Now David, after serving God's purposes in his own generation, fell asleep and was laid among his forefathers and did undergo decay,

but he whom God raised to life did not undergo it.

reassuring the disciples and encouraging them to stand by the faith and reminding them that we have to undergo many hardships to get into the Kingdom of God.

Join them, undergo the rites of purification with them, and pay their expenses so that they can have their heads shaved. Then everybody will understand that there is no truth in the stories about you, but that you yourself observe the Law.
