From the ancient caravan city of Avdat in the Negev Desert, we reflect on the Parable of the Pearl of Great Price.

Jesus compares the Kingdom of Heaven to a single pearl worth everything—a startling image for His listeners. Through history and Scripture, we discover a Kingdom born through suffering and transformed into glory.

As Holy Week begins, this episode invites us to recognize the incomparable worth of the Kingdom and to giveeverything in response.
