"Jesus gave the reason for this arrangement, namely, that at the beginning of his first mission to redeem mankind, he chose from his disciples twelve men whom he called Apostles, because he was alone; but now he says that at his second coming he has come with his mother and, that since she is the one who asked God the Father for this mission, it is appropriate that she gets people of her kind on the team of the Apostles of the new community, the second generation."
