        The text published here, for the first time, with translation and commentary, is a work attributed to Shenoute, the 4th-5th century abbot of the White Monastery in Upper Egypt. The work is based on the theme God never turns his face from those who truly worship him, and contains six distinctive miraculous episodes.
