonate in their humanness. You get a sense of the raw emotion of almost losing a friend, the fear and anxiety, but also the joy of healing and restoration.
