The opposition to Christ is getting stronger and stronger (Matthew 9:34). Christ does not turn his back on people, but he lets his message sound even louder and more powerful. He increases the effect of his message by appointing twelve disciples and making them competent to also proclaim the gospel.
1 Puis, ayant appelé ses douze disciples, il leur donna le pouvoir de chasser les esprits impurs, et de guérir toute maladie et toute infirmité.
