3/11 • Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew A palm tree bends to feed Mary during the flight into Egypt. Dragons and wild animals recognize the child Jesus. These are some of the memorable scenes in this early medieval Latin Christian infancy gospel, whose precise date remains debated. Much of the story follows Mary's own childhood before reaching Jesus' birth. Spirit Nation has Walker's 1870 translation, including its prefatory letters and all 42 chapters, for reading this tradition in its historical English form. https://t.co/T75WjuiT0R
