It's so compelling to imagine Saint Luke meeting one of his heroes and heroines in Our Lady Mary.

Is it possible that not just the Ephesus meeting, but no meeting anywhere, ever took place between the two?

Tree-safety decisions can be made here about trees overhanging or touching public-domain land, such as the 3-foot area from the street pavement lot-ward.

Do British Isles-ers have to make a risky situation of a dangerous-located, dangerous-looking, dangerous-sized tree non-risky if public-domain land, such as roadsides and sidewalks, is affected?

(In the United States, that cooperation is between the landowner and the state Department of Transportation.)

Online sources give no vocal range for J.R.R. Tolkien even as some indicate a mumbling from a lacerated-tongue injury as a school rugby player.

Is there any information anywhere that you know of as to the Tolkien voice range?

The second paragraph to the second subheading, Reflections, advises us that "And yet the farmer's dream of passing on the land to their children cannot be Humble's."

Is it known whether the land will be sold to the best bidder or to some friend or relative?

Your answer advises us that "One sweet potato out of five produced a small crop."

The Holy Family on such a long journey intrigues me.

Might each one have had their own donkey?

Augustus Caesar also mistreated Caesarion (Jun 23, 47 BC-Aug 29, 30 BC). The latter's royal names Theos Philopator Philometor (God loving father, loving mother") offer him as a more people-sensitive ruler than the former.

Caesarion's interest in and involvement with ancient India and Iran present him as more open about other cultures and histories.

Relatedly because about Rome, would Vatican City be on ancient grounds developed before, during, much after the above-mentioned times?

The derivative is a method of finding instantaneous change at a point. Calculus does not concern itself with long term change. That would be slope in algebra.

Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.

English Wikipedia associates the name Origen (A.D. 185?-A.D. 253?) with the Greek Ὠριγένης (from Ὧρος, "Horus" and γένος, "born"), as "child of Horus."

It describes as Origen's father Leonidas of Alexandria (died A.D. 202). The latter died beheaded for his Christian beliefs.

English Wiktionary explains Leonidas as from the Greek Λεωνῐ́δᾱς (from λέων, "lion"; -ῐ́δᾱς, "son"), as "son of a lion."

Might such names -- especially "Horus' child"! -- be unusual or usual for Christians?
