The wedding party
Narguess was the daughter of Yeshoua, the son of the César of Rom, and from her mother she had a relationship with “ Shamun A’saffa” the successor of Jesus the son of Mary [ pbhh ].
When Narguess was thirteen years old, her grandfather who was the Roman emperor decided to give the hand of her granddaughter to one of his grandsons, who was also Narguess’s cousin.
So the Roman emperor invited many important people from his nation for the wedding ceremony; their number was more than three hundred priests and clergymen; also some illustrious men from the descendants of the twelve Apostles of Jesus son of Mary; and nine hundred men and women from the aristocratic families and finally his military high ranking commanders.
The strange fall of the Crosses
The servants of the Palace took a precious litter, which was adorned with innumerable beautiful gems before the emperor of Rome. They installed many Crosses around the precious litter for the marriage ceremony; soon after the future groom came on and stood on the litter, the archbishops and the bishops stood up from their seats, to show him their utter respect.
Everything was ready for the ceremony to get started according to the court etiquette. By the emperor’s order, the archbishops opened their Bibles to recite the wedding vows; but suddenly, the Crosses around the litter fell down unexpectedly on the ground…! The pedestals of the litter began to tremble and moved from their places, so that the frightened groom fell down on the ground in front of the astonished people…!
When the archbishops saw that strange incident, they got deeply frightened and stunned : because the fall of the Crosses, just at the beginning of the wedding ceremony was a terrible, sinister event for all the Christians…
The archbishops came beside the Roman emperor and said most respectfully:” O, great Emperor…! We beseech you! Let us not perform this doomed marriage ceremony! Maybe this unfortunate wedding would demolish the Christian Government, the Church of Christ, and its submitted societies in the near future…! ”
