The
disciples are seen bundling in a secret place for fear of Jews. The ‘Jews’ here
means the hostile powers that work against Jesus. To these fearful disciples
Jesus brings transformation, leading the disciples from the darkness of fear,
unbelief and distress into the lights of peace, joy of the risen Lord and the
Spirit. He breathes on them as if he is making them of a new creation, new
humanity from the fearful apostles. Jesus does so again and again even today.
