- main: History of the hermit ʾAbbǝloen ( )
General description
The narrative recounts, how Athanasius returns to Alexandria↗ after the emperor Jovian (here called ዮንያኖስ) re-established the Christian faith. In Alexandria Athanasius performs a miracle resurrecting a woman named ከስምያና. He meets Basil the Great , with whom he discusses, who is the most perfect monk in the land of Egypt. Archangel Michael appears and decides that it is ʾAbbǝlo. After that, a few anecdotes from the life of ʾAbbǝlo are told. The texts ends with a "testament", in which ʾAbbǝlo gives instructions on monastic life.
