[ It is observable that the apostles are here named in pairs , which coincides with Mark ' s statement , that they were sent two by two . ] These twelve Jesus sent forth , charging them , and saying : "Go not into the way of the Gentiles , nor enter into any city of the Samaritans ; but go rather to
