Ganid

Ganid was the brilliant young son of the Indian merchant Gonod, and Jesus served as his tutor during the Mediterranean world tour that ran through Jesus' twenty-eighth and twenty-ninth years, leaving Jerusalem in April of A.D. 22 (130:0.1). Jesus spent about half of each day teaching the lad and acting as interpreter during his father's business conferences (130:0.5). The two developed a great affection for each other, and Gonod many times tried to persuade Jesus to return with them to India, but Jesus always declined, pleading the necessity of returning to his family in Palestine (130:0.7).
