Some people brought even their children to Jesus so he could touch them. When the followers saw this, they told them to stop. But Jesus called for the children saying, "Let the little children come to me. Don't stop them, because the kingdom of God belongs to people who are like these children. I tell you the truth, you must accept the kingdom of God as if you were a child, or you will never enter it."- Luke 18:15-17 New Century Version.
This is one of my favorite moments in the New Testament and I love your drawing of it, only Paul didn't come until after Jesus accended to heaven. That happens in Acts. Other than that, it is a great drawing.

You're right, my mistake, I guess I was going for more emotion than accuracy.
We live, we learn. Thank you for the information.

My apologies for my ignorance, but, this is a romanticized version of the scene.
The intent was done in love, not historical accuracy.
But, my apologies for my mistake anyway.

I realized that right after I posted that comment--my apologies! When I hear Paul's name, I tend to bristle; I never trusted him, to be honest.

Yeah, even amongst religious scholars and simple believers,Paul is pretty much considered the "Oscar the grouch" of the apostles.
To this day I don't understand his hang up with women...what a grump!

Didn't he mention health problems in one of his letters? Chronic ill-health can make anyone irritable...
