Christian Socialists Are Reclaiming Faith from the Right

9. Where do you get traveling bands?

"However, I am inclined to say the question of whether they were a traveling band of sorcerers or not is quite beside the point. — Otherwise the four canonical Gospels would have been more explicit about it, rather than simply assigning them portentous names."

Where do you get a traveling band from? My point was Mary Magdalene might have been saved from a job involving sorcery, which had made her both wealthy and possessed.

The couple in Acts 5 may have withheld a portion of the proceeds from the sale of their souls due to being involved in a similar profession. Suppose their way of death was meant to be taken as a euphemism for being killed by the mob for holding back and not putting their faith into their salvation from the mob?

And, perhaps the point of the early communities was to save the blacklisted, until society was converted enough to not require extra support to stay out of the mob, rather than redistribution in general.
