That made Abdullah laugh all the more, and as their circle spun
and widened, Rayford wondered when the flame would die down and
the world would find out that God had once again triumphed over
the evil one.



An older couple directly across from him gazed at each other as
the circle turned, their smiles huge and wonder-filled. "I'm on
fire!" the woman shouted.

"I am too!" the man said, and hopped awkwardly, nearly pulling
her and others down as he kept one foot in the air, showing her
the fire engulfing his entire leg.

Rayford glanced past them, aware of something strange and
wondering what could be stranger than this. Here and there within
his range of vision, which extended only about thirty feet, was
the occasional huddled bundle of clothes or a robe that evidenced
a person still curled on the ground.

Rayford pulled away from Abdullah and a young man on his other
side and made his way to one of those on the ground. He knelt and
put a hand on the man's shoulder, trying to get him to rise or at
least look up. The man wrenched away, wailing, quivering, crying
out, " God, save me!"

"You're safe!" Rayford said. "Look! See! We are ablaze and yet we
are unharmed! God is with us!"

The man shook his head and folded himself further within his arms
and legs.

"I am without God!" the man wailed.

"That can't be! You're safe! You're alive! Look around you!"

But the man would not be consoled, and Rayford found others, men
and women, some teenagers, in the same wretched condition.



"People! People! People!" It was clearly the voice of Tsion Ben-
Judah, and Rayford had the feeling it came from nearby, but he
could not see the rabbi. "There will be time to rejoice and to
celebrate and to praise and thank the God of Israel! For now,
listen to me!"
