Everything in his life changed when his brother-in-law, Simon from Cyrene, was awoken one night by a frightening vision causing some of the family, with their Judeo-Indian partners to take Simon to Jerusalem for Passover. Preparing for another Indian voyage, in the city of Alexandria, Jacobus encountered the apostle Thomas entering a synagogue.
