The Narrative of Zosimus Concerning the Life of the Blessed

Unknown

Section 22

About this work

Author: Unknown

XXII. And I, Cryseos, being one of

those

in

the

desert

,

spread

it

abroad

and

gave

it

to

all

that

were

willing

to

learn

it

and

profit

by

it

.

Therefore

the

angels

of

God

helped

to

bury

the

body

of

Zosimus

as

a

precious

gift

,

and

we

saw

the

soul

of

the

blessed

one

shining

seven

times

brighter

than

the

sun

.

And

straightway

upon

that

place

there

came

up

seven

palm

-

trees

and

overshadowed

the

cave

.

There

came

up

also

a

fountain

of

water

in

that

place

,

holy

water

,

and

unto

this

day

a

healing

and

salvation

to

all

the

sick

that

come

to

it

.

Peace

be

to

all

that

have

heard

the

memorial

of

the

holy

Zosimus

;

the

Lord

is

the

advocate

and

helper

of

all

to

the

endless

ages

of

ages

.

Amen

.
