In this chapter we know that after the Bishop finishes his job he will roam around and when someone needs his help they will just call him out and he will go. He will visit the poor as long as he has money and visit the rich when he needs money. In order to calm the Bishop down he meditates and writes about what he witness.
In this chapter what I have understood was that the Bishop was not a powerful man, he stayed in the shade instead of the spotlight. Although he prayed and loved. He was a very humble man, but was full of love and very kind.
In this chapter Jean Valjean was being sent to prison for stealing a bread. He believes the punishment is too harsh because I mean 19 years of just stealing something because you're trying to survive is cruel. The society had failed Jean and that's why he hated it. Prison turned Jean into pained man who later became sad and empty. He was known as a very dangerous man who can hurt others. This wouldn't make sense for him to be around the Bishop but since the Bishop has a warm heart he is willing to help him.
