Miracle of Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ: Miraculous visions at the tomb of Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ by his student Gabra Krǝstos And again, hear the second miracle that occurred and remains until now through the power of our father Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ, as seen by the good Gabra Krǝstos, his son. On one of the nights, when he went to pray according to his custom, he said: "When I stood near the tomb, I saw the church, spacious, with its walls and its entire structure shining like the sun." And this honor and grace that occurred through the power of our father Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ, on account of the honor of his bones that lie within, which are more precious than natural pearls, of wondrous beauty, and which shine brighter than the sun, the moon, and the stars for those who believe in him, and which give us faith, his right hand and his grace forever and ever. Amen.

Third miracle: Hear what our fathers told us concerning the greatness of this [monastery], from among that which is buried within it, the bones of our father Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ, and she who bore him and suckled him at her breasts. And our father became like Abraham, to whom the Lord said, “I have multiplied your seed like the stars of heaven, and through your seed all the peoples of the earth shall be blessed.” Likewise it came to pass: we have heard and seen that the fame of their miracles spreads throughout the whole world. May the blessing of our father and the gift of his little ones be with us. Amen.

Fourth miracle of our father: his bones, which were hidden for seven generations from the time of his death, were gathered together. All the monks agreed that they should place them in a high and good place. Through the instruction of these words, the wise and his bones, the miracles of our father, both near and far, which you have gathered together with the monks of the monastery. May God grant you all grace and remove all your sorrow and heal your affliction, through the prayer of our father Madḫānina ʾƎgziʾ and the intercession of all his beloved, and through the humility and supplication of Mary the Virgin, his mother, may He grant you peace in the new world, forever and ever, amen and amen. So be it, so be it.
