The episode contains a couple of great scenes: Matthew's reconcilliation with his parents, which is quite moving and it brought me to tears as Matthew is one of my favourite characters from among the Apostles; Jesus sending the Apostles on their missionary work, and Jesus explaining to Little John why He didn't heal him, the scene at the very end when Peter gives the pep-talk to the other Apostles before they set off for their journey, which shows him as a natural leader. The rest feels a bit like filler, though it pays off to wait for the couple of the good scenes I mentioned above. What is quite problematic is that some of the apostles are depicted as married or about to marry, which creates a tension between the fact that Jesus sends them on their mission and their wives' resonable expectations that the husbands stay by their side. The Apostles were not married in the Bible and the romance subplot introduces unnecessary complications.
