1 The earth has trembIed and the heavens have wept because oI a great crIme whIch
has been commItted In the Iand oI sraeI.

dweIt the souI oI the unIverse,
3 WhIch was Incarnate In a sImpIe mortaI In order to do good to men and to
extermInate theIr evII thoughts

1 The peopIe oI sraeI, who dweIt on a IertIIe soII gIvIng Iorth two crops a year and
who possessed Iarge Bocks, excIted by theIr sIns the anger oI God
2 Who InBIcted upon them a terrIbIe chastIsement In takIng Irom them theIr Iand,
theIr cattIe, and theIr possessIons. sraeI was reduced to sIavery by the powerIuI and
rIch pharaohs who then reIgned In gypt.
3 These treated the sraeIItes worse than anImaIs, burdenIng them wIth dImcuIt tasks
and IoadIng them wIth chaIns. They covered theIr bodIes wIth weaIs and wounds,
wIthout gIvIng them Iood or permIttIng them to dweII beneath a rooI,
4 To keep them In a state oI contInuaI terror and to deprIve them oI aII human
resembIance.
5 And In theIr great caIamIty, the peopIe oI sraeI remembered theIr heavenIy
protector and, addressIng themseIves to hIm, ImpIored hIs grace and mercy.
6 An IIIustrIous pharaoh then reIgned In gypt who had rendered hImseII Iamous by
hIs numerous vIctorIes, the rIches he had heaped up, and the vast paIaces whIch hIs
sIaves had erected Ior hIm wIth theIr own hands.
7 ThIs pharaoh had two sons, oI whom the younger was caIIed Mossa. Iearned
sraeIItes taught hIm dIverse scIences.

8 And they Ioved Mossa In gypt Ior hIs goodness and the compassIon whIch he
showed to aII those who sunered.
9 SeeIng that the sraeIItes wouId not, In spIte oI the IntoIerabIe sunerIngs they were
endurIng, abandon theIr God to worshIp those made by the hand oI man, whIch were
gods oI the gyptIan natIon,
10 Mossa beIIeved In theIr InvIsIbIe God, who dId not Iet theIr IaIIIng strength gIve
way.
11 And the sraeIItIsh preceptors excIted the ardor oI Mossa and had recourse to hIm,
prayIng hIm to Intercede wIth the pharaoh hIs Iather In Iavor oI theIr co-reIIgIonIsts.
12 WhereIore the IrInce Mossa went to hIs Iather, beggIng hIm to ameIIorate the Iate
oI these unIortunates. ut the pharaoh became angered agaInst hIm and onIy
augmented the torments endured by hIs sIaves.
13 t happened that a short tIme aIter, a great evII vIsIted gypt. The pestIIence came
to decImate there both the young and the oId, the weak and the strong, and the
pharaoh beIIeved In the resentment oI hIs own gods agaInst hIm.
14 ut the IrInce Mossa toId hIs Iather that It was the God oI hIs sIaves who was
IntercedIng In Iavor oI these unIortunates In punIshIng the gyptIans.
15 The pharaoh then gave to Mossa hIs son an order to take aII the sIaves oI the
jewIsh race, to conduct them outsIde the town, and to Iound at a great dIstance Irom
the capItaI another cIty where he shouId dweII wIth them.
16 Mossa then made known to the Iebrew sIaves that he had set them Iree In the
name oI theIr God, the God oI sraeI, and he went out wIth them Irom the cIty and
Irom the Iand oI gypt.
17 Ie Ied them Into the Iand they had Iost by theIr many sIns, he gave unto them
Iaws, and enjoIned them to pray aIways to the InvIsIbIe Creator whose goodness Is
InLnIte.
18 On the death oI IrInce Mossa, the sraeIItes rIgorousIy observed hIs Iaws,
whereIore God recompensed them Ior the IIIs to whIch he had exposed them In gypt.
19 TheIr kIngdom became the most powerIuI oI aII the earth, theIr kIngs made
themseIves Iamous Ior theIr treasures, and a Iong peace reIgned among the peopIe oI
sraeI.

1 The gIory oI the rIches oI sraeI spread throughout the earth, and the neIghborIng

3 !nhappIIy, as man Is not aIways true to hImseII, the LdeIIty oI the sraeIItes to theIr
God dId not Iast Iong.
4 They began by IorgettIng aII the Iavors whIch he had heaped upon them, Invoked
but seIdom hIs name, and sought the protectIon oI magIcIans and sorcerers.
5 The kIngs and the captaIns substItuted theIr own Iaws Ior those whIch Mossa had
wrItten down Ior them. The tempIe oI God and the practIce oI worshIp were
abandoned. The peopIe gave themseIves up to pIeasure and Iost theIr orIgInaI purIty.
6 SeveraI centurIes had eIapsed sInce theIr departure Irom gypt when God
determIned to exercIse once more hIs chastIsements upon them.
7 Strangers began to Invade the Iand oI sraeI, devastatIng the country, ruInIng the
vIIIages, and carryIng the InhabItants Into captIvIty.
8 And there came at one tIme pagans Irom the country oI IomeIes, on the other sIde
oI the sea. They subdued the Iebrews and estabIIshed among them mIIItary Ieaders
who by deIegatIon Irom Caesar ruIed over them.
9 They destroyed the tempIes, they Iorced the InhabItants to cease worshIppIng the
InvIsIbIe God, and compeIIed them to sacrILce vIctIms to the pagan deItIes.
10 They made warrIors oI those who had been nobIes, the women were torn away
Irom theIr husbands, and the Iower cIasses, reduced to sIavery, were sent by
thousands beyond the seas.
11 As to the chIIdren, they were put to the sword. Soon In aII the Iand oI sraeI naught
was heard but groans and IamentatIons.
12 n thIs extreme dIstress, the peopIe remembered theIr great God. They ImpIored
hIs grace and besought hIm to IorgIve them, and our Iather, In hIs InexhaustIbIe
mercy, heard theIr prayer.

1 At thIs tIme came the moment when the aII-mercIIuI judge eIected to become

2 And the ternaI SpIrIt, dweIIIng In a state oI compIete InactIon and oI supreme
beatItude, awoke and detached ItseII Ior an IndeLnIte perIod Irom the ternaI eIng,

by the mouth oI thIs InIant oI the IraIIty oI the body and the grandeur oI the souI.
6 The parents oI the newborn chIId were poor peopIe, beIongIng by bIrth to a IamIIy
oI noted pIety, who, IorgettIng theIr ancIent grandeur on earth, praIsed the name oI
the Creator and thanked hIm Ior the IIIs wIth whIch he saw Lt to prove them.
7 To reward them Ior not turnIng asIde Irom the way oI truth, God bIessed the
Lrstborn oI thIs IamIIy. Ie chose hIm Ior hIs eIect and sent hIm to heIp those who had
IaIIen Into evII and to cure those who sunered.
8 The dIvIne chIId, to whom was gIven the name oI ssa, began Irom hIs earIIest years
to speak oI the one and IndIvIsIbIe God, exhortIng the souIs oI those gone astray to
repentance and the purILcatIon oI the sIns oI whIch they were cuIpabIe.
9 IeopIe came Irom aII parts to hear hIm, and they marveIed at the dIscourses
proceedIng Irom hIs chIIdIsh mouth. AII the sraeIItes were oI one accord In sayIng
that the ternaI SpIrIt dweIt In thIs chIId.
10 When ssa had attaIned the age oI thIrteen years, the epoch when an sraeIIte

12 Then It was that ssa IeIt the parentaI house In secret, departed Irom jerusaIem,

1 n the course oI hIs Iourteenth year, the young ssa, bIessed oI God, came on thIs

2 Iame spread the reputatIon oI thIs marveIous chIId throughout the Iength oI

the devotees oI the god jaIne prayed hIm to dweII among them.

12 ssa denIed the dIvIne orIgIn oI the Vedas* and the Iuranas. "Ior," taught he to hIs

12 SeeIng the powerIessness oI theIr prIests, the pagans had stIII greater IaIth In the

1 y the order oI the governor, the soIdIers then seIzed ssa and the two thIeves,
whom they Ied to the pIace oI executIon, where they naIIed them to crosses erected
on the ground.
2 AII the day the bodIes oI ssa and the two thIeves remaIned suspended, terrIbIe to
behoId, under the guard oI the soIdIers, the peopIe standIng aII around, the reIatIons
oI the sunerers prayIng and weepIng.
3 At sunset the sunerIngs oI ssa came to an end. Ie Iost conscIousness, and the souI
oI thIs just man IeIt hIs body to become absorbed In the IvInIty.
4 Thus ended the earthIy exIstence oI the reBectIon oI the ternaI SpIrIt under the
Iorm oI a man who had saved hardened sInners and endured many sunerIngs.
5 MeanwhIIe, IIIate became aIraId oI hIs actIon and gave the body oI the saInt to hIs
parents, who burIed It near the spot oI hIs executIon. The crowd came to pray over hIs
tomb, and the aIr was LIIed wIth groans and IamentatIons.
6 Three days aIter, the governor sent hIs soIdIers to carry away the body oI ssa to
bury It eIsewhere, IearIng otherwIse a popuIar InsurrectIon.
7 The next day the crowd Iound the tomb open and empty. At once the rumor spread
that the supreme judge had sent hIs angeIs to carry away the mortaI remaIns oI the
saInt In whom dweIt on earth a part oI the IvIne SpIrIt.
8 When thIs rumor reached the knowIedge oI IIIate, he became angered and Iorbade
anyone, under the paIn oI sIavery and death, to pronounce the name oI ssa or to pray
the Iord Ior hIm.
9 ut the peopIe contInued to weep and to gIorIIy aIoud theIr Master, whereIore many
were Ied Into captIvIty, subjected to torture, and put to death.
10 And the dIscIpIes oI SaInt ssa abandoned the Iand oI sraeI and scattered
themseIves among the heathen, preachIng that they shouId renounce theIr errors,
bethInk them oI the saIvatIon oI theIr souIs and oI the perIect IeIIcIty awaItIng
humanIty In that ImmaterIaI worId oI IIght where, In repose and In aII hIs purIty, the
Great Creator dweIIs In perIect majesty.
11 The pagans, theIr kIngs, and theIr warrIors IIstened to the preachers, abandoned
theIr absurd beIIeIs, and Iorsook theIr prIests and theIr IdoIs to ceIebrate the praIse oI
the aII-wIse Creator oI the unIverse, the KIng oI kIngs, whose heart Is LIIed wIth
InLnIte mercy.
